Lessons & Training

Lesson types, scheduling and completing lessons, online booking, packages and credits — plus multi-week training programs for a horse.

• Setting up lesson types

  A lesson type is what you teach - its length, price per rider, how many riders fit, and whether clients can book it online.

• Scheduling a lesson

  Put a lesson on the calendar once or every week, with riders added now or filled in later.

• Riders, no-shows, and completing a lesson

  Open a lesson to manage its roster, then mark it complete and decide rider by rider who is billed, who spends a credit, and who rides free.

• Taking lesson bookings online

  Let clients book your lessons from your public page, and set when bookings open, when they close, and how they are paid.

• The lesson waitlist

  A full lesson keeps a line. When a spot opens it is held for the first person for 24 hours, then passes to the next.

• Lesson packages and credits

  Sell “10 Group Lessons · $400” from your public page. Credits land in the client’s balance and one is spent each time a lesson is completed.

• Booking a lesson (riders and owners)

  Four steps on the barn’s page - Lesson, Time, Rider, Pay - with credits, card, or your account.

• Your lessons report

  Lessons taught, riders, riders per week, and revenue - for the whole barn and broken down by lesson type.

• What training programs are

  A multi-week training plan for one horse that puts each day’s work onto the care queue when you start it.

• Creating a training program

  Start from a saved template, from blank, or have Stables AI draft it from your goal - all three create a draft you review first.

• Building a training session

  One day’s work: warm up, exercises with gait and effort, cool down, plus stop conditions, substitutions and who does it.

• Starting and tracking a training program

  Starting a program puts its training days on the care queue. After that you watch adherence, bill completed sessions, and finish, reuse or archive it.

• Training programs for horse owners

  See the plan your barn or trainer is running on your horse, how far along it is, and what’s next - or build your own.
