Hello
I have been riding at a local school. I was never weighed and had ridden ponies at 14.2 up to 17h tbs. my school has always been a bit scatty but everyone is really nice. I came back from holiday for two weeks and a new instructor had been taken on. I went to book in and the new instructor seemed surprised when she saw I was a regular client. She asked me to weigh myself which I found really rude but she said I could no longer ride unless I could weigh myself. Anyway I stepped on the scales and I'm 18stone 11 with gear on, I'm 27 and 5ft7. Anyway the instructor said she couldn't allow me to ride until I was 16 stone but said I could do groundwork and learn to lunge etc.
Im really upset as I have ridden nearly all the horses from 14.2 and have never had a problem ,
is this normal for a school or does she just not like me?
