Riding for Credit

Miami University's Department of Sports Leadership and Management offers three horseback riding courses designed for students from beginner through advanced. Classes focus on developing the student's riding skills and cover equine topics such as history, behavior, health care, and industry impact. Classes meet once a week and are designed to instruct students beyond the basics in Hunt Seat, Western and Dressage.

On average, 400 students enroll in these two-credit courses each year and many return to complete all levels. These classes provide students with opportunities they may not have had the chance to experience.
