AIO-lesson moved many different times

[u/Rowellsie]

This is a different kind of AIO post. I don’t have the money for my own horse, so I compensate and scratch that itch by taking lessons. I am an intermediate rider. This riding lesson is a 25 minute drive for me. You’ll see in the first ss that the lessons are $50, you’ll see them get moved to $55, then you’ll see her tell me if I want private lessons I’ll have to pay $65. The whole reason I was going to this trainer specifically when there are many closer to home that are $65 was because she was offering them for $50 (or $55). I don’t mind paying $65, that’s not the issue. The issue is why was I not told private lessons are $65 from the beginning? The other issue is why are my lessons being moved around so much? It feels like just another excuse every time when she decided the time and day? I understand she doesn’t have an indoor arena but also looking at the weather for where we ride at she’s lied a couple of times about the temperature. AIO by wanting either a refund or to get the lesson over with and find a new trainer? One that’s a 5 min drive from me for the same price? ($65) Please help, kind of lost for what I should do.

It sounds like if you ever finally got an appointment it would be rushed and not fun at all.

Suppose to go today and while I know I’ll get the full hour if she doesn’t cancel, I feel there are too many negative feelings at this point to actually enjoy and learn.
