Being a riding instructor is more than a job - it's a lifestyle.  In today's digital age, horseback riding isn't just about saddles and reins it's also about smart tools to help instructors manage lessons, improve the rider experience, reduce stress and bring back the joys of teaching. Here's how software can help you create a work life balance.

Automate scheduling and lesson management

Manually coordinating lesson times, handling last minute cancellations and answering constant messages can drain your day. But EC Pro’s scheduling software can:

• Let students book and reschedule on their own with peace of mind
• Send automatic reminders for clients 
• No more double bookings
• Track horse use and avoid burnout for you and them

Manage lesson horses and their needs

EC Pro can track horse work schedules, health records, feeding and farrier visits. You’ll know at first glance which horses are due for a rest. Preventing lesson horses from being overworked and keep your horses in top shape for lessons.

• Monitor horses workloads and rotation
• Ensure a lesson horse is never overworked
• Log and receive reminders for all horse care needs - vet, farrier, chiropractor

This helps you maintain a sustainable teaching schedule while keeping your horses healthy and happy.

Track rider progress

Keeping notes on each student's progress helps personalize lessons and show their growth overtime within your program. Creating goals and levels is a great way to keep riders engaged outside the saddle.

• Note can be exchanged with riders throughout their riding journey
• Log exercises, skills practiced and goals
• Monitor who students rode in past lessons

Simplify paperwork and payments

Whether you're in the arena or at home you'll spend less time hunting for paperwork and more time doing what matters.
