What is your billing policy?

MHRA works with a monthly billing cycle through QuickBooks.

The commitment is to ride once, twice and/or add beginning jump tuition if you are ready to start that process. $460 or $920 respectively. All lessons must be consumed in the month they are purchased or they will be forfeit. No exceptions.

All January lessons must be taken in the month of January, for instance. There will be no carry over to the next month. Much like a gym membership, or a timeshare you will be billed monthly.

What happens if it rains? You will need to schedule a make-up lesson in that month.
