For centuries, horseshoes have been associated with good fortune, which is why homeowners hang them over doorways and brides lob them at groups of their single friends. Get hitched with this Groupon.

Choose Between Two Options

  • $29 for one 60-minute beginner horseback-riding lesson (a $60 value)
  • $57 for two 60-minute beginner horseback-riding lessons (a $120 value)

The lesson covers new rider safety and basic grooming, then moves onto mounting, dismounting, and controlling the horse while in the saddle. The school loans helmets for free, but riders must wear their own hard-soled shoes with a heel, and the stables recommend that riders wear riding pants or jeans and chaps or half chaps for comfort.

Clay Hill Stables

Since founding Clay Hill Stables in 1964, British Horse Society–certified instructor Emmie Prettyman has passed her vast equine expertise on to legions of horses and their riders through a variety of services. Emmie captains a team of instructors certified to teach the English style of riding as well as administer first aid and CPR, ensuring safe and sound lessons for students as young as 6. Beginner classes work to establish fundamentals both on and off the saddle, including riding positions and basic grooming and tacking. Once riders have demonstrated proficiency at the paces of walk, trot, canter, and late-to-work, they may be eligible for the intermediate/advanced class, where they build on skills with more intricate flatwork and jumping exercises.

The Groupon Guide to: Sucker Punches

People love a good, old-fashioned fist to the face, especially when they least expect it. Here are some opportune moments to deliver one of the best pranks in the book—the sucker punch:

  • When the person is looking down at the ice-cream cone they just dropped on the sidewalk

  • When the person is watching their child get on the school bus for the first time

  • When the person is staring tearfully at a defaced gravestone

  • When the person falls back into their chair involuntarily after hearing the jury’s decision

  • When the person turns back from looking where you just told them to look (over there, at a barrel of pets going over a waterfall)

  • When the person is asleep

When’s the best time to punch someone in court? Find out in today's Groupon Guide.
