How many horses should be in an indoor arena?
My barn is very busy and allows up to 8 horses in the indoor arena at any time. This includes 3 trainers/lessons. Is that too crowded? Or is it just me.
I would say the arena is larger than a standard arena but not enormous.
it depends on how big your arena is. If it is huge, it probably doesn't matter. 8 is a lot but that's not ridiculous. consider yourself lucky, there has been 14 horses in the arena I ride in, including multiple lessons and its ridiculous!
I'd recommend finding a time when there is less people in the arena to ride. That way, itll be much less crouded!
