Once you have looked at the whole picture you may decide it isn't worth it. Whether you are qualified or not, whether you charge or teach for free, YOU are responsible for anything that happens. You can be sued and any worthwhile insurance company will want you to be able to prove you are qualified, the usual way is by holding ABRS exams or BHS exams.

At a time when more and more riding schools are closing due to high insurance fees please don't get tempted to teach 'friends' or for free. Because it really opens you up to a minefield of litigation.

It's such a sad state of affairs with people wanting compensation for everything nowadays.
