Thanks for this article. I have been experiencing just some of the things you listed above — tardiness, cancellation policy, students’ attitudes during group lessons, attire — and your suggestion of making columns to establish compromise and recognize what is not appropriate to compromise on is helpful.
And, from a rider’s perspective, you have also inspired me to add more stretching into my cross-training routine. I am less than a month away from the 100-mile Tevis Cup ride and while I’ve added weight training and cardio to my riding schedule, I now realize I need to stretch more than I do!
