Has anyone heard of A Dear Riding School, Aintree Riding Academy, Karingalli Lodge or Yaradah Farm Riding School, just wondering if anyone knows if they are still going or had any experiences there?

I have not heard of them. About 12 months ago or so I was looking for riding schools as I wanted to get back into riding. Don't really any of these names.

I haven't been to any of the places you mentioned, but I would highly recommend Brookleigh Equestrian Estate in the Swan Valley - check out www.brookleigh.com.au
I took two lessons at Metropolitan Riding School in Armadale and will never go back there - I would stay way from them. Not very good instruction, especially for beginners, and they have you ride around in litte arenas so can't really learn to control your horse. I have also talked to other people who rode there and hated it.

Aintree shut down a while back, a girl I know actually leased the property off the guy that owned it after they shut but I don't know if they moved somewhere else. Not sure about the others though.
What area are you in? There are some great ones around, happy to reccommend if I know what will be close to you. PM me if you like.

I'm not sure if this will be of any use to you now (as it is a year after this post!) but if you're still searching I do recommend Yarrada Farm. I've been riding there for nearly 10 years now and I thoroughly enjoy my time there. I attend lessons every Saturday and despite my age I still go up for the holiday camps (I just have so much fun!). So you should definately consider this place! Give Sheryl a ring (the instructor) she's extremely friendly and knowledgable and she can take you wherever you might want to go for riding, from beginner to experienced.
