-- The Mission --
Our Mission is to improve the lives of these individuals through the use of equine related therapy.

-- Therapeutic Riding --
Therapeutic riding has long been recognized as effective in improving the physical, emotional and mental development of riders facing a variety of physical or cognitive challenges.

Research shows that students who participate in therapeutic riding experience physical, emotional and mental rewards.

For riders with impaired mobility, horseback riding gently and rhythmically moves their bodies in a manner similar to a human walking gait. The rider must continuously contract and relax muscles to re-balance, improving balance, strength, and flexibility.

-- Who Participates --
Individuals with learning or mental disabilities can be motivated by riding to increase concentration, patience and discipline. If a psychological or emotional disability is present, the unique relationship formed with a horse can help improve interpersonal relationships. And all riders can benefit from improved self-image and coping skills.

Riders who have benefited from our therapeutic program include those with:
Cerebral Palsy
Down Syndrome
Autism
Stroke
Spinal Cord Injuries
Mental Retardation
Multiple Sclerosis
Emotional Disabilities
Learning Disabilities
Spina Bifida
Amputations
Developmental Disabilities
