Horseback riding has been known to have therapeutic value for a long time. It is our privilege to offer the Special Riders Program. This program will serve physically and/or emotionally challenged people. The program is tailored to the needs of the rider. Some of the benefits that can be gained from this program are:
Muscle strengthening
Confidence building
Self-esteem building
Balance
Lower & upper body exercise
Coordination exercise
Tuning of gross and fine motor skills
Following instructions
Physical contact with the horse
Emotional contact with the instructor

Riders who are otherwise physically confined or movement impaired often experience a new freedom of movement when riding a horse.

The program provides someone to lead the horse as well as two side-walkers (as necessary). If applicable to the student, ground school can be included which will teach horse care skills, grooming, tacking as well as horseback work.
