Equine Assisted Activites are provided and we offer Therapeutic Horseback Riding. (TR) is an adaptive way of learning the skill of riding horse while the Rider is receiving the physical benefits of the horses' movement as well as wonderful things like overcoming fear, building self esteem, gaining confidence, trust issues, tolerance of animals and others, patience, multi tasking, listening skills, following instruction, responsibility of caring for animals, fine tuning motor skills just to name some of the benefits. Each rider will be guided based on their individual ability and their ability to ride with assistance or with little assistance. We are NOT providing Hippo Therapy or EEAP (Phychotherapy).
We do not turn any family away who cannot afford Equine Asst Therapy.
