What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Therapeutic Horseback Riding
The main program offered is therapeutic horseback riding. We offer mounted and unmounted instruction to children and adults with physical or mental challenges. The mounted instruction includes the participant learning how to properly mount the horse, control the horse, and develop a basic balanced position while riding. During the riding lesson the riders will develop riding skills while increasing muscle tone and increasing a sense of mastery. The unmounted instruction includes learning to halter, lead, groom and tack up the horse. During the unmounted instruction the participant develops skills that improve communication, socialization and balance. While participating they will gain a sense of control and confidence.
