Post it AND share it. The more people you tell, the more help we can receive.

Horseback riding gently and rhythmically moves the riders body in a manner similar to a human gait. Riders with physical disabilities often show improvement in flexibility, balance and muscle strength. For individuals with mental or emotional disabilities, the unique relationship formed with the horse can lead to increased confidence, patience and self-esteem.

The amazing gifts our horses give to our riders, volunteers and staff is priceless. Each member of our herd is a treasure in a way that is unique to them; each has their own tale to tell.
