Our Therapeutic Riding classes utilize the format of a riding lesson to facilitate physical, cognitive or social goals. They are usually in a group format. Individuals practice basic riding skills such as mounting/dismounting, riding positions, maneuvering the horse, and riding at various gaits. Unmounted lessons such as grooming, tacking and leading are incorporated into the lesson plans. |
