EQUESTRIAN PROGRAM

The Equestrian Program provides youth and adult riders, with and without disabilities, with a mix of basic equitation and horsemanship skills. When participants are not riding, Equestrian Program Facilitators strengthen rider’s understanding of how to care for horses and the importance of safety around these animals. All riding lessons customized and tailored to the individual needs and comfort level of each participant. The program is run and supported by experienced and certified staff of riding instructors.
