Our Mission
Our
mission is to introduce children and adults alike to the enjoyment of
riding horses in a safe and fun environment. We try to meet the riding
needs of each individual person while teaching the basics of horse
care.
Our mission also is to provide a safe and loving
environment for all horses boarded at our facility. Each horse is
treated as one of our own. We desire to treat every customer as part of
our family. We want everyone to feel welcome and have a good time when
they come here.
What Do We Teach?
We
teach beginner and intermediate horsemanship. We teach riding western
or english. We also teach specialized classes in barrel racing, jumping
and showing. My first desire for each student is to teach them to
ride with confindence and knowledge of how to handle their horse in
different situations. From this we go on to more difficult things as
advanced trail riding and obstacle courses, barrels and jumps.
We teach on tennessee walking horses and quarter horses. These horses are very versital in many different areas.
Therapeutic Riding
Therapeutic
riding is an emerging field in which horses are used as a tool for
physical therapy, emotional growth and learning. Many riders experience
a connection to the horse that few sports can create. For those riders
who cannot walk, the horse is their vehicle of transport. Not only does
this help raise their self-esteem but it also teaches them essential
skills. It improves balance, creates trust and creates a friendship
between rider and horse.
For
individuals with mental or emotional disabilities, the unique
relationship formed with the horse can lead to increased confidence,
patience and self-esteem. The sense of independence found on horseback
benefits all who ride. The therapeutic qualities of horseback riding are
recognized by many medical professionals, including the American
Physical Therapy Association and the American Occupational Therapy
Association.
Individuals
of all ages, with a wide range of physical, cognitive and/or emotional
disabilities benefit from therapeutic horseback riding and other equine
activities. The types of disabilities and conditions served include:
- Amputee
- Autism
- Brain Injuries
- Cardiovascular Accident/Stroke
- Cerebral Palsy
- Down Syndrome
- Hearing Impairments
- Learning Disabilities
- Mental Retardation
- Visual Impairments
