​

Our Adaptive Horsemanship Program is an equine assisted learning program that specializes in adaptive/therapeutic horsemanship.  Our program is suitable for people of all ages with physical, emotional, psychological, and educational needs.  Specific needs should not limit us what we can do, but empower us to conquer with strength, courage and confidence.
 

The human-horse connection can be transformative and offers powerful results.  We work with parents/guardians/caregivers and the student to set individualized goals that each person sets out to achieve at his/her own pace. With the support of the instructor, volunteers, and their trusted horse, the student will be able to realize their full potential and achieve amazing results.

The horses companion will eventually understand the horses response to their own behavior patterns and emotions.
 

Our Adaptive Horsemanship Program strives to help the student:

- build empathy

- improve flexibility, balance and muscle strength

- empower a healthy social connection with horse & human

- improve impulsivity, attention & focus

- outline boundaries and personal space

- build patience, trust and confidence

- help to understand and regulate emotions

- improve awareness to non-verbal communication
