About Therapeutic Riding Events

Therapeutic riding encompasses various programs using horses to benefit individuals with physical, cognitive, and emotional challenges. The natural movement of the horse stimulates the rider's body in ways that can improve balance, coordination, strength, and motor planning. Beyond physical benefits, working with horses builds confidence, emotional regulation, and social skills. Programs range from recreational riding to hippotherapy conducted by licensed therapists.
