WHAT WE OFFER

EQUINE-FACILITATED LEARNING (EFL)

Equine Facilitated Learning (EFL) is an unmounted, hands-on program. EFL utilizes a variety of activities to teach abstract concepts including personal boundaries, communication, self-awareness and cooperation. EFL provides avenues for students to learn appropriate social behavior, empathy, and impulse control. Students will learn to interact with horses as well as understand the horse's behavior and be able to transfer that information to their everyday lives.


Age 7+

THERAPEUTIC Riding

Therapeutic riding is an equine-assisted activity for the purpose of contributing to the cognitive and physical wellbeing of individuals with special needs. Therapeutic riding combines mounted and unmounted activities intended for therapeutic outcomes, including improved balance and coordination, increased self-confidence, and a greater feeling of freedom and independence. 


Therapeutic Riding typically begins around age 5. This is determined on a case by case basis.
