HORSE BACK RIDING
THERAPEUTIC RIDING
When riding a horse, all parts of the body are engaged in unison. Pressure at the base of the spine encountered during the straddled position of riding, and the mid-line activity used when the student holds the mane of a horse for balance, stimulate brain growth. The speech and motor centers of the brain are syncronized, resulting in improved language skills, balance, coordination, spatial awareness, mental clarity and strength. Activities are specifically designed for each student in conjunction with their physical, medical,emotional, and educational needs.
BALANCED RIDING
Patterned after Centered Riding, balanced riding is done bareback, focusing on the development of skills that enhance your confidence and improve your center of balance. Being bareback increases the connection with the horse allowing for better communication and awareness. What ever discipline you desire to move into, beginning here is a must. Acquiring the positive connection with your horse improves your overall performance, making a winner out of both you and your horse.

GARDEN CENTER
We are overloaded on the byproduct of raising animals, and have decided to put it back to good use. This is a garden that can be shared by all those who are enrolled in the program. As the season matures we will have groups to instruct and assist in various harvesting methods, from canning to drying...
