Not everyone is able to – or wants to – ride horses. We offer several programs to clients who cannot take part in horseback riding due to a disability that has a contraindication to riding or a weight in excess of industry guidelines.

Grooming offers participants the chance to develop a relationship with a horse, learn horse care skills and benefit physically, psychologically and educationally.
