The Richmond Therapeutic Riding Association provides a quality therapeutic riding program for children and youth with disabilities in order to promote physical, social and psychological well being.
Therapeutic Riding is a unique therapeutic activity that provides benefit to people with various disabilities. These can include physical, mental, emotional and even learning disabilities.
Many riders experience a connection to the horse that few activities can create. For riders who cannot walk, the horse is their feet, their vehicle of transport. Riding can help raise self esteem, it can also help participants in acquiring essential skills necessary for development and personal growth. Therapeutic Riding improves balance, strength and coordination, and creates trust and friendship between rider and horse.
