Salt Spring Therapeutic Riding Association

Therapeutic Riding

“The Salt Spring Therapeutic Riding Association provides quality, professional equine assisted activities for both children and adults with special needs. Equine assisted activities help to improve muscle tone, balance, posture, coordination and motor development as well as psychological, cognitive, behavioral, communication and emotional well being. We are dedicated to enriching the lives of children and adults with disabilities.

Four riding sessions per year are offered in the fall, winter, spring and summer. Lessons are one hour every week. Our classes are taught by therapeutic riding instructors, and our riders are assisted by trained volunteers, as horse leaders and/or sidewalkers.” [Website]
