Mission Statement
"Helping people overcome life’s obstacles through equine interaction."
Description
Silver Lining Riding is an equine-assisted learning center specializing in adaptive/therapeutic riding and horsemanship. People with physical, emotional, psychological, and educational needs have all benefited from our programs. Our certified riding instructors work with students as young as four to motivate and assist them in safely developing independent skills that can carry over to their everyday lives.
In a world that gives them restrictions on what they can do, we give them freedom by partnering them with a horse.
