Description

Founded in 2004, BEAMING, Inc. Therapeutic Riding strives to create life-changing experiences for individuals with special needs and their families.

In therapeutic horseback riding, the legs of the horse become the legs of the rider. Horseback riding lessons foster a new sense of freedom and mobility for our riders. Riding a horse mimics the movement of walking, a difficult motion to duplicate in a clinical setting. Our PATH (Professional Association of Theraputic Horsemanship) certified instructors lead lessons designed to enhance the physical, cognitive and emotional well-being of riders. There are many benefits of therapeutic horseback riding

  • Greater muscle strength, postural control and coordination
  • Improved memory and cognitive skills
  • Renewed ability to focus and balance
  • Increased self-esteem and self- confidence.

BEAMING believes in the power of therapeutic equine therapy to help every individual reach their potential. Our unique equine program allows people and horses to develop lasting relationships.
