Therapeutic Riding Changing the Lives of the Disabled

The lack of proper ways to educate and influence disabled people, especially children. Therapeutic riding encompases multiple aspects of therapy for any physical or mental disability. From blindness to multiple sclerosis to autism and downs syndrome, riding a horse can teach so much. Balance, coordination, strength, confidence, cause and effect, action and reaction, reading, colors, counting, listening skills, following directions, trusting humans and animals, self-acceptance, and adjusting to a new and sometimes scary situation are all things that can be learned from riding a horse.
