Our Magical RIDERS are the "heartbeat"of our passion here at the MAGICAL Meadows as they...
...enter into the arena and meet their "horse for the day" and assist in brushing and tacking the horse.
...mount the horse with the assistance of the instructor.
...begin and participate in the exercise and lesson for the day under the direction of the instructor with the assistance from the horse leader and sidewalker.
...dismount the horse with the assistance of the instructor, assist in untacking the horse, feeding the horse a "treat" and finally...
THANK the horse...
THANK the volunteer!

CLASS TIME is one hour, once a week, for each six-week session.

Each class is...
15 minutes to meet & tack the horse...
30 minutes for instruction
15 minutes to feed & untack the horse

HEALING THE BODY, MIND & SPIRIT...
Through our Therapeutic Riding Program at The MAGICAL Meadows, children, youth and adults with physical and/or developmental disabilities improve physical health, relax tight muscles, increase balance, build muscle strength, sharpen hand/eye coordination, improve social skills, and gain a sense of control and self-confidence as the rider experiences a freedom never felt before.

The horse's soothing rhythm, strength, warmth, and three-dimensional movement pattern provides healthy exercise while improving circulation and muscle tone.  The discipline associated with working with horses and the social interactions between peers benefit the mind and spirit while raising self-esteem and increasing self-sufficiency through accomplishment.
