Our mission is providing quality therapeutic horseback riding for children ages 5-12 with special needs. Admission to the program is based on diagnosis eligibility, PT evaluation, medical referral for your special needs child, and availability (we currently have a waiting list). Our therapeutic riding sessions are overseen by physical therapists and are geared toward each rider. With small class sizes, riders get individualized instruction while riding.

STARR's therapy riding classes are offered in two sessions, one in the Spring and one in the Summer, typically held on Sundays. 

Therapeutic riding is an equine-assisted activity for the purpose of contributing positively to the cognitive, physical, emotional, and social well-being of individuals with special needs by providing experiences in the areas of health, education, sport, recreation, and leisure.
