What is Therapeutic Riding?
Therapeutic Riding uses equine-assisted activities for the purpose of contributing positively to cognitive, physical, emotional and social well-being of people with disabilities. Therapeutic riding provides benefits in the areas of therapy, education, recreation and leisure.
Therapeutic riding has changed and evolved over the years since the lead organization NARHA (North American Riding for the Handicapped) was founded in 1969. The organization has recently been renamed Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship International (PATH-Intl.) to better represent the industry and the numerous disciplines and equine assisted activities and therapies offered by centers.
ITRP is a certified PATH-Intl. facility.
Our certified and compassionate instructors work to help riders with physical disabilities such as cerebral palsy, down syndrome, multiple sclerosis, paralysis, stroke and traumatic brain injury. ITRP also works with those who have other disabilities such as autism, attention deficit disorder, anxiety and depression. We also have targeted programs to help youth at risk and the elderly.
