Involvement in NDR Therapeutic Riding can lead to both physical and emotional rewards!

People with physical, mental, and psychological impairments may use equine activities as an enjoyable and relaxing experience to provide benefits in the areas of socialization, posture, mobility, and an overall improved quality of life. The horse is a strong motivator of accomplishing these goals.
