Horses for Heroes
Horses for Heroes offers veterans and first responders a welcoming space to heal, reconnect, and grow through the powerful bond between horse and rider. Thanks to the generous underwriting of a dedicated sponsor, this program is provided free of charge to all participants. Sessions focus on building strength, improving balance, overcoming fear, and fostering emotional well-being. Whether it’s gaining confidence in the saddle or finding calm in the quiet rhythm of the barn, Horses for Heroes honors those who serve by supporting their physical, mental, and emotional health.
Ground to Saddle
Ground to Saddle introduces participants to the foundational aspects of horsemanship. Riders learn hands-on skills such as grooming, feeding, and basic horse care, anatomy, safe handling, and groundwork techniques. Sessions include beginner riding skills that build trust and communication between horse and rider. Classes 1-2 are unmounted. Classes 3-6 are in the saddle. By mastering these fundamentals, participants gain confidence and deepen their understanding of the horse/human relationship.
