WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU GET HERE
When you sign up for a session, you sign up for a six week course. You'll
come for six weeks in a row, one day a week. When you arrive here for the first time, you'll sit with our therapist and
go over your medical information that you will have had submitted back to us before coming in. The therapist will
then explain the benefits to you and come up with some goals. After that has been done, both our therapist and
Miriam, will decide, based on all the riders information, what the instructor needs to be aware of, what horse
you'll be riding, what saddle you will use, what limits, if any, from horseback and what the over-all
goals are that you and the therapist have come up with.
From that point on you will begin your Horseback Adventure. Our classes are designed
to stimulate both your body and your mind. Our over-all goal is to make your experience and time here at Equi*Star as rewarding
as possible.
Every rider who comes here is unique unto themselves; there is no "everyone works
from the same plan". Everyone who comes here comes for different reasons. We pride
ourselves in taking the time to get to know all the riders individually. All the learning done by the riders, is at their
own pace. We encourage them along, but we also know all good things come with patience. All riders are at different levels
walking in the door. We take them from the level they're at in the very beginning and work to bring them to the next
level. Come visit sometime if you think therapeutic riding maybe something either you or someone you know of could benefit
from. All of our instructors are very knowledgeable and can answer your questions. All the forms needed for the riders can be located on the riders forms page.
