About the Program

Madison Fields is proud to offer a therapeutic riding program that allows people of all ages and disabilities the opportunity to learn horsemanship in a controlled and safe environment. We are not offering therapy, we are offering therapeutic horsemanship lessons. All instructors are PATH certified and qualified to work with both horses and special needs students. Lessons will consist of both mounted and unmounted activities, giving riders the ability to learn not just riding, but horsemanship skills as well. Riders will work toward goals and objectives with their selected instructor.  

Riding Schedule (Summer 2016)

Lessons will be broken down into block scheduling. Participation will be open for five, eight-week-long sessions throughout the year. Each session, students will have the opportunity to be reassigned to other instructors/horses; or keep the same team as the previous session.  Please view the schedule below for more details.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Volunteers

Therapeutic riding lessons will be assisted by program volunteers. Volunteers will be expected to perform tasks both in and out of the barn as well as on and off lessons. Volunteers will also be responsible for tasks such as tacking and untacking for lessons, barn cleanliness, horse cleanliness, leading horses for lessons, side walking horses for lessons and more.
