Jericho Creek Farms believes that the
connection between horses and people is a healing one, which empowers
individuals and allows them to reach their full potential, both as a
rider, and a responsible caregiver. Further, riding at any age, or
ability, should offer a sense of accomplishment and fun, a special
interaction between the powerful horse and a rider who understands,
through proper instruction, how best to interact with his/her mount.
The new friendships gained between horses and people are beneficial to
all and can foster a real sense of belonging.
In addition, to offering individual,
private lessons for all ages, we are beginning to offer therapeutic
riding to children and adults with special needs. Such riders may face
unusual challenges in their daily lives, but that should not stop them
from becoming empowered at whatever they choose in life.
Becoming linked to a horse’s awesome power should
go a long way in lessening a rider’s anxieties and fear of failure.
Therapeutic lessons will be geared toward improving balance and posture,
muscle tone, eye and hand coordination, flexibility, range of motion,
increased motor skills, longer attention span and focus, improved
listening skills, greater self-control, and a real sense of pride and
self-esteem.
