Brain Power
These
activities are held primarily in our classroom and utilize balance boards, physio balls, mini-trampolines, I Gallop horse
simulator along with bean bags and raquet balls.
These activities involve balance, eye tracking, focus, and rhythm to help calm a person, help with coordination, attention span and motor skills to name just a
few. I have found that all students enjoy these activities because they are just plain fun! These classes are generally a 1/2 hr in duration and can be a private
session or up to 4 people.
Fees:
Private 1/2 hr session $ 20
2 to 4 people in 1/2 hr session $10.00 each
Activities with the animals
This can be
grooming the horses, taking them for a walk, bathing them, using them as your painting canvas, helping with injuries or feeding
and care. We also sit or stand
in the pastures watching the horses interact and build obstacles courses in the arena to lead the horses through. The
possible activities are endless. Students find it peaceful here at the farm and enjoy helping to care for the horses
and physically move around where they might not at home.
Fee:
Private 1/2 hr session $ 30
Private 1 hr session $55
Semi-private 1 hr session $ 35 each
Group of 3 or 4 session $ 30 each
Therapeutic Riding
Therapeutic riding is
an activity that is beneficial physically because of the horses 3 dimensional gait as well as you have to re-balance with
each step the horse takes so your trunk gets a terrific workout. It can also boost ones emotional and mental state being
in control of a very large animal and they are looking down at everyone instead of people looking "down" on them. There are too many benefits to mention. Please feel free to
ask specific questions.
Fees:
Private 1/2 hr session $30
Private 1 hr session $ 55
Semi-Private 1 hr session
$ 35 each
I do not hold group riding lessons as I feel that quality takes priority over quantity and I want each rider to have
their time well spent here. I have felt that too many riders in the arena or on the trail causes too much distraction
and it is counter-productive.
Therapeutic Riding and Brain Power
We can combine these two activities and receive maximum benefits while at the farm. We start with 10 to 15 minutes of Brain Power to "warm up" our brains and bodies then have a riding session.
Fees:
45 minute private session $40
Counseling Services
are offered by Sara Treat, LCPC in
our classroom as well as with our equine partners. Sara is also available for consulting and working with your child
in their sessions with instructors. WE combine our services to offer various team building workshops, parent and child
classes and more.
Fees
are dependant on the needs adn time required.
Traditional Horsemanship
Lessons
We offer
lessons for those intersted in learning all about horses as well as riding. Our students delve into all aspects of caring
for a horse including first aid, signs of illness, and daily care.
We feel that ground work is just as important as riding and in order to
become an effective rider you need to know all about your horse from the ground up. When appropriate students are taught
to catch and halter their mount, lunge and lead a horse safely.
In the saddle students are taught to utilize their whole bodies to steer and control the speeds of their horse.
They are taught to read a horses body language to help with their riding and precision of exercises.
We utilize the indoor arena, the outside track and the
trail for our lessons. We offer both English and Western so that students can try their hand at each and decide for htemselves
what they would like to learn.
Fees:
Private
1/2 hr $30 Private 45 min $40
Private hour $55 Semi-private
hour $35
