Horseback Riding Saddle up! Equestrian Connection is a one-of-a-kind stable that provides therapeutic horseback riding opportunities specifically designed for individuals with special needs.

A waiver will be sent prior to program and must be returned to the NSSRA office by Friday, December 27. Note: As a safety precaution for all, participants over 250 pounds will do groundwork with horses instead of riding. Participants with physical and medical conditions, please use caution. No program January 23. Goals: Increase flexibility and range of motion while on the horse. Gain self-confidence and a sense of control through stable skills.
