Abstract

Special Spirit Inc. provides therapeutic horseback riding lessons to children and adults with physical and cognitive challenges. As a PATH Int'l Certified Member Center, we have highly qualified instructors teach horsemanship skills to our riders. Increased strength, balance and self-esteem are some of the benefits of this wonderful sport activity.
