Serving Special Needs Individuals
Since 2002 Heavenly Hooves has safely served over 25,000 individuals. Our teaching methods, safety standards, and rigorous instructor training are strictly guided by the principles of PATH International. Specially trained horses and PATH-certified instructors are used to help foster a sense of accomplishment in each student's spirit. Lessons are conducted in a safe and supportive environment where students learn to groom, care for, and ride their horse. We strive to instill confidence, provide happiness, excitement, and most importantly, a feeling of inclusion for all our students. Besides delivering smiles, hope, and cheer, Heavenly Hooves helps participants in the following ways:
-
Develop fine and gross motor skills through petting and grooming
-
Encourage expressions of positive emotions
