Growing And Living: Lives Of Purpose

This equine-facilitated growth and learning program offers opportunities for all individuals to learn and grow through relationships with horses. All GALLOP sessions encourage students to be "present in the now" and can help guide the students toward peace, balance and harmony with our environment. Through these classes, students practice leadership through their intention and can improve self-awareness, self-esteem, and relationships with others.

THERAPEUTIC RIDING

These lessons are offered to children, youth, and adults with physical and developmental disabilities. Therapeutic riding can provide opportunities to improve balance, trunk strength and control, motor skills, communication skills, and academic skills. Parents or care-givers are encouraged to work with the instructor to design individual goals for students, so that the students gain the most from their experiences with the horses. Above all, it is a way to be outdoors and have fun! Class size is limited to 3 riders. Please see the Calander page for current schedule and detailed information.

RIDING LESSONS

Saving Grace Farm's lesson program is perfect for introducing students to horsemanship and riding, as well as helping more experienced riders achieve personal goals. Lessons begin on the ground, focusing on creating a connection with the horse and developing effective communication within a mutually beneficial relationship. Emphasis is on creating joyful interactions with the horses, while developing handling and riding skills. Students learn to ride with a balanced seat and progress to basic dressage skills and jumping (optional). Lessons also may include trail riding. Private lessons are one hour and cost is $45, group lessons are 1 1/2 hours and cost $35.

LITTLE WRANGLERS

For ages 3-5, this games class is for our youngest riders who will learn the basics while having lots of fun! Classes are held on Saturday afternoons, and class size is limited to 3 students. Cost per session is $20.00. Please see the Calander page for class dates and times.

For Horse Owners:

CONNECTION AND LEADERSHIP

Sessions are offered to owners who desire a stronger connection and improved relationship with their horse. Moving away from dominance and conditioned response, instruction will lead the owners to a more enjoyable of relating to their horse through connection, intention setting, and clear communication. Offered by appointment and as workshops. Call or e-mail the farm if you are interested in participating in a workshop, dates TBA.
