Experience the Horse is a two-hour interactive demonstration that explains the how horses can be beneficial for persons with special needs.

We invite doctors, therapists, special education teachers, parent of children with special needs, caregivers of persons with other illnesses, such as stroke or heart attack, to attend.

Demonstrations will show how

• Memory cells in the legs stimulate muscles that are used in walking

• Core muscles are strengthened

• Speech is encouraged

• Sensory and tactile areas are stimulated

• Calm and relaxed behavior is realized

• Social interaction is encouraged

Participants will be encouraged to EXPERIENCE the horse by grooming, and, if desired, riding the horses.
