High Hurdles Therapeutic Riding Program

High Hurdles Therapeutic Riding Program We seek to provide a unique opportunity for people with special needs through the horse-human bond.

The High Hurdles Therapeutic Riding Program was developed in 1997 by a committee of parents, educators and professionals who were interested in providing a therapeutic riding experience for children with developmental disabilities. The program has expanded over the years and currently serves hundreds of riders, from age three to eighty-three years of age. High Hurdles offers cognitively, emotionally and physically challenged individuals a unique opportunity for growth and development. Instructors, students, horses and volunteers all work together to achieve challenging yet attainable horsemanship goals. Learning to care for and about horses while mastering riding skills is what High Hurdles is all about.

Bello from the High Hurdles crew!

Minions felt appropriate because truthfully, most days at the barn involve a little chaos, a lot of laughter and a fair amount of cleaning up after others. Happy Halloween!!

❄️⛄️Winter Mini's are back!

We’re excited to offer winter lessons to our 2025 season riders again this year! Based on feedback from last season, this mini session will run for 6 weeks (Jan5-Feb 14), with the same make-up/weather policy as our regular sessions. We’ve built in two extra weeks at the end to allow for any weather-related make-ups.

Remember: winter lessons aren’t just about time in the saddle! They’ll also include off-horse and classroom activities designed to build on skills and knowledge gained on horse.
