BIT BY BIT
Therapeutic Horseback Riding Center
The program is designed to meet the special needs of individuals that cope with challenges in their daily lives. Special needs or considerations may be in the areas of:
- cognitive
- developmental

- physical
- or a combination of several disability areas
Bit by Bit provides a safe, regularly scheduled equine experience based on the individual goals of each student.
Classes are free for students and offered several times each week. Because of the nature of therapeutic horseback riding, class size is limited.
Our horses are trained and maintained for this purpose by North American Riding for the Handicapped Registered Instructors to ensure the environment is conductive to the development and improvement of strengths necessary for improved daily functional skills of the students.
