Therapeutic Riding
Founded in 2001, Gaits of Hope provides safe and affordable
therapeutic horseback riding instruction to individuals facing physical,
mental, and emotional challenges in Fargo
and other neighboring cities. Therapeutic riding is available through
registration; simply call Gaits of Hope for additional information. All activities will be supervised by
certified, trained instructors and volunteers.
Our program includes a one hour riding session which consists of
stretching, a warm-up period on the horse for relaxation, and exercises
that are designed to help improve coordination and balance. Each class is conducted by a certified
riding instructor with up to four side walkers and one horse leader per
rider. Helmets are required to be
worn by each rider. The safety and well being of all participants is our
top priority.
