As a mother of a child with motor delays, I can’t say enough about the wonderful SPIRIT Equestrian program.
My daughter has a rare conditional called Moyamoya disease. Her condition caused her to have several very large and damaging strokes before she turned two years old. The strokes have caused her to have a substantial motor development delay.
Due to her motor delay my daughter has had many Physical Therapists over the years. Several therapist have highly recommended the SPIRIT program.
After years of waiting for her to turn 4 and many wonderful email exchanges with Dada, my daughter started lessons this summer. From the first lesson she completely fell in love with horseback riding. She loved her horse Lucy and talked about her for many days after the lesson. For all of her subsequent lessons she rode the horse named SPIRIT. SPIRIT is a great horse and my daughter loves every minute of her lesson. The wonderful exercises that they have her do have helped improve her core strength. All the SPIRIT volunteers have been wonderful.
This is an amazing program and we are so blessed to have Dada and the SPIRIT program in our lives.
