My daughter Lia is 11 years old and has been challenged since infancy with eyesight problems, struggles with fine/gross motor skills and sensory perception. She has distinct muscle weakness that has delayed her physical development and coordination. This has impacted her so profoundly throughout her life that she approaches every physical activity with fear and a lack of confidence.
Which is why when she started riding Spirit it was such a joy to see her happy and confident on that HUGE animal. I thought she would be fearful but she couldn’t wait for each lesson. It was so uplifting to hear Kate and Dada praise her and give her the courage to push herself to get better. I’m so excited for her that she has a skill that she can be proud of and share with her friends.
We are extremely blessed to have found the SPIRIT program and so grateful participate.
