Therapeutic Riding Program Registration

Spring or Fall Ten-Week Session

(Our Fall 2025 session is almost complete – Contact us in March for application for Spring 2026 Session)

Through the power or horses, PRANCE can help! We would love to tell you more about our therapeutic riding program that has operated in Saugeen Shores since 1993. Our classes are appropriate for children and adults with a wide range of disabilities and we have specialized equipment such as our wheel-chair lift which allows us to assist with mounting. Therapeutic riding is not appropriate for all individuals and each client will be assessed on an individual basis – some of our parameters are listed below. Over the years many individuals have benefitted greatly from the program and we welcome anyone interested to come by for a tour to learn more and to see our facility first-hand. 

• Must be able to maintain a sitting position while the horse is in motion (unless another accepted position has been found by a CanTRA certified instructor)
• Minimum age of 5 years
• Seizures must be controlled by medication or be seizure-free for 6 months
• Generally not over a weight of 180 lbs. 
• Has a negative finding of Atlantoaxial Instabililty (for persons with Down Syndrome)
• Does not have any surgically implanted spinal assistive devices
• Riders accepted into the program are done so on a trial basis.
