We promote awareness, by utilizing the interaction between humans and horses – on the ground or in the saddle.  Our participants can apply these skills in their lives, beyond the barn.

At SPIRIT, we use horsemanship and Equine Assisted Activities to reach therapeutic goals for a wide range of disorders, to improve basic self esteem and to teach about communication, trust, responsibility, partnership, and empathy.

We are a nationally recognized, fast growing 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
