Here at HorseSisters we are also proud to offer able-bodied riding lessons to riders of all ages and weights. We offer instruction in both Western and English riding styles, and cover topics such as Hunter/Jumper, Show Jumping, Dressage, Eventing, Western Pleasure, and games.
We have developed a tried and true method of teaching with both our riders and horses in mind. A well-rounded student will not only know how to ride, but will learn essential horse care, stable management, and basic horsemanship skills.
Classes are limited in size, and private lessons are available for those with special needs.
Our qualified riding instructor will cater a lesson schedule to fit your needs, with your future riding goals in mind. Our lesson program can be tailored to whatever your equine needs are, whether just wanting to trail ride with friends or whether you are wanting to step your competition riding up to the next level.
We accept students as young as 6, and have draft horses that can accommodate riders of almost any weight.

Here at HorseSisters & Associates, Inc., we are proud supporters of the Special Olympics Florida Equestrian Events. We believe that the bond formed between a rider and their equine counterpart revitalizes body, mind, and soul. We are happy to provide a location central to the Space Coast where handicapped riders can train, qualify and travel to compete in the Special Olympics. We are so proud of our Special Olympians for 2010, Karen McVickers and Gale Johns, as well as our volunteers and coaches!
The mission of Special Olympics Florida is to provide year-round sports training and competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for people with intellectual disabilities who wish to participate, giving them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy and participate in the sharing of gifts, skills, and friendship with their families, other Special Olympics athletes, and the community.
The ultimate objective of Special Olympics Florida is to help people with intellectual disabilities participate as productive and respected members of society at large, by offering them a fair opportunity to develop and demonstrate their skills and talents through sports training and competition, and by increasing the public's awareness of their capabilities and needs.
Once ignored and neglected, hidden at home, or isolated from the community in institutions, people with intellectual disabilities have gained respect and acceptance through Special Olympics. To every athlete involved, the program provides a lifetime of active participation in sports and an opportunity to become contributing and accepted members of society. To their families, it is a symbol of hope. To volunteers and to the public, Special Olympics offers an experience that uplifts the spirit and touches the heart.
A person's participation in Special Olympics has been scientifically proven to have a variety of beneficial outcomes, including improved self-esteem and overall health, better relationships with family members, and a greater ability to become productive members of the community.

She and her assistants are happy to accept riders and drivers of all ages and abilities.
HorseSisters strives to bring affordable, sometimes FREE, therapeutic horseback riding and special education services for anyone with physical, social/emotional and learning challenges.
We strive to share calming relationship with our horses, many of which are rescued, within our community through therapy and at events we are invited to attend.
We can work with all physical, emotional and behavioral disabilities. Our therapists can write a treatment plan and monitor each rider's progress, adapting lessons to suit the rider's needs. Our "Stable Life" program assures a sound horsemanship beginning for anyone, especially our youth at risk - such as foster children, children and adults in group homes, and in treatment centers. We can tailor a program to suit any clients needs.
Our licensed Therapists can evaluate all clients of all ages on an individual basis. An Individual Lesson Plan is drafted with treatment modalities outlined for each client. Sessions can begin immediately, with our Therapists monitoring the client carefully once a week.
Clients from all walks of life will be treated with respect and have the horse as a treatment partner on the road to self improvement.
