Research has shown that through the repetitious movement of crawling a child’s neural network connections in the brain become stimulated, organized and better developed.

That is why we use Missouri Fox Trotters and Andalusian Horses, they have a unique gait that patterns a person while riding, as if they were crawling. Our experience using these unique gaited horses has shown improvements in special needs persons where other therapies have fallen short.

We’ve seen results where people regain their ability to walk and/or talk again, or do so for the first time, or an autistic child becomes aware of their surroundings of life.
