Social Benefits of Therapeutic Riding:
·
Friendship - Riders share a common love of horses
and a common experience of riding — a good foundation on which to build a
friendship.
·
Development of respect and love for animals -
Riders find themselves bonding with the animals. They develop an interest in
them and they learn to put the needs of the horse first.
·
Enjoyment - There is no doubt about it, riding a
horse is fun. Riders experience excitement and pleasure every time they come
for a lesson.
