Therapeutic Riding Instructor Training

A Therapeutic Riding Instructor must possess extraordinary teaching techniques and powers of inner strength and sensitivity. A Therapeutic Riding Instructor’s prerequisite is an adequate knowledge of physical and non-physical disabilities and how they influence teaching equestrian skills. A Therapeutic Riding Instructor works not only with riders but with a myriad of volunteers from varied social, economic, vocational backgrounds, and should exhibit above-average intra-personal relationship skills.
