Sydney's Therapeutic Riding Assistance Program is a completely free, non-profit organization which provides a therapeutic horseback riding experience for people with various disabilities. Other horse-related activities are also available. This program is designed to improve posture, balance, mobility, and function. People with disabilities often face many difficulties while performing everyday tasks. However, research has shown that participants of therapeutic riding have not only shown physical improvements, but also an increase in confidence, self-esteem, independence, and patience.
