Our Students
*STAR has an average of 20 students participating in classes.
*STAR accepts students from ages 3-60.
*Representing a wide range of disabilities, students benefit greatly from their weekly classes.
*Being astride a walking horse, students use many of the same muscles as they would walking on their own, thereby improving muscle tone, balance, mobility and physical strength.
*Games and activities that encourage students to interact with horses, instructors, volunteers and other students result in improved communication and social skills.
*Mastering basic horsemanship skills is instrumental in enhancing confidence and self esteem.
*Developing bonds with horses teaches respect for animals and encourages students to be kind and responsible.
*All skills learned during STAR classes can be carried over to daily life activities.
