Last week, we headed North on the 101 and found ourselves in absolute therapeutic haven! I, personally, also got to revisit my roots a little and get back in the saddle.
It had been a long time, but I completely forgot just how calm life gets when you can hear the clip clop clip clop under you.
As soon as you arrive, you’re amazing coaches assign you a horse based on your personality. There’s a wild card steed (the one I had – Joe) who mirrored my persona beautifully. There’s also the calm ones, the charmers, the big and sturdy’s etc.
Once you’re up in the saddle, you go through a number of activities to free your mind of any possible stress and it works to perfection.
There are plenty of other options too when it comes to hopping up on a horse. There are school programs, spirit classes, supported wellness and even summer camps!
The team is raising money for a new warm room for our big furry friends through their SPIRIT program and registration for the next intake is open now until June 30th.
For all the info and to register check out the Free Spirit Therapeutic Riding Association here and tell em Surge sent you! Or not. It’s your call.
