Therapeutic riding uses equine oriented activities for the purpose of contributing positively to the cognitive, physical, emotional and social well being of individuals with varying types and degrees of special needs through adaptive riding and therapeutic riding. Equine activities are used to achieve goals, with the horse being a strong motivator for accomplishing

these goals. Emphasis is on a positive, enjoyable, and relaxing experience that provides additional therapeutic benefits in the areas of socialization, posture, strength, mobility, and an overall improved quality of life.

RIDES CANCELED TODAY due to severe weather.

10/30/2024

LIFE PRESENTS US CHALLENGES on a daily basis. Sometimes we see a mess before us to wade through without tripping, hurting someone or getting hurt. The key to success is to STALL to problem solve. How does it work: State the problem, Think through solutions, Assess the pros and cons of each solution, Let’s try it! Look to see if the solution worked. If not, try again. Never give up! Success in life is filled with challenges throughout the journey. One step at a time!

Students did great today! Success!

Independence is Confidence

Today I ride with confidence! I began my weekly 30 minute therapeutic horse back riding sessions a few years ago with a leader and two side walkers. I began without confidence. I held onto my two side walkers and trusted my horse leader to get me to where I needed to be. I could not remember more than one directive at a time. I now ride in the SOUND STRIDES independent program here at ATRC! I not only remember several directives all at one time, I can tell my instructor the next step in my riding pattern before she gives me the directions. This may not be a big accomplishment to you but to me it is huge as these actions cross over into my everyday life! Thanks mom and my ATRC team for never giving up on me. #DebbyeScroggins Equine Assisted Services A 501c3 nonprofit organization Sponsor/ Donate to help more children Www.ATRCok.org Sand Springs Osage County OK APPOINTMENTS ONLY 918-246-9450 [email protected]

SUCCESS at INDEPENDENCE!

ATRC Rider, Karis, began her riding sessions in our flagship therapeutic riding program with a horse leader and two side walkers. Today, she is an independent rider who has promoted into our SOUND STRIDES independent program. Goals can be met when commitment, focus and hard work are taken seriously. Note from this week’s lesson: Karis completed fully independent trots using the letters! I also generically told her “go walk around” on a break and she began to do circles, diagonals, and small patterns entirely on her own. Very interesting! Was a great ride! Jamie Curran ATRC Riding Program Manager Special thanks to her family and the ATRC team who have supported her along the way. Yay Karis! You rock! Www.ATRCok.org Donate, Sponsor, Volunteer

Lefty slams the new game!

LEFTY SLAMS IT! A service horse learns to participate in new rider activities. We sometimes forget that life is cognitive, emotional and physical for our horses as well. They come to our program leaving their families, leaving what they know and enter a world of new surroundings and people. Good news!!! Our ATRC family always greets them with more love, hugs and kisses than they can handle at times. Service horses are the best family one could ever have. They change our quality of life! Thank you Lefty and Amanda for this practice ride SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR HORSE DONORS. We appreciate your trust in us.
