O.A.T.S. Offering Alternative Therapy with Smiles

Therapeutic riding:
• Improves balance, flexibility, muscle
strength and tone
• Develops communication, listening and
attention skills
• Encourages social interaction
• Builds confidence and self-esteem

The goal for every rider at O.A.T.S. is to ride independently (without assistance from a leader and/or sidewalker), no matter the disability. While not always possible, the important thing is that it’s encouraged.
