Maryland Therapeutic Riding- Horses That Heal- Meet the Riders

Everything we do at MTR is for our riders. From as young as two-years old to adults in their seventies, MTR strives to make each ride a fun yet therapeutic experience. We celebrate the success of our riders everyday!

¨We know that riding works because when we take a winter break we can tell something is just missing from Matthew. It is the piece of the puzzle that was missing, and it makes him feel great! -Matthew’s Mom

¨Mackenzie has a newfound ability to focus on the task at hand. She pays attention now, and follows direction. But the most wonderful thing is that riding takes her “out” of her disability! -Mackenzie’s Mom

¨In my teens, everything in my life changed. I had to go through years of rehabilitation. I love going to MTR. I feel as if I am a part of a big family. The horses are my special friends. They have helped me through a difficult time. –Annick

¨My weekly riding sessions have strengthened my muscles and improved my breathing as well as enabled me to pursue a challenging sport, given me a great deal of self-confidence, and I have made a lot of friends! -Tom
