LiftMeUp! is a therapeutic horseback riding program that is dedicated to providing safe and effective instruction to children and adults with a variety of disabilities. We teach riding skills adapted to the individual's cognitive and physical needs. By combining the unique and special presence of the horse and the skills and caring of our PATH-Certified instructors, we have been able to help hundreds of people gain confidence, strength, and invaluable self-esteem in a friendly, fun environment. Participation in LiftMeUp! has helped our students to sit or stand unassisted, walk independently, improve their focus and attention span, and enhance their social and communication skills.Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship International (PATH Intl.) was formed in 1969 as the North American Riding for the Handicapped Association to promote equine-assisted activities and therapies (EAAT) for individuals with special needs.
