HOPE Therapeutic Spring Registration

HOPE Therapeutic Riding Center is currently taking registrations for the 2012 spring Quarter, for therapeutic riding lessons. The registration deadline is February 13, 2012 for current students, and the registration deadline for new and returning students is February 20, 2012.

The program offers specially trained and certified instructors who know how to address the needs of people of all ages who are facing a broad range of special challenges from physical, cognitive, to emotional.

For the past 25 years, HOPE has helped students achieve greater mobility, self-confidence and social skills, among other benefits. Rather than teach all lessons alike, each lesson is designed specifically to meet the special needs and goals of the individual student, whether they be better balance, hand/eye coordination, social interactions, muscle strengthening, building self-confidence and many others. Whatever the goal, all of our students have FUN learning how to ride!

HOPE’s Spring Quarter will be held at both out North End Location in Coupeville and the South End Location in Langley. The quarter will run for 8-weeks starting March 26, 2012.

Fees for Spring Quarter are $240. There is an additional $30 charge for new students to cover the new student assessment. A limited number of scholarships are available to pay for part of the fees for those students who meet financial criteria.

Fees and registration papers must be received by the deadline. Required paperwork is available by calling or emailing HOPE. As always, if you have questions or would like to learn more about therapeutic riding, please let us know, and allow us to help you.
