rider- you ride aroung gradually building up confidence and strength, it is a getaway from the real world, you are not limited on the back of a horse
volunteer- you muck out, feed, groom ect. You help lead the horses and have to always be nice, you are told what to do by more experianced workers ect.
Riding for the disabled is helping people disabled to ride because they enjoy it and it is able to be done
if you can ride a Norse than im not complaining.shaun schwegler
In 2011, Hobby Lobby did not have wheelchairs or riding carts for disabled shoppers. As far as is known, that has not changed (August 2014).
Therapeutic riding is supervised riding under a physican's prescription. It is different from when disabled people ride for fun. Therapeutic riding is medication. I just did a report on therapeutic riding but for more info go to narha.org Hope this helps!
anyone at any age can really help... if you know how to handle a horse well enough... i used to volunteer.. i was 13 then.. there are many younger kids... probably no younger then about 9 that i have heard of. hope this helps....
This will depend on what type of riding you are doing and if you are able to list it as physical therapy. Hippotherapy (horses used for therapeutic reasons.) is legal , but insurance companies may not know about it, or may require you to go to a licensed facility for it to count as 'good' and not illegal. If you are disabled and riding a horse over jumps or another activity that would be labeled as being a higher risk, you could get in trouble.

No. You could say "disabled people have weaknesses", or "disabled people's weaknesses...".
