Our Programs
Adaptive Riding & Liberty
Our programs aid NDIS & private participants in meeting their goals through the power of natural horsemanship and riding.
Here at Totoka Lodge, we provide a safe, supportive and semi-structured session.
We recognize each person is an individual and therefore requires an individual program.
The majority of our sessions include riding, however, there are times when riding may not be possible as the safety of our clients is our main priority. We also believe in teaching all aspects of horsemanship and horse husbandry not just riding.
Those in wheelchairs are welcome.
Please note that all Clients are required to wear long pants, enclosed shoes, and a vest and helmet provided by Totoka Lodge.
Adaptive riding and liberty provides a social and recreational service in natural environment.. Our riding sessions are adapted to meet the skill development and ability of the rider.
Please note: NO Allied Health professionals conduct these sessions.
