"My 5-year old grandson with autism has trouble focusing, and riding at H.A.T.S teaches him how to listen and follow instructions, and to block out distractions. Riding also works on his core strength which has always been weak. He loves the horses and especially likes to brush them and give them a bath after the riding session. " -Pamela
HATS makes the hard work of stretching leg muscles fun! -Anne
