Hutt Valley Riding for the Disabled

Welcome to Hutt Valley Riding for the Disabled, located in the picturesque Upper Hutt, County Lane. Our establishment is a point of interest for individuals seeking therapeutic riding programs in the Hutt Valley region of New Zealand.

At Hutt Valley Riding for the Disabled, we are dedicated to providing therapeutic riding programs for individuals facing physical, emotional, and social challenges. Our aim is to empower our riders by fostering increased ability, independence, and self-esteem. With the collaboration of our qualified coaches, trained volunteers, and amazing horses, we ensure that positive outcomes are achieved, allowing our riders to carry these achievements into every aspect of their lives.

While the initial goal for our riders may be therapy, we go beyond that by incorporating education and recreation into our RDA sessions. Each rider is provided with an individualized, goal-based program tailored to meet their specific needs. Our coaches assess and may recommend a transfer between programs if they believe it would be beneficial for the rider.

At Hutt Valley Riding for the Disabled, we understand the immense value of therapeutic riding. Not only does it provide physical benefits such as improved balance, coordination, and muscle strength, but it also offers emotional and social benefits. Our riders develop a special bond with our horses, which promotes trust, empathy, and communication skills. Additionally, being part of a supportive community of fellow riders, volunteers, and coaches creates a sense of belonging and camaraderie.
