Required Forms for Enrollment

The mission of LiftMeUp! is to provide a safe, effective, and challenging therapeutic riding program dedicated to helping children and adults with a wide range of abilities. By combining the use of horses with the skills of certified instructors, LiftMeUp! seeks to help riders develop physically, mentally, and emotionally in a caring and fun environment that empowers the rider in very different way from traditional therapy. Riding at LiftMeUp! helps students sit and stand unassisted, walk independently, improve their focus and attention span and enhance social and communication skills.

Group inclusion and private lessons are offered at our facility. The charge is $70 for a one-hour group lesson (up to 4 students) and $90 for a half-hour private lesson. Each of our lessons is staffed with an instructor certified by PATH International (Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship, International), as well as volunteers, who act as horse leaders and side walkers, to conduct the lesson safely. The minimum age for riding lessons is 5 years old.

The following forms must be completed and returned for enrollment (all forms can be downloaded at the link below):

• Rider’s Application
• Physician’s Statement (for therapeutic riding)
• Rider Contract that includes: 
  • Terms and Conditions Acknowledgement Form
  • Release, Waiver & Indemnity Agreement
  • Barn Rules and Regulations Consent
  • Authorization for Emergency Medical Treatment
  • Photo Consent Policies

Occasionally, therapeutic riding is not an appropriate form of activity and the rider’s instructor has the right to discontinue the session. Each case will be discussed with the rider/rider’s parent, physician and primary therapist to determine if therapeutic riding is deemed an acceptable activity at this time.
