Walk On®

Walk On provides equine assisted activities to people with physical, cognitive, social and emotional disabilities. Walk On is organized for charitable and educational purposes to inspire people to advance to their highest potential.

Equine Assisted activities provide motivational, educational and recreational benefits that enhance the quality of life. Benefits derive from the interaction with the horse. The gentle rhythmical gait of the horse moves the rider's body in a manner similar to the human walk.

Benefits include:

• PHYSICAL: balance, coordination, mobility, muscle tone, motor control, sensory integration and visual/spatial orientation.
• COGNITION: attention, communication, judgement, following directions, problem solving and sequencing.
• SOCIAL: cooperation, empathy, responsibility, respect and trust.
• EMOTIONAL: confidence, motivation, goal setting and self-esteem.
• BEHAVIORAL: relaxation and self-discipline.
