“It’s great how welcoming and family orientated and accepting everyone here…there is no judgment! My daughter has been greatly enjoying her time here for over 2 years. She is on the Autism Spectrum and also struggles with Sensory Processing Disorder, high anxiety, self-regulation and emotions. When she first started her adventure at BEAMING, she didn’t talk much, didn’t have a lot of muscle control and she had no confidence. As time progressed, she started to develop a connection with the volunteers and horses, and you could start to hear her commanding her horse, sitting up straighter and smiling. At home she would follow directions, be more relaxed and adaptable to change. Last summer she was finally able to learn to ride her bike and I believe a lot of that is due to the therapy here with learning balance and muscle control. There is something to be said about the movement of a horse, the bouncing and rhythm can “reset” a child. [At BEAMING] there is lots of fun, lots of compassion, lots of life and lots of love!”
