Who We Serve
Our clients inspire us every day.
Two Bear Therapeutic Riding Center offers pediatric physical therapy and adaptive horsemanship lessons along with summer camp sessions. We serve participants from the ages of 2 years old to 18+ with cognitive, physical, social and emotional needs. Our goal is to adapt the environment to best facilitate an individual's growth in both self confidence and physical ability.
Common diagnoses include, (but are not limited to): Autism, ADD/ADHD, ODD, Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome, Ambulatory/orthopedic challenges, Spina Bifida, Depression, Anxiety, Muscular Dystrophy, Multiple Sclerosis, Visual Impairment, Traumatic Brain Injuries, issues with High or Low Muscle Tone, Fine/Gross Motor Skills and Cognitive Delay.
To learn more, visit our services pages—adaptive horsemanship, pediatric physical therapy, Ranch Experience or summer camps—or check out our FAQs. As always, please contact us should you have any questions.
Want to sponsor a rider?
By sponsoring a rider (any general rider in need or a specific individual), you will help keep them in the saddle. Unfortunately, we do not have the resources to provide free or discounted services to all riders and the hourly costs associated with each rider must be covered for us to continue to provide services. Any funds that you can donate to help our riders allows us to continue providing them the therapy or riding services they need—either at no cost or at a reduced and affordable rate. A family's cost per lesson is $35 ($210 for 6-week term); the actual cost per lesson is $165 ($990/6-week term).

TBTRC is an amazing facility. Even more amazing is the genuine compassion of the staff/management who provide such a valuable program to our community.
Our daughter has been working with TBTRC for a couple years. She loves working with Sally and Kat. Both Sally and Kat provide a happy learning environment with the repetition, structure, and consistency that our daughter needs. Thank you TBTRC!
Volunteering at TBTRC fosters kindness, good will towards others, and gratitude for all we share as human beings in our big wide world. I always leave feeling so full of those good feelings. It's like a boost that's hard to describe, but very real.
I look forward to my volunteer time at TBTRC! I’m grateful to be a part of this wonderful family and treasure the smiles on our kiddos as they interact with and ride on our amazing horses.
Volunteering at TBTRC always transports me to a wonderful environment of kindness, fun and hope! Our intuitive horses bring smiles and successes to our clients and inspire all of us with a renewed sense of purpose.
Being a volunteer is so very rewarding as I get to experience the heart felt connection between the riders and the horses. I look forward to seeing the weekly excitement in the eyes of the riders as their "horse day" has finally arrived. Excitement from all is in the air.
