Ride On teaches horseback riding to children and adults with physical and mental disabilities and we provide therapy to disabled individuals using the movement of the horse to improve specific medical conditions. Founded in 1994, Ride On has given over 70,000 safe, effective and individualized lessons and therapy treatments and currently serves 170 riders each week. We operate in two locations: serving the Conejo Valley, our Newbury Park site is operated in partnership with the Conejo Recreation and Park District; in the San Fernando Valley, Chatsworth is home to our brand new facility and permanent ranch.

Ride On offers several programs: Hippotherapy, which emphasizes therapy and always involves a licensed physical, speech or occupational therapist, Therapeutic Riding which emphasizes recreation, riding skills and fun on horseback and able-bodied lessons for siblings and the general public. Ride On offers the only nationally accredited Hippotherapy Program in Los Angeles and Ventura Counties. Ride On is also a center for professional training and research into the effectiveness of our programs.

Ride On's experienced and talented staff includes over a dozen certified instructors and physical, occupational and speech therapists. Our Program Director is a 3-time coach of US International Disabled Riding teams and we are proud to have 4 faculty staff who certify and train new and experienced instructors and therapists for national associations. Our staff are assisted by over a hundred volunteers each week using a wonderful team of thirty horses carefully trained and well suited to the task of teaching individuals with disabilities.
