What Is Lift Me Up!

Lift Me Up! is a therapeutic riding program dedicated to helping children and adults with physical, mental and/or emotional disabilities improve both their physical and mental well being.   By combining the unique and special presence of the horse and the skills and caring of our registered instructors, we have been able to help hundreds of people gain confidence patience and invaluable self-esteem.

The LMU! program was developed in 1975 by our current president, Colleen Zanin.  Over the years we have expanded our programs to incorporate the innovative growth in the therapeutic riding industry.   Today we have over 35 riders participating in our programs and a waiting list we are eager to serve.   Our riders range in age from 4 to 40 years old.

Our staff is made up of registered therapeutic riding instructors, many of whom have occupational and/or physical therapy backgrounds.   We are accredited by the North American Riding for the Handicapped Association.

The diversity of our staff allows us to offer a varity of services including: Hippotherapy and a Sports Riding Program.
