Our Story
Miracles Therapeutic Riding Center was established by Chris Griffith in 2006 to fill the need in the north Denver community for a local therapeutic riding facility. We currently operate out of the M&M Equestrian Center in Lafayette and serve approximately 30 riders each week with our herd of 6 amazing horses as well as a wonderful team of faithful volunteers.
Therapeutic Riding involves many different approaches to include the opportunity for physical, mental, and emotional growth and healing. Each lesson, horse, and equipment used is tailored to each rider and their specific goals. Therapeutic riding is a field that is continually growing and expanding. As it does new research is coming out that shows the amazing benefits and impacts of therapeutic riding. These majestic creatures, known as the horse, have much to give us!
Many can benefit from therapeutic riding including those with: Down Syndrome, Autism Spectrum Disorders, Cerebral Palsy, Spina Bifida, Multiple Sclerosis, Traumatic Brain Injury, Amputations, ADD or other Hyperactivity Disorder, Muscular Dystrophy, Paralysis, Visual and Auditory Impairment, Learning Disabilities, Emotional and Behavioral Difficulties.
