Upward Transitions is a federally registered 501(c)3 non-profit and was created to enhance the lives of people with physical, emotional and cognitive challenges. Using horse-related activities and therapies, our dedicated community of professionals and volunteers are committed to improving the lives of our riders.
Therapeutic horseback riding teaches riding skills that have proven to be beneficial to children and adults struggling with daily challenges. Upward Transitions also supports wounded warriors or any veteran with a disability. Upward Transitions provides a safe environment to bring horse and rider together, creating both physical and emotional benefits, in addition to forging bonds that lead to improvement in daily life.
Licensed therapists use the horse's movements as a treatment tool to provide physical, occupational, and speech/language therapy strategies. A horse's naturally dynamic movement assists our clients in achieving therapy goals. A physician's prescription is required.
Horses are non-judgmental and are naturally social animals. They provide a positive therapeutic environment that cannot be duplicated in a clinical setting. Every rider will benefit from their accepting and trusting interaction.
Upward Transitions provides therapeutic riding services for residents of Bandera, Bexar, Gillespie, Kendall, Kerr, and Medina counties.
