VTRA is excited to announce a new program designed specifically for:
-
Children under 4 years old who are not yet able to ride with us
-
Children up to 6 years old who did not secure a lesson spot in the upcoming term
Program Details:
-
Duration: 30-minute private sessions on Friday mornings
-
Activities:
-
Up to 20 minutes on the Miracolt (mechanical horse, see picture attached) to support physical development, balance, and motor skills
-
Engaging barn-based activities focused on horse care and safety
-
Important Note:
Before participating, prospective participants must consult with a physician. CanTRA (Canadian Therapeutic Riding Association) and PATH Intl (Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship International) require participants in a therapeutic/adaptive equine program to present a completed medical history and signed physician’s consult forms. Forms are sent to you in the Intake Package after the initial inquiry process has been completed.
Fees:
Miracolt Program classes are $42/lesson (30 minutes private lesson). Participants sign up for a term (between 6 and 10 weeks), so fees are generally between $252 and $420 per term. Payment is due prior to the start of the riding term.
A variety of funding sources including Autism Funding Unit, Jumpstart, KidSport, and school funding can be applied to VTRA Programs.
2025/2026 Term Dates:
VTRA programs run September to June. There are no classes on Stat holidays.
Term 4: April 17 – June 5 (8 weeks)
