Therapeutic Carriage Driving & Horsemanship

Welcome to the Driving Magic Website. Driving Magic Inc. is a non-profit organization providing therapeutic and recreational equine-assisted activities for children and adults with developmental and/or physical disabilities. We focus on therapeutic carriage driving and horsemanship programs for both ambulatory participants and those needing wheelchair accessibility.

Why equine-assisted activities?

As documented by NARHA (North American Riding for the Handicapped Association, Inc.) over the past 25 years, program participants have experienced:

Improved muscle tone, balance, posture, coordination, motor development and emotional well-being.

Increased eye-hand coordination.

Positive effects on centrifugal force – challenging the abdominal and lower back muscles.

Improved development of cognitive skills such as sequencing, spatial awareness, environmental awareness, directional awareness and motor planning.

Enhanced communication skills.

A sense of normalcy and control.

Improved self-discipline, self-esteem and sense of accomplishment.

Pride in learning (and sometimes competing) in an activity that promotes their special needs.
