Rideability Therapeutic Riding Center, Inc. We offer Equine Assisted Services & Learning to children & young adults with diverse abilities & veterans. international.

We work with neurodiverse and physically diverse students. RideAbility’s vision began when watching the power of a horse with a child unable to walk with cerebral palsy. He was given an opportunity to move freely and independently while on the back of a horse– an approach called Therapeutic Riding which is supported by the Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship, P.A.T.H. Watching that child’s physical and emotional connection with the horse, and the way the child’s treatment accelerated, we knew we had found our calling. Combining our passion for riding and teaching therapeutic riding to special needs individuals along with our life-long love of horses, RideAbility opened in Clover SC in 2012 . We bring the benefits of therapeutic riding to individuals with a wide range of disabilities to South Carolina. At RideAbility, we offer a wide variety of Equine Assisted Services designed to empower children and adults with diverse disabilities, as well as veterans, on their journey toward greater independence and fulfillment. Our mission is to promote physical, emotional, social, and spiritual well-being through transformative power of equine assisted services and learning. We provide therapeutic riding and equine assisted services and learning for children and young adults with autism, ADHD, Down Syndrome, Cerebral Palsy, PTSD, anxiety, and various other diverse needs. Wendy Schonfeld the Director of RideAbility is a PATH Certified Therapeutic Riding Instructor, Advanced Special Olympics Equestrian Coach and a Doctor of Chiropractic. These combined skills allow her to offer a unique perspective as well as absolute competency directing and teaching Therapeutic Horseback Riding at RideAbility.

RideAbility’s Work-Study Program: Building Skills, Confidence, and Independence One Day at a Time! 🐴❤️

At RideAbility, our mission goes far beyond horseback riding. One of the programs closest to our hearts is our Work-Study Program, where we partner with local high schools and our students to provide participants with diverse disabilities the opportunity to develop real-world job skills in a supportive, encouraging, and inclusive environment.

Our students aren’t just visiting the farm. They are an important part of our team!

Through hands-on experiences, they learn responsibility, time management, communication, teamwork, problem-solving, and the importance of completing tasks independently.

Whether they are caring for our horses, helping maintain the barn, organizing equipment, preparing supplies, or assisting with daily farm responsibilities, every task has a purpose.

But what makes this program truly special isn’t just the work being accomplished. It’s the relationships being built.

Our incredible volunteers and staff have worked alongside many of these students year after year. They know their personalities, understand their challenges, celebrate their accomplishments, and encourage them to discover what they CAN do.

They don’t simply teach job skills. They build trust, friendships, confidence, and a sense of belonging.

For some students, learning to complete a task independently is a tremendous accomplishment. For others, it’s learning to communicate with a coworker, follow multiple directions, take initiative, or feel proud of a job well done.

Every accomplishment matters. Every student matters. Every opportunity to grow matters.

As I watch our team work with these students, I am constantly reminded that the greatest success of our Work-Study Program isn’t measured by how many stalls are cleaned or how many chores are completed.

It’s measured by the smiles, the growing confidence, the friendships, and the pride our students feel when they realize they are capable, valued, and needed.

To our volunteers and staff who pour their hearts into these students, thank you. Your patience, dedication, kindness, and belief in their abilities are what make this program so meaningful.

And to our students, you are not just learning to be part of a workplace. You already belong to one.

At RideAbility, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to learn, contribute, succeed, and feel the pride of a job well done.

❤️ Practice makes progress, not perfection.

🐴💙 Another Week of Success, Smiles, and Progress at RideAbility! 💙🐴

Every week, our riders remind us that success comes in so many different forms. Sometimes it’s a big milestone, and sometimes it’s a small accomplishment that means the world to that student and their family. ❤️

This week, we celebrated riders working hard to improve their balance, strengthen their core, follow directions, build confidence, develop independence, and overcome challenges.

But success isn’t always measured by what we can see. Sometimes it’s a rider finding the courage to try something new, staying focused a little longer, communicating more clearly, or discovering that they CAN do something they once thought was impossible.

🌟 At RideAbility, we don’t compare one rider’s progress to another. Every student has their own goals, their own challenges, and their own journey.

Our horses are incredible teachers, our volunteers are dedicated partners, and our students are the reason we do what we do.

We celebrate every effort, every breakthrough, every giggle, and every proud smile!

Because at RideAbility, practice makes progress, not perfection! 🐴❤️

Here’s to another wonderful week of learning, growing, and believing in ourselves!

We were so honored to welcome the Knights of Columbus of Lake Wylie for a visit and tour of our center!

One of the greatest joys of what we do is sharing our mission, introducing our incredible students and families, and helping our community see firsthand the difference that RideAbility makes in so many lives.

It truly fills my heart to know that we have a community that stands beside us, supports our mission, and holds our hands every step of the way. We could never do what we do without the kindness, generosity, and compassion of those who believe in us.

We feel incredibly blessed and deeply grateful for the community that surrounds our RideAbility family.

Thank you to the Knights of Columbus of Lake Wylie for taking the time to visit, learn about our mission, and share in something that means so much to all of us.

Together, we are changing lives, one student and one horse at a time! ❤️🐴
