Great Facility!

We are SOOOO excited to show you all of our hard work. We’ve all been working SOOOO hard to make STLYSO 2.0 even bigger and better. We won’t lie, we were so close to closing the doors. And Our Redeemer called us and didn’t hesitate to jump on board. We will have FREE raffles, a TV, signed memorabilia, and other fun stuff. Weather permitting we will have Juan Taco and Mann Meats food trucks for your belly’s.

Our friends at Rawlings and Dicks Sporting Goods will be cutting the ribbon for all they have done for us, and our community.

STLYSO is a people, not a place. WE LOVE YOU STL. ⚾️🥎⚽️

Our adult children, no all of our children, should have a life and program like Skyler's.

A lot of people might think we just teach people how to ride and interact with horses.

But every session at Northland Therapeutic Riding Center is carefully designed around each participant’s unique needs.

All of our participants have a medical, emotional, or mental health diagnosis, and every class is built to help them strengthen skills that support daily life. That might mean improving balance and coordination, building communication and confidence, or learning tools for emotional regulation.

From how a horse moves, to how a volunteer walks beside a participant, to how an instructor gives cues, everything is intentional.

That is what makes equine assisted services so powerful.

General education has been funded the past few years, but special education has NOT! This drastically impacts all of our students in terms of larger class sizes, lack of supplies, fewer class offerings, etc We need to hold the legislature accountable to fund both areas.

Company of Champions Story~

Through our 501 C3, “Putting Families First” 20 year effort to strengthen families, a large population of special needs’ families emerged, who had the same need for support, and services, for their loved ones.

As a result, we organized a branch of special needs’ families, and titled the branch, Company of Champions. “Champions” has grown, incredibly, as more and more families join us, for friendship, connections, and services.

Each of these special needs’ families, care for a family member with disabilities. Many of the family members have developmental disabilities (Autism, Down Syndrome, CP. etc.), traumatic brain injury, physical disabilities, or suffer from an age related condition.
