Ride Above Disability is located in Poway, CA. We first opened our doors to serve the community in 2014. We provide therapeutic horseback riding lessons for individuals with physical, cognitive, and emotional disabilities. We are proud to be a women & veteran founded & operated nonprofit. Our mission is to empower our participants and to Celebrate Ability, Create Hope, and Ride Above Challenges. Our program serves individuals of all ages, from children to seniors, and we are committed to providing affordable and accessible services to our community. We now also have an active-duty military and veteran riding program as well.

In addition to therapeutic riding, we also offer an extensive volunteer program, horsemanship lessons, volunteer continuing education, mentorships for new instructors in the industry, work-study programs, internships, disabled-adult work programs, a rider show team, and more! We have a team of experienced instructors and volunteers who work closely with our riders to ensure that they receive the best possible care and attention. Our horses are trained to provide a calming and nurturing environment, which encourages our riders to develop a sense of self-confidence and independence.
