Interested in becoming a therapeutic rider at TEAD? Once you have completed & submitted the rider Medical Form Package, all potential/ future riders are required to set up an appointment for a rider assessment here on the farm, conducted by one of our CanTRA (Canadian Therapeutic Riding Association) certified instructors.
Each assessment takes about 30 minutes in length, is unmounted (no riding will be taking place), and will be conducted utilizing our Equicizer - a mechanical horse used to simulate the movement of a real-life horse. Each assessment costs $45 and includes:
Before an assessment can take place, we require a Medical Form Package to be fully completed and returned to TEAD, with the second page filled out and signed off on by the rider's medical practitioner. The rider (or parent / guardian) must also sign beneath the doctor. Pages five and six are only required if they apply to the rider in question.
When completed, please either:
***Please do not send photos of the medical forms.***
All of our riders must receive approval from our Occupational Therapist at the Ron Joyce Children's Centre before they are permitted to ride. This ensures that all participants are medically safe to ride, and do not have any contraindications to riding.
Once approval is received, you will be contacted to arrange an appointment time for your assessment.
Important Notes:
NEW: For registrants who have opted to pay using E-Checks, and the payment fails, TEAD will invoice a $10 declined payment charge in addition to the full program fee.
To inquire about an assessment, please email Rachel at troton@tead.on.ca, or call 905-679-8323 ext. 226.
