Our Organization

Throughout the world, equine-assisted activities benefit the bodies, minds, and spirits of disabled individuals. A horse's gait, similar to the human walk, helps strengthen spine and pelvic muscles, which improves posture, muscle tone, balance and coordination, and increases joint mobility. Along with the physical benefits, horseback riding gives individuals a feeling of control and freedom that promotes confidence and increased self-esteem. It also helps motivate thinking and concentration as they are required to master riding and/or relationships with horses.

Equul Access, Inc. is a non-profit, 501(c)(3), tax-exempt organization registered with the State of Minnesota that provides equine-assisted activities for individuals with disabilities. Founded in 2002, we are a NARHA (North American Riding for the Handicapped Association) Premier Accredited Center.  Currently we are a volunteer sustained organization run by our Board, with assistance from our NARHA certified instructors, trained volunteers and equine partners. Our services are provided at our facility just south of Hutchinson, Minnesota in three 8-week riding sessions per year.
