The team at RMRT is comprised of compassionate and experienced  instructors, therapists, volunteers, and equine trainers. The therapists and instructors at RMRT have made significant contributions in the field of equine assisted therapies and activities.

Why Horses? They are thoughtful in their decision making and they give honest and immediate feedback. Experiencing and learning from herd dynamics allows us to shift and make small changes in our actions and behaviors, cultivating our social and emotional intelligence skills over time. We view our horses as equal partners in our work. They are the heart of everything that we do!
