A participant may ride a horse at some point; however, 98% of our exercises are done on the ground. We are not a riding program. When riding becomes the goal it changes the dynamics for both the horse and participant. In our program, if a client does ride there is  a specific purpose for that client.

It’s not unusual for someone to be afraid at first. Horses are large and can be intimidating. We honor the process of working through fear and discovering both physical and emotional safety.

You can begin by calling to schedule an appointment. We will send you a brief questionnaire to answer and return prior to your first session. You will also be asked to sign a standard waiver of liability. Our EAL site is at 2731 E 2625^th Rd just outside Marseilles, IL.

Everyone is required to sign a waiver of liability to participate.  We also request you to complete a brief questionnaire prior to your first session.  You will find a link for our forms included on our website.

We do request a donation of $30 per individual session and ask that clients commit to a minimum of 4 sessions. Many times people don’t get help because they can’t afford it. They deal with pain or injustice by stuffing it or ignoring it. Because Changing Tracks seeks to restore hope and healing, we purposed from our beginning to help anyone (regardless of their ability to pay) that wants help and is ready to commit to it. Group rates are dependant on the size of the group and generally begin at $200/2 hour session.

You need to bring your papers and completed questionnaire if they haven’t already been returned. Please be sure to bring your donation as well.

Be sure to wear appropriate clothing.  Long pants or jeans and shoes with closed toes are preferable.   Absolutely no sandals!  Also keep in mind you might get dirty.
