"Long Term Equestrian Development". Sounds fancy. But what does it have to do with you?
A lot! Please read on!
Every person who picks up a pair of reins has taken their first step along the equestrian Pathway . This Pathway details the progression of a rider from their very first experience all the way to the Olympic podium. Each rider decides how far along the pathway they'll travel, but the journey has been mapped out to ensure safe and successful learning.
One of the components of the Pathway is the Long Term Equestrian Development program. Started nationwide in 2007, this program takes riders from their current lesson program and guides them through a set of specialized lessons, training sessions, and off-horse seminars, taking them further along the Pathway and into a Team competition experience.
In years past, the NBEA's Long Term Equestrian Development (LTED) program has focused on riders new to the disciplines, on riders new to competition, and on coach development. These ...

Equestrian sport can represent an opportunity for freedom and movement to people with disabilities. It can also be a rejuvenating component in a therapeutic program. With various degrees of assistance and support, horse sport can be a reality for many people, whether a child with cerebral palsy or an adult with paralysis. People with disabilities can learn to ride a horse, compete alongside their peers and progress to high level competitions like the Paralympics or the World Equestrian Games. Challenges can be overcome and the experience is often rewarding.
