Giant Steps is an equine therapy program founded in 1998 in the Bay Area by Robert Pope and Lee Justice. It offers therapeutic horseback riding lessons to people ages 4 to 94 with over 50 types of disabilities. The program aims to improve participants' physical, cognitive, and emotional well-being through the rhythmic movement of horseback riding. Giant Steps breeds and trains its own horses for therapy and is located at Riverside Equestrian Center in Petaluma. It provides 10-12 week sessions at a cost of $500 per session to riders, subsidized from fundraising.
