Peggy Ferdinand
PATH Certified Therapeutic Riding Instructor
Peggy is a PATH-certified riding instructor who will be offering therapeutic riding lessons at Leashes and Leads Equine Park. She began her journey in therapeutic horsemanship in 2016, when an unexpected job loss prompted her to explore certification through the Professional Association for Therapeutic Horsemanship (PATH). She has been teaching riders with disabilities, first as an instructor in training and then as a PATH Certified Therapeutic Riding Instructor, since 2018. She is also working on her TagTEACH certification (feel free to ask her about this, but…when you have some time to chat, because she gets really excited about using TagTEACH in future riding lessons!).
Peggy says, "I have loved sharing all-things-horse ever since I was a horse crazy teenager who would interrupt trail rides to give kids pony rides. My desire to provide therapeutic riding opportunities to people with disabilities is part of that urge to share. I'm looking forward to meeting people and teaching at Leashes & Leads, starting in June!"
