Dressage rda simulator 

​All the features of the dressage simulator with the additional features of our RDA software.

For many with both physical and mental disabilities, horse riding offers a therapy that they simply cannot achieve elsewhere. The Racewood RDA simulator offers the same life-like action that our other simulators produce and can carry riders up to 16 stone. It can be used all day, whatever the weather allowing riders to enjoy horse riding in a safe and controlled environment.

Working directly with the RDA in the UK, Racewood have developed an all-new digital landscape. Based on the countryside challenge, riders can explore over 4,000 acres of land, ranging from a stroll through a village, a hack through the woods or a ride on the beach. Interactive features allow the rider to engage with the environment e.g. posting a letter, collecting eggs, visit the farmyard. The software keeps track of how far each rider has travelled, the locations they have visited and the things they have seen and has the option to provide a printed certificate. 

"My name is Lewis Baker-Vose, I am fourteen years old. I have celebral palsy which affects all four of my limbs. Recently I began riding at Pendle Group Riding for the Disabled Association. I thoroughly enjoy this and cannot praise them enough. I ride the mechanical computerised riding simulator, which was bought by the National Lottery Fund. It helps me with my posture, core strength and stability, concentration, stamina, my walking ability and last but not least my speech and confidence."
