I am Deb Hauser, a physical therapist with the Lenawee County School District in Southeastern Michigan. I am licensed to practice in Colorado and Michigan. I live on a 7-acre farm with my husband, son and 3 stepdaughters, in Saline MI.

We are enjoying the process of establishing and maintaining RIDE4FUN, Inc., a non-profit therapeutic riding program.

I have been actively involved with NARHA since my introduction at the National conference in 1994.

Horses have been an integral part of my life ever since I could walk. My horse Leo Thunderbolt (Chief) and I spent many long hours in conversation about the important things in life beginning with our show days in 4-H to my recent marriage.

I have served on two therapeutic riding program boards over the last 10 years, as well as co-chair for the State of Michigan for 4 years. I am excited to be a part of the NARHA Regional Representative Council, since Jan 2004. It is exciting to be a part of a NARHA, an organization that continues to evolve.

I am a registered riding instructor and registered therapist through NARHA (North American Riding for the Handicapped Association), as well as an AHA (American Hippotherapy Association) member.

Hi there! My name is Jessica Moore and I recently joined the Ride4Fun crew as a therapeutic riding instructor.

My entire life, I have had an immense love for animals- horses in particular. I graduated from the Lee Honors College at Western Michigan University with a degree in geriatric psychology, and could not wait to get out in the world and use my degree. However, after 5 years and 2 careers, I still did not feel as though I was doing what I was meant to do. I knew there had to be some way to combine my love for animals with my desire to help people, and still earn a living.

Thankfully for me, I soon discovered the world of therapeutic horseback riding. What began as a simple volunteer opportunity quickly evolved into a career dream. This past summer, I completed the certification process and became a NARHA registered instructor and have not looked back since. Finally, I found a way to spend time with the animals I love and simultaneously introduce so many wonderful individuals to their healing powers. There are not many people who can honestly say they love their jobs. I am one of the lucky ones!

Outside of working and playing here at Ride4Fun, I also teach part time at Therapeutic Riding Inc. in Ann Arbor and Banbury Cross in Oxford. I am also the Equine & Safety Director for Camp Casey, a non-proft mobile horse camp for children with cancer.

In my 'spare' time, I enjoy spending time with my husband, Jon and our 2 horses, 2 cats, 2 goats and one wonderful dog at our home in Holly. I am so happy to be a part of the Ride4Fun family and look forward to much continued growth here in the coming years!
