Nationally renowned philanthropist Karin Taylor, who is making an incredible difference in the lives of those with special needs, foster children, veterans, and at-risk youth through her profound equestrian therapy programs, sensory petting zoo, ranch tours, and horse riding lessons and clinics. A mother of 5, Karin owns and operates the jaw-dropping Weisberg Stables in Southern Florida, a 20-acre oasis for over 150 animals including mustangs, pigs, rabbits, chickens, tortoises, goats, ponies, emus, and adorable wallabies.
One of Karin’s most celebrated programs is called Unbridled Power, a one-of-a-kind equine assisted learning horse therapy program that focuses on helping veterans, disabled youth, and children develop critical life skills. Equine assisted learning is a remarkable learning approach that promotes the development of essential life skills through groundwork activities using horses as the teacher. This type of therapy has been proven to be more effective than talk therapy, and is especially beneficial for children with Autism.
