An instructor member from Guadalajara, Mexico, Meche is a PATH Intl. Certified Registered Instructor and teaches therapeutic riding and unmounted horsemanship lessons. Her program, Riendas para la Vida, provides lessons to more than 30 participants with disabilities, 50% of whom get free lessons through government programs. Meche enjoys working with five horses, a great group of volunteers, instructors and horse leaders.
On the topic of education, Meche says, "Education is very important for me because I'm leading one of the few programs in Mexico working with PATH Intl. Standards and a Certified Instructor." We are thrilled to be able to welcome Meche and all of the other registrants to the 2018 PATH Intl. Virtual Conference. Want to join them? Register today!
