Hope Therapeutic Riding Center LLC
An Equine Therapeutic Riding Center For Riders of all Levels and Abilities
At H.O.P.E Therapeutic Riding Center we focus on each individual in a private / semi- private session, working on unique goals through the helping hearts and hooves of horses.
Meet the Teacher!
My name is Jackie Iannacone. I am a Franklinville, NJ native and have dreamt since I was 15 years old to have an equine therapy program using horses to help in the incredible way of healing that they do. I am a wife, mother and love every part of my family. I started riding at a young age and began my career in 2001 in farm/barn management, breaking and training horses, 4h leader, barrel racing with WPRA and NBHA, Equine Therapy Director for a non profit with veterans, and earned my PATH Certification in 2019. During this time I was a high school teacher for over 10 years, while still chasing my dream on the side. In 2022 I made the decision to leave my teaching career and pursue Equine Therapy full time, which has opened a whole new world for me. I love what I do and feel blessed to have this opportunity to work with people of all ages and abilities in this industry. God has been so good giving me experiences in life that have all come together for this program. If you or someone you love could benefit from the helping hearts of horses we would love to be a part of that.

Personal Training Sessions
Join this class, where I’ll teach you the ins and outs of the game. I offer Personal Training Sessions year-round for clients of any age and experience level.

Group Sessions
We offer several different group lessons throughout the week and month. From a monthly Mini Muckers course for those horse crazy kids looking to learn and enter the horse world to competitive group riding lessons.
Our Equine Partners
Winnie
Pennies for Starbucks, AKA Winnie, is our 2010 AQHA registered mare. Standing at 15.2 she is one of the farm favorites for her loving ability to guide and teach even our most nervous of riders. Winnie has had many different life experiences including, trail riding expert, ranch sorting and barrel racing. Her favorite things in life are scratches and her hay bale.
Toba
Toba is our 2011 Quarter horse type gelding. Toba stands at 15.2 and is one of our farm goofballs. Toba loves play time with friends and any chance he can get you to give him treats.
Confetti
Confetti is our senior class advisor and was donated to us from another therapy program. In his past life he was a show jumper and taught many children the ways of the English jumping world. Confetti is used for our walk trot only riders teaching them the basics of handling and is as cool as they come.
Scarlett
Miss Darlin Scarlett, AKA Scarlett, is a 2001 Foundation Quarter horse mare. Standing at 14.3 she spent most of her career barrel racing and chasing some cows. Scarlett still competes at local NBHA shows but is moving in to more of a teacher roll for riders looking to learn the sport.
Squirt
Squirt is our 2010, 12.1 hand gelding pony. Squirt came from another therapy program in the fall of 2021 and has been an incredible addition. He is as safe as they come for our therapeutic riders and young independent riders beginning their riding careers.
Trixie
Trixie is our 2006, 10 hand mini pony mare. She has been on a long-term lease to us through good friends and is loving being a part of the program. Trixie both rides and drives and loves participating in our monthly Mini Muckers program teaching little ones how to handle the bigger horses. Don't let her size fool you she thinks she is the biggest horse in the field.
