BEIJING, March 31 — On a crisp spring day at a Beijing equestrian club, 14-year-old Victor Liu climbs into the saddle of a dark-haired horse, starting the latest session of a sport that has changed his life.
Just north of Beijing, tall trees and the neighing of horses and ponies offer respite from the stress of China’s chaotic capital. Victor, who also suffers from visual impairment, has been riding horses at Hope’s centre for over eight years. His mother, Stella, told AFP she has seen marked progress in his ability to listen to instructions and coordinate his movements.At Hope’s riding centre, horses and humans bond, the air filled with the clattering of hooves as the animals follow attendants around the site.
Since then, advocates have used the occasion to develop new ways to help people with autism, while raising awareness and demystifying the condition.
