Levada for hypotherapy classes is a necessary part of the rehabilitation program for children with developmental disabilities and the training of rehabilitation specialists at the Faculty of Rehabilitation Pedagogy and Social Work at the Khortytsya National Training and Rehabilitation Academy. The effectiveness of psychological and socio-pedagogical rehabilitation of children with peculiarities of psychophysical development increases in contact with such animals as a horse and a dog. The confirmation of the fruitful achievements of the experimental activity of the institution was awarding it the status of innovative in 2007. The Academy was rewarded for its significant contribution to the development of domestic education, the development and practical implementation of innovative technologies of comprehensive medical, psychological and pedagogical, social rehabilitation of children and young people with special educational needs. On the territory of the academy there is a stable with 6 horses, which have been used by qualified specialists on hypotherapy for conducting classes with children.

Classes were held in the park of the academy, so there was an urgent need for the construction of an open levada for conducting classes. Creating a special site is of great practical importance. Decorating this site with ornamental plantations, creating a fruit garden, a cozy recreation area, beautified with flower beds and equipped with elements of landscaping, will positively affect the environment, improve the aesthetic perception of the territory, provide comfortable, safe and effective training for the rehabilitation of children with poor health.
