About me:
My Name is Trish Thompson, I started riding lessons in 2012, and just couldn't get enough so I decided it was meant to be my life long passion. I'm now starting up my own career as a full time horse trainer, and riding instructor, and am having a blast doing it. Horses have helped me physically, mentally and spiritually, I want others to share my passion and experience some of the amazing things horses allow us to do. I find great accomplishment in watching a horse grow and learn under my guidance, and even more success when that education in turn allows them to move on and be a successful partner with their rider. I love doing a little bit of everything with my horses, and I feel it makes them great well rounded horses. I feel that a variety of different things engages the horse's mind and therefore creates a safer more experienced horse. My passion is dressage and jumping, but I always find joy in taking my horses out to the mountains, cattle penning, polocrosse, side saddle, working with obstacles and so much more!!
