Testimonials

This facility is perfectly named. Carolyn and Garth have cultivated an atmosphere of growth, learning, and grace—an environment that truly reflects the spirit of the horsemanship journey. Here, every journey is honored. Whether your goal is personal development, competitive aspiration, or simply a deeper connection with your horse, you’re encouraged to move forward in a direction that brings out the best in both horse and human. All ages are welcome to learn, grow, and discover. Each path is unique, and thoughtful guidance is available for those seeking support along the way. In addition to lessons and training, the facility offers a variety of fun events open to all—adding joy and community to the experience. Twice a year at Grace Equestrian, I have the privilege of helping eager students take the next step on their horsemanship journey. It’s always a joy to be part of their growth. I truly enjoy the people, the atmosphere—and yes, the food! I always look forward to the clinic and the opportunity to return.

My daughter Leeya and I have been coming to Grace Equestrian Centre since she was 3.5 years old for riding lessons. After being mentored and coached by Carolyn for all these years, Leeyas riding skills have developed to the point that now at 9 years old she is a very strong rider. She has learned how to love, respect and care for horses and from day 1 has been using the Natural Horsemanship methods that Carolyn teaches. She now boards her own pony at the farm, continues taking her twice weekly lessons and loves being there every day that she possibly can. Possibly the best part of our life at Grace is the friendships we have gained. The environment is loving, welcoming and inclusive. Carolyn and Garth and all of the other people who learn, teach, board and help at the farm have become such an important part of our lives and we are so so grateful for our barn family.

Grace Equestrian Centre has provided smiles for 100’s of Underground Gym kids consistently for the last 20 years and counting.  Without their support, our underprivileged kids would not have the opportunity to experience the connection between horses and kids. We are so very grateful for Carolyn and Garth for everything that they do for our kids.
