No matter your skill level, our instructors provide lessons designed to help you improve your riding abilities and build confidence.
Proffesionalism & Passion for Horses
Horses are more than just animals; they are a passion and hobby for many people. There’s something special about the connection between humans and horses that has been around for centuries. Whether you’re an experienced rider or just starting out, horses can provide a sense of relaxation, adventure, and fulfillment. We provide a professional and safe environment for you to enjoy.
Trinity Trotters is great. We’ve had horses boarded here for three years. My daughter has been taking lessons here most of that time. The coach has been wonderful. The staff is very patient and knowledgeable and has really helped get our horses healthy and have taught us a lot about horses and their care. The property is large and well maintained. I always recommend TTE for anyone looking for a place to board their horse or take horseback riding lessons. Chris Jackson
I have boarded at Trinity Trotters for more than 5 years and would not dream of going anywhere else. The staff are extremely knowledgeable and caring. The facilities are top notch, 2 indoor arenas both have new footing put in this summer, 4 outdoor arenas, 2 round pens and awesome hacking down to the creek. The welfare of the horses is always put first. I highly recommend Trinity Trotters. Lynn Brammal

Nicola Togo
I’m your camp counselor, beginner coach, and equine therapy guide for youth and adults with disabilities.
My love for horses started at a young age. In 2006, my mother and I founded Trinity Trotters Equine. My first pony was a pregnant Hackney cross with dropped fetlocks, and her foal, Gus Gus, is still with us today! My first rideable horse was Mabel, a fiery 8-year-old Standardbred mare, who I got when I was 8. From pole bending to jumping to barrels, she could do it all—just with egg beater feet!
Judith Bishop
Judith started riding at age 9 and has been passionate about horses ever since. As a junior, she competed in local shows and continued throughout her 20s and 30s. In the 80s, she ran Homecrest Stables, a busy boarding barn that hosted monthly schooling shows in the summer.
Judith continued riding, training young horses, and competing on the Trillium Circuit. In 2002, she began studying Parelli Natural Horsemanship after attending the “Success with Horses Tour” at Hendervale Farm. By 2015, she and Riva earned their “Green String.” Over the past 10 years, Judith has competed in both English and Western Dressage.
After retiring in 2016, Judith focused more on horses and began teaching beginners at Trinity Trotters in 2022. She is now a registered instructor with Equestrian Canada and working toward her Certified Instructor status. More info at judithmbishop.net.
