Valiant Equestrian

We are grateful to have met Emily the owner of Valiant Equestrian and her colleague Courtney. My daughter has been training with them for about a year. They're both so kind, fun and highly skilled in their trade. The environment at Valiant is welcoming and inclusive to all, you can tell the horses are really happy to be there as well! They care about the kids not only as equestrians but as people too. Highly recommend booking a tour to go see for yourself!

My daughter has been riding for 7 years and it is only this last year Emily has been coaching her, along with her amazing colleague Courtney. I am new to the Equestrian world and Emily and Courtney have a way of making me comfortable learning and growing within this beautiful establishment. I didn’t realize my daughter’s potential or what she was capable of until Emily and Courtney started to train with her. This two women are an inspiration and truly inspire all the riders they work with to grow, evolve and enjoy. The connections my daughter has made through working with Emily is incredible. I look forward to continuing on the equine journey with Valiant.

My girls were here for a visit this summer. Emily was able to fit them in for private lessons, and my girls learned so much more in just a few weeks than any other stable they have gone too.
The temperament of the horses also shows by the atmosphere in the barn. All the horses are very kind and patient with newer riders. I’m sure my girls will be waiting to come back next summer. Thank you so much Emily and Courtney.
You ladies are amazing !!!

I started lessons with Emily 4-5 years ago. Emily was my first official coach, she made me the rider I am today. Not only does she teach her students to ride, but also real horsemanship and how to care properly for your mount. 100% recommend Valiant Equestrian! Emily is the absolute best out there!! 💗

I’ve been lucky enough to take lessons under several different coaches at multiple stables, and I can say that coaching from Emily of Valiant Equestrian has been a whole new level above and beyond my previous experiences. She brings to the table a much deeper level of understanding of how horses move and learn, and additionally understands how to teach these concepts in a language that anyone can understand, both kids and adults. She sees both sides of the horse / rider relationship and is experienced in uniting the two. Her ethics are stellar - she consistently promotes the welfare of the horse, good sportsmanship, and the value of hard work. Her coaching always aligned with these ethics whether she’s teaching in public or behind closed doors. The levels and experiences she’s reached in her own personal riding history confirm her proficiency and inspire confidence that she truly knows what she’s teaching. I highly recommend Valiant Equestrian and hope to return to learning under Emily in the future.
