Testimonials

"I’ve had the pleasure of riding with Tiffany since I was fourteen. For the past seven years—an entire third of my life—she has been an incredible mentor both in and out of the saddle. As I grew up within Tiffany’s program, I learned firsthand what it meant to be a responsible, thoughtful, and ultimately empathetic individual. Leading by example, Tiffany taught us the importance of hard work, adaptability, and respect for people and horses alike. I couldn’t help but notice the remarkable care that she poured into every element of T&E. Now that I’m in college, I’ve carried these lessons out of state. I have the honor of riding on the Stanford Equestrian Team, a goal that Tiffany helped me train for from the moment I got my college acceptance. Whenever I return home for break, she still welcomes me back to ride. Without Tiffany’s mentorship, I wouldn’t be the person I am today."

Her authenticity shines through in all she does. She is firm but fair, sees the best in each and every client, and has a knack for matching and partnering horse and rider.
