Donna Pace, Owner & Operator
Donna has been a top trainer in Fairfield County for over 30 years. As a junior rider, Donna showed in the Junior Hunters and Jumpers and has also had formal dressage training. She enjoys training riders of all ages and experience and also bringing along young horses.
Donna has the unique ability of creating training programs for each individual customer depending on their needs and goals. Donna’s approach to training allows her students to reach their full potential as riders while enjoying themselves at the same time. She believes that developing a relationship with your horse or pony outside of the ring is just as important as being a great rider inside the ring.
