We consistently produce some of the best hunters, jumpers and equestrian riders competing provincially, nationally and internationally.
The magic of horsemanship is the opportunity it provides horses and rides: the opportunity to communicate and develop together, as a team.
The individual turnout pens are large, grassy areas and we also offer group turnout options.
Lynne's years of experience provide a diverse set of training techniques, enabling her to identify and use the best strategies for each horse-and-rider team.
Every horse at Concorde receives a customized care program. We proactively monitor every horse in our care to help ensure overall health and wellness.

About the Stable
Concorde Equestrian Training offers an elite training program for both horse and rider. We produce high caliber hunters, jumpers, and equitation riders competing provincially, nationally and internationally. We operate as a Show Barn where all riders participate in a balanced show schedule. We show at a selection of venues, both national and international, including Spruce Meadows, with a schedule that adapts to the current athletes and their level of ability.
Concorde's team philosophy focuses on doing what it takes to consistently aid riders in obtaining goals. This has allowed for the utmost quality in rider development – as well as horse development. The collaborative effort among Concorde's riders/athletes, parents, spouses, staff and coaches is a reflection of their dedication and love of the sport.
With its outstanding facility, great horses and educated people, Concorde's vision just makes sense:
“To have a serious and rewarding business that continually obtains measurable goals in relation to developing riders and horses to the fullest ability.”
Horse Development
Concorde focuses on developing a strong, two-way bond between the horse and rider. Understanding how a horse thinks or knowing why a horse will react in a particular way is one of the most important factors in the horsemanship program.
