Testimonials

I have known Sarah for five years now. I have watched her care for, train and handle horses as well as coach my daughter. She provides excellent care for all her horses each one being treated with compassion, knowledge and understanding. As a coach, she is patient and kind, watches closely explaining what is being taught and asking if the rider understands before moving on. She recognizes the strengths and weaknesses of her students and wants them to excel, providing opportunities to make it happen. She is approachable, organized and appreciated by all her students. My daughter Sophie is fortunate to have her believe in her. I highly recommend Sarah as a coach and trainer.

I gave clinics to Sarah, who I appreciate as a person, a good friend and a trainer, and I really noticed how her horses are well trained, well managed in the stable, confident and how they trust their rider. She rode her stallion Bon Baloubet from the very beginning and I think she did a great job. When I started to ride him he was 5 and he had a very positive mentality, a good flat work, and he really liked to work, which is so important for a young horse, and that was because of Sarah’s work in the first years of his life, that made him easier to ride and an easier job for me to grow him up to higher levels.

As a professional rider for over 40 years, I was so happy to become involved in Sarah’s stable when I retired back to Fredericton. She really knows her stuff ! The way she trains and works with horses really shows her knowledge ,confidence and a deep understanding of each animal that can only come with a ton of experience. Groundwork is the cornerstone of any horses education and Sarah really excels at this! I highly recommend her whether it’s for horse or rider training!

I love Sara King – She is wonderful with the horses ! She understands what a horse needs , in training , care of there needs first! I had My 4 yr old Friesian gelding-Xander in for training for the summer . She took things slowly not rushed, so he was so happy in his training and wanted to learn! I also had my horses boarded there, for a year! She understands the horses are a natural grazing animal!Round bale outside in winter , grass pasture in the summer, plenty of fresh water ! Also she looks at each horse as an individual on what nutrition they need in grain or supplements! Sara has loads of knowledge on many aspects of riding, clinics, ground work! She offers this to the horse community! She very fun and serious ! At the same time ! Which I love ❤️ about her , you feel very relax around the barn! Thanks Soo much for all you do!!

I'm an adult beginner, and working with Sarah has made me a much more confident and capable rider than I had ever hoped. Sarah has helped me to introduce my horse to new situations and has also guided me to improve my balance and strength (mental and physical!). She has also helped me to better anticipate and respond to challenges like a spooking or bucking horse. She is extremely compassionate and in-tune with horses-she really has a unique way with them. Sarah is an excellent coach and clinician and I highly recommend her services!

I full-heartedly recommend Sarah King; her abilities as a trainer are outstanding.

My OTTB and I had reached a plateau. I lacked the confidence and ability to get him further along in his development. Noting the success Sarah had had with other horses, I had the good sense to engage her.

Over just two months, Sarah trained him in all aspects of the training pyramid. I was invited to observe and when I did, Sarah explained what she was doing and why so I learned as well. Her approach is consistent and kind and based on sound principles. She’s also patient and creative, using a variety of approaches and techniques.

Sarah has transformed him! He works easily in a beautiful frame, transitions smoothly and obediently, and carries himself nicely. I am very pleased with the investment I made. He and I are both much happier than we would have been struggling along alone.

Sarah is an amazing trainer. I often call her ‘the horse whisperer' with the skills and patience she has training any horse. She both calms and connects with horses in a special way. You can see the evidence of this in the many off-the-track Thoroughbreds she has rescued and worked with, not to mention the amazing job she has done training her beautiful stallion Bon Baloubet.
