Showing off one of my current students from
Northern Twilight Farm, Finn! She’s here to gain some more life experience and she is a very welcome presence here! Always curious (especially when kids are around) and friendly. This is her watching the other horses do free jumping, she also had her turn and did fabulously!

Some of my favourite young horses are 3 and 4 year olds, 5 year olds are similar to late teens/early twenties humans that aren’t big fans of advice or suggestions. But 3 and 4 year olds are so happy to try and just take in experiences! But Finn is an exceptionally curious young lady, with a clever brain to match that makes “training her” feel like you’re not doing much at all!

Hello again everyone!

I just realized today going through my whole catch up for chores, bookkeeping, and admin that I am behind on updating everyone on the 2026 policies. I have some new ones as business is picking up (yay!) to help keep things flowing for myself, and hopefully you all as well!

For 2026 I have added a Lesson Cancellation Policy which is that lessons cancelled within 24hrs of the lesson time will still be charged the lesson fee. While I try to remain flexible, last minute cancellations do not allow me to rebook and fill the spot which I am able to do with more time, thus lose me much needed funds to keep my business operating. I am getting to point size wise it isn’t fair to others if I cannot fit them in, and I cannot lose money with the amount of horses I have to keep fit and healthy. I understand emergencies happen, so I will use discretion.

Along with the cancellation policy, is 3 Missed Lessons Policy. I am to the point I have a lesson waiting list (exciting), so we have come to a stage where I need slightly more commitment from riders. 3 missed lessons in a row results in the time slot being given to someone else able to commit their time. I will still attempt to get these riders lessons, but they will have to work around my schedule.

Another important update is that my prices have adjusted (I do believe I had put out an update on this). Under 6 years old is still $30 for a lesson, but 6 years and up has moved to $35 to keep up with inflation.

As always please reach out with any and all questions! Thank you all for being patient as I work to get my schedule flowing more smoothly!

My page has had a fair few new followers recently, so I am sharing a bit about me again as it can be good to share a bit of an introduction occasionally. I believe in making informed choices and knowing more about people can help us figure out if we'll be able to work together well.

It's now been 4 years since I founded WREN Equestrian, in an effort to find a form of employment that worked well for me but also to share my love of horses with people who felt the same way I did. I consider myself a life long learner and believe very strongly in trying to use curiosity in all experiences. I think we can often miss opportunities for learning and engagement because we close ourselves off, whereas curiosity opens us up to possibilities.

Diversity is important to myself and my business, because it was my differences that led me to founding WREN. I am AUDHD, which stands for autism/ADHD, or neurodivergent. I struggled with Mon-Fri, 9am-5am jobs throughout my youth and young adulthood. Something very common for those who are neurodivergent. WREN allows me to make my own schedule, with as much flexibility or rigidity as I need to function well. I spent a very long time thinking I was a failure, a troublesome person, because I couldn't conform and stick to working jobs without losing interest and struggling psychologically. After being diagnosed as an adult with AUDHD, my world made so much more sense.

I do not discuss it often, but I am also a member of the LGBTQIA+. I personally identify as bisexual and non-binary (though there is some fluidity to this, and most frequently I feel female). The only real reason I mention this, is because I frequently do not feel safe in all equestrian environments and it is important to me that other's feel safe with me. This means I cultivate an environment that is safe for us all, horses, humans, and anything else that might need it within the spaces I control.

Everyone is welcome at WREN Equestrian, but I highlight some areas that might be difficult for others so that they can make informed choices about where and whom they spend time with. Most of my time is spent talking about horses, but I may still not be everyone's cup of tea. Which is a-okay and exactly why I like to share about myself outside of horses, so that you can make the choices that are best for you.

Hello everyone!

Hope you all have been enjoying the sunshine and warmth we've had, I know I have! The horses and ponies sure have been as well, napping hard in that sunshine!

I wanted quickly post here as I know dance and hockey are both ending here soon, that spots for lessons have been filling up. It is slightly busier for me as I am also doing EAL in April and May, but even so with as much interest as I have it will likely be difficult to fit everyone in with school going.

There are summer camps coming up as well, so I will do my best to get kids as much horse time as they can!
