We would like to welcome Tiffany Larsen and her clients to The Double D Ranch and Equestrian Center!
Tiffany Larsen’s lifelong passion for horses began at just three years old. From an early age, she immersed herself in horsemanship, culminating in the remarkable achievement of packing the entire 500-mile Colorado Trail from Denver to Durango alongside her mother and close friends—an experience that reflects her resilience, dedication, and deep love for the equestrian lifestyle.
Tiffany studied Equine Science and Business at Colorado State University (CSU), where she distinguished herself through notable accomplishments. She won a collegiate colt-training competition, was selected as a representative for the CSU Show Judging Team, and served as a university ambassador. In recognition of her leadership and commitment to the industry, she was chosen to participate in an international program in South America.
As a Certified Horsemanship Association (CHA) certified instructor, Tiffany is formally trained in equine instruction for both English and Western disciplines. She has competed in numerous horse training competitions, demonstrating skill in developing horses and riders alike.
After college, Tiffany founded her own equine business, TLD Horse Training, originally working as a mobile trainer and clinician. Over time, the business evolved to include horse camps, showing, and confidence-building programs designed to support both horses and their humans. Tiffany also guides, cooks, and organizes backcountry adventures alongside her mother through Mile to Wild Backcountry Horse Adventures. Above all, she is a proud mother of two young, adventurous cowgirls who share her love of horses and the outdoors.
For the past 12 years, Tiffany has served as Manager, Trainer, and Instructor at Carlisle Equestrian Center. There, she has built a strong reputation for her comprehensive training programs, dedication to rider education, and unwavering commitment to horse welfare. She leads a successful 4-H show team and conducts specialized clinics covering obstacles, horsemanship skills, and “Camping With Horses,” helping riders develop confidence, partnership, and practical trail abilities.
Tiffany has also had the privilege of working with respected horsewoman Susan Fay, further enriching her knowledge and perspective within the industry.
Known for her patience, positive coaching style, and depth of knowledge, Tiffany Larsen continues to inspire riders of all levels while fostering safe, confident, and harmonious relationships between horses and their owners.
