Cori Trout
Cori Trout has been working professionally with horses in some capacity since 2003. She pursued an Associated in Applied Sciences: Equine Science and afterwards finished her BFA in Art Education. From there she sought, and obtained certification through the American Riding Instructors’ Association (ARIA), currently holding a Level II Certification in Dressage, Driving, and Recreational Riding.
After buying a Belgian mare with her husband in 2006, her interest in learning to drive horses was sparked and grew into not only learning how to drive, but how to train horses (and other hooved creatures!) to drive as well. Using sound dressage principles and a systematic, thorough approach she helps both humans and horses learn how to better communicate with each other to create harmonious partnerships. She is based in Queen Creek, Arizona, USA with her husband, children, and horses.
