Head Trainer/Rider

Taylor Jordan’s passion for horses began early, and her journey as a rider started when she got her first horse at the age of 11. Not long after, she entered the show ring, fueling a deep ambition to excel in the equestrian world. To pursue her goals, Taylor worked for trainers she admired, exchanging long hours of work for the opportunity to afford lessons, board, and competition fees. It was clear from the start that Taylor wanted to reach the pinnacle of the sport—not just as a rider, but as a true horsewoman and trainer.

Her dedication led her to train with top professionals across the U.S., including in Georgia, New York, Pennsylvania, and Florida. She later expanded her horizons in Europe, where she worked with world-class trainers and gained valuable international experience. Taylor immersed herself in the hard work and long hours required for success in the sport, constantly learning and refining her skills. From grooming to training, and from the psychology behind peak performance in the show ring to every detail of horse care, Taylor absorbed it all with enthusiasm.

While in Europe, Taylor had the privilege of attending numerous FEI shows, deepening her understanding of what it takes to succeed at the highest levels.
