Ann is the best! She always has rider and horse best interest in mind and truly cares about each one of her clients. The barn environment she has created is full of friendly, encouraging individuals and happy, healthy horses. There are lots of show and clinic opportunities, and everyone (no matter the level of rider) is encouraged to participate. Ann is reliable, on time, and always there for her clients. Highly recommend!

Whether you are just starting out or working to compete at a higher level, Ann’s program is fantastic. She creates an environment that is safe and supportive. Her lessons are fun and challenging, and she gives her riders 100%. Ann is incredibly gifted and adapts her teaching style to match her horse and rider pairs. She is also an exceptional matchmaker for riders who are looking to buy or lease horses. The Fouret Farms team is an inclusive group of riders ranging in age and experience. The property is absolutely gorgeous, and the horses get plenty of space to run and be horses. I can’t recommend Ann’s program enough.

I have been riding with Ann for a year now. I’ve been with numerous barns and trainers, but Ann is by far the best. She always has the horses and riders best interest at heart. She is kind, compassionate, and always giving great feedback. I’m so lucky to have her as my trainer.

Fouret Farms is an amazing place to have an all round experience with people, great expertise and knowledge about technique, care and safety for you and the horse. As a new rider, Ann Fouret has been an incredible supportive trainer. Ann is a professional advanced rider/jumper and trainer and it is a true privilege having her help me become a better rider by her ability to explain why and how her techniques help you as a rider and the horse. If you are looking for a supportive, knowledgeable trainer, over the top horsemanship, and a whole lot of fun, Fouret Farms is a wonderful place.

The best place if your looking for high quality care and fun challenging lessons. The animals have top notch care and Ann is a professional equitation and jumper teacher/trainer. Couldn't have found a better barn.

My 10 yr old daughter had been riding less than a year with another trainer when she took a fall & lost her confidence. We met Ann to see if she could help. Not only did my daughter get her confidence back in less than a month, but she also found a role model in Ann, who is calm & gentle, yet also firm & disciplined. I have seen Ann patiently lead small children on a horse & have heard experienced women come out of the ring saying (with admiration), “That was one of the toughest workouts I’ve ever had!” Our family had no previous horse experience, yet Ann slowly taught us the basics of horsemanship & introduced us to other families who were just as helpful & welcomed us into their group. I would highly recommend Ann to anyone who is looking to get into riding, and also to anyone looking to advance their skills.

My girls have been with Ann for almost eight years and they love and respect her. She has taught them so much about how to be better equestrians, sportsmanship, and being part of a team. Every horse and rider is unique and she understands their learning styles and how to handle each one. Ann is reallly good with matching horses and riders as well. I would highly recommend Ann Fouret to anyone with a love of horses and a desire to be a better rider.

Ann Fouret is truly one of the best trainers I have ever encountered and I have been riding for over 15 years. She provides both horses and riders alike a tremendously correct foundation (refusing to rely on quick fix bandaid solutions), while also creating a very forgiving environment to learn in. Because of this balance, Ann is an incredibly unique trainer for all levels of riding and riding styles. She has a wonderful knack of knowing just how hard to push students and horses, without pushing too far. She is confidence building, kind, caring, fun, flexible, patient, fair and extremely good at teaching a variety of different people with different learning styles. She has made significant accommodations for both me and my horses. Most importantly though, she is the most incredible horsewoman - she genuinely LOVES the horses, and regularly goes far above and beyond the call of duty for both clients and horses. I would recommend her to anyone, any level of riding, and any discipline. She is truly one of a kind, but in all the very best ways!

Ann is the best! She has a unique ability to connect with both riders and horses. She's great with adult beginners like myself and A show riders who are ready to improve - adults or kids. Ann focuses on the fundamentals of riding and horsemanship. If you're looking for a trainer who will challenge you - and yet be kind to you and your horse in the process - she's wonderful. She's a beautiful rider and I've seen her transform horses with her training rides. Ann also helped me find and purchase my once-in-a-lifetime horse. She's AMAZING at helping match horse and rider! Oh - and your horse will be in love with her. They all are!

We’ve trained with Ann for eight years, and my daughter, now nearly 15, adores her. Ann is a kind, patient, safe trainer. She makes lessons and showing fun for kids while emphasizing basic horsemanship and careful, detailed riding. She is calm, never raises her voice, insists that her riders take responsibility for their horses as well as practice good sportsmanship at shows. Her training program is holistic—for Ann, the horses are partners, not instruments to be used and discarded. We couldn’t have found a better trainer for our horses and our daughter.

My daughter has been Ann's student for 4 1/2 years and she is the best trainer in this area (and we'd argue the Front Range or in Colorado). She truly focuses on finding the right horse for the rider and only advances them when he or she is ready. Not only is she caring and compassionate about her students and their well-being, she is equally so with the horses. We cannot recommend Ann highly enough.
