Our Philosophy | What our Clients Say | Meet the Trainers | Our Facility 


Connie Sparks, CRI - Owner & Trainer/Instructor
Connie Sparks recently moved Epona Equestrian Center to 4228 Springhill Community Road.   The new facility is a full-service equestrian center offering boarding, horse training, riding instruction, and children’s equestrian camps and is located on 135 acres featuring pastures and paddocks, a large, lighted indoor riding arena, and a large outdoor arena.  Connie is ARIA Certified Riding Instructor, Level II and has trained with top trainers around the US.  She has been actively involved in the equestrian world at a number of levels since she was 8 years old and has owned Epona Equestrian Center for the last 9 years.  She offers riding instruction for ages 6 and up at all abilities in both English and Western. Connie specializes in teaching the rider to become one with the horse through balance, riding position, and proper communication.  Her children’s riding programs stress responsibility of horsemanship while promoting confidence and self-esteem through riding.    Connie also offers training for horse at all stages and abilities.  She is also available for consultations on purchasing the proper horse or solving equine problems with your existing horse.

Meet "The Girls"

One of the first things that you will notice about Epona Equestrian Center is there is never a shortage of young equestrians around the place.  Don't let age fool you, most of the Girls have years of riding experience and spend all of their free time out at the barn.  They assist Connie in the day to day running of Epona and serve as Junior mentors to young riders.

I love riding and I love horses.  I have been riding with Connie for four years.  She is a very, very good instructor.  I have made a lot of good friends at Epona and make more every year.  I come to the barn almost every day during the summer and as many as possible during the school year.  My favorite part about riding is jumping high jumps and cantering.  It takes a lot of hard work, but at the end of the day it all pays off!

I live in CA, so the 1st thing I do when I come to MT is go to the barn.  All my friends here are at the barn which is one reason I like to go there.  Working around the ranch and with the horses has taught me a lot of responsibility.  Connie is a great riding teacher and a really nice person.  She taught me everything I know about English riding.  The best part is the cross country jumps because there are jumps for all abilities.
