About

Sue Ballentine is the owner, trainer, and instructor for High Meadows Farms. Sue started riding at a very young age and has not been able to stop since. Sue has a very unique way with horses and people. Great communication skills, the ability to teach riders of all ages from toddlers to seniors, and a friendly, professional attitude that makes High Meadows Farms a place where everyone feels welcome. Although Sue is a double certified horseback riding instructor, teaching people how to ride is not her main objective. She views herself as a builder of self-confidence, acceptance, and responsibility. So many of Sue’s students arrive at her barn for the first time as scared, timid, and withdrawn individuals. They are immediately taken in by Sue’s caring and friendly embrace and quickly feel at ease amongst the quiet and understanding horses and the friendly smiles of everyone around. Upon becoming part of High Meadows Farms these students suddenly blossom into strong and confident people and feel like they have a place where they belong.

What clients have to say about Sue Ballentine

Testimonials

"Sue is a wonderful person and talented instructor. She is able to take her students through the stages of getting acquainted with the horses, how to interact with them, how to groom them, and how to gear up. She conducts her classes in a professional, yet warm and relaxed environment, which is great for beginners. She instills her students with knowledge and confidence." – Janine Mastrangelo

"Sue Ballentine, owner and trainer, is a petite woman with a wide smile, calm disposition and seemingly strong as –well a horse– She inspires every student. They come out with a true working knowledge about horses, and the business of horses, while making the experience fun and memorable for all. Her facility is by far the best I have seen with views like no other."
