Allie Peck
Allie is one of our trainers here at Concordia Stables. In addition to training horses, Allie also instructs beginner riding lessons!
​
Allie grew up in the beautiful Green mountain state of Vermont. She has been riding and working with horses for over 20 years, since taking her first riding lesson at 6 years old. She graduated from the University of New Hampshire in 2020 with a Bachelor's degree in Equine Studies: Industry and Management. A few months after graduating college, Allie moved to Pennsylvania and began training horses professionally.
​
Allie has worked with many horses of all types, temperaments and disciplines - from Rocky mountain horses to Lusitanos, Clydesdales, 13 hand ponies and everything in between! While Allie has experienced multiple different disciplines, she is most specialized in Dressage, having interned with Sons of the Wind, worked closely with Patrick King and Frank Burns, and following the works of Charles de Kunffy. Her training values are deeply influenced by the work and principles of Warwick Schiller, as well as Andrea Wady. Allie highly values her relationship with her horses, wanting them to feel seen and heard. Inspired by the desire to deepen her relationship with her horses, last fall Allie began to venture into riding her horse at liberty. This is an area she is very excited to grow in!

The two cuties pictured with her here are her boys Odin (left) and Amiano(right). Along with being a horse trainer, Allie is a certified Personal Trainer. Allie can help you develop a plan to improve not only your horses fitness and training, but your rider fitness as well! Rider fitness focuses a lot on core stability and whole body mobility. Improving your rider fitness off the horse will enhance your ability to feel more balanced in the saddle and better able to use your aids effectively. If you get to know Allie, you will quickly learn that she loves cats as much as she loves horses! Any cat in need that comes into her life, she takes under her wing. She has TNRed and cares for several outdoor kitties, and dreams of being able to open a cat sanctuary one day so she can give every cat in need a home!
