Cora Strigotte is our very talented owner/operator and head trainer. Cora is an impassioned rider with over 15 years in the saddle. She has competed in multiple disciplines, including but not limited to Hunter/Jumper, Saddleseat, Eventing, and Dressage. Cora brings with her vast experience gained from time spent as a working student and groom for both Five Star Eventers and a Grand Prix Dressage Rider and Gold Medalist. Cora is constantly learning from other trainers to continue her education in the equestrian sport and sharing it with her students.
In 2018, Cora purchased her first OTTB Nan's Pierce Arrow, this horse would be the horse that made Cora fall in love with training horses in general but especially off the track Thoroughbreds (OTTB). Nan's Pierce Arrow passed away in 2022 and to honor him Cora created Arrow Equestrian. This business biggest goal is to help horses that have been overlooked, like many OTTBs, find their new careers in Eventing, Jumpers, and Dressage. In 2022, Arrow Equestrian opened its doors to teach riding to beginners and young riders. As of November 2023, AE was officially open for the boarding and training of anyone that wants to learn Eventing, Jumpers, and Dressage. Our number one priority is the care and happiness of our equine partners.
