Welcome to The Equestrian Center
Janet Evans
Janet began her riding career in 1966 with Vicki Hart and hasn’t stopped since. As a child, she rode Western, Hunters, ran barrels and showed a built up Tennessee Walker. As an adult, Janet took up Dressage, more Hunters; and who can resist the thrill of Eventing or the beauty of an AQHA halter horse. She has studied with many of the top riders and trainers in the country in multiple disciplines and enjoys sharing that knowledge with others.
Our Horses Look Forward to Meeting You!
