How Faith Training Center Was Born
At age nineteen, Hannah had moved her love of horses from a hobby to a full time career. It was time to give the horse training and boarding stable a permanent name. As Hannah considered the gravity of such an important decision, she considered the names of typical horse boarding stables. The normal thing to do, she decided, was to name the stable after herself so that everyone would know who owned the barn. But Hannah wanted something very different; she wanted everyone to know Who had given her the talent that she has with horses. She wanted everyone to see that it is He that gifted her with her passions and blessed her beyond measure. Faith Training Center was born. Without God and her faith in Him, Hannah would not be the person that she is today. You can see that belief reflected in everything that is done at Faith Training Center. After all, the barn is a peaceful and blessed place because it is God’s barn!
Our customers say:
I moved my horse to Faith Training Center in the Spring 2017 and by far this is the best place I've ever boarded my horse since 2009. It is run professionally and like a business but with a family & welcoming environment. The land, barn, pastures, stalls, indoor & outdoor arenas are extremely well maintained. My first impression of the barn was that of a "fancy barn" (but not) because of how clean, organized & well maintained it is. Secondly, most impressive are the owners' young children. The children are respectful & very responsible around the horses such as, when riding the ATV toys, they stop, drive away or keep a good distance from the horses, & don't rev up the motor as they are fully aware to not spook the horses, & I find this amazing in their young children. The children's behaviors are a true testament of how the owners give respect to the horses, land, barn, the business & to the boarders. The owner is also very responsive to any questions/concerns & is willing to help. Awesome place!!! ~Karen, South Bend, IN
Faith Training Center in Lakeville. It's an hour drive but well worth it! I go there from Warsaw because I'm so impressed with it! ~Kelly, Warsaw, Indiana
Great staff and good care! I feel confident leaving my horse here, and can relax knowing that she is getting taken care of. I've had training done here as well. I myself learned a lot as well as my horse. Everyone here is eager to help and educate horse and owner. My horse and I have come a long way thanks to this great facility! :) ~Jenny LaPorte, Indiana
I boarded my first horse back in 2013 and I loved the place so much. Unfortunately I sold that horse. I came back to FTC late 2016 and there was many improvements. It has a lobby now. There's been many changes at FTC for the better. I'm so pleased to board with them. Great communication with Hannah. The best part is they care for the horses as they were theirs. I could keep going on and on and wouldn't be able to finish saying good things about FTC. I totally recommend Faith Training Center to anyone looking for a boarding stable. ~Vick Bremen, Indiana
I recently began boarding at FTC and am extremely happy! My girls have already shown a great improvement in their weight due to the quality of the feed they receive, and the sandy paddocks have done wonders for their feet as well. The facility is very nice, well kept, and well ran. Also, the atmosphere is very pleasant and relaxed. I look forward everyday, to my visit! I couldn't be happier! ~Laura ~Mishawaka, Indiana
I've worked and boarded with Faith Training Center for years. The barn has a welcoming, no-drama atmosphere and I've created many friendships with other boarders. All the horses are healthy and well cared for! The Barden family are wonderful, passionate, hard working people and the horses' well being are their top priority. As for training, there have been some remarkable transformations! Hannah is an excellent trainer and instructor. Whatever it is you might need assistance in, I am confident she knows exactly how to help. I highly recommend Faith Training Center, you won't be disappointed! ~Rachel Benton Harbor, Michigan
Hannah is a highly educated and caring barn owner. She cares about all the horses as if they are her own and works to always be improving the barns and pastures. The trainers work with every horse individually in order to
expose and fix all issues that he/she may have. If you want a place that is clean and cares about the horses like no other barn, then choose here. ~Paige M. South Bend, Indiana
Faith Training Center is the place to take your horse. Hannah is the best and I would recommend anyone to her. I have taken two of my own horses to her over the last several years as well as recently this year, and my sister, my husband's as well and we have all been very pleased with the results!! She is a natural along with her awesome staff. She not only is excellent at training the horses, but wonderful with the owners as well... Five Stars to Faith Training Center*****!! ~Anita North Liberty, Indiana
Faith Training center has done an excellent and thorough job retraining our horse. They were able to figure out what he knew and what his problem areas were. With great patience and skill, they have gotten him to where he needs to be. His trainers were always very willing to explain what they were doing and why...so helpful to us as we are learning too. Our experience there has exceeded my expectations. I would definitely recommend this facility for anyone looking to train or retrain a horse. They are professional and trustworthy. ~Ronda North Liberty, Indiana
Faith Training Center is a large facility with a brand new indoor riding arena, large box stalls, and a big outdoor riding arena. They have huge outdoor pastures and tons of land available for trail riding on the property. Hannah does a great job taking care of the barn and all of the horses. She is always around to help and offer any training tips when you need them. If you are looking for great place to bring your horse I highly recommend Faith Training Center. ~Ashley South Bend, Indiana

I fully recommend Faith Training Center and Hannah Barden. Hannah is a true horse woman, wise and patient. She has a gift. The facility is run with excellence and vision. ~Tricia Martin Mishawaka, Indiana
I've have been taking lessons at FTC for about a year now. I had very little experience and horse sense when I started. Hannah has taught me so much and continues to teach me every week. She is so patient, kind, and knowledgeable. The barn, stalls, and arenas are always clean and the staff is so friendly! I now own my own horse who is boarded here. I am confident that he is well cared for and looked after every day! I highly recommend Faith Training Center to everyone! They will definitely surpass all your expectations! ~Marcie, Lakeville, Indiana
Faith Training Center (FTC) is Amazing! I am so glad I made to move to this facility. The facility is well taken care of and is very clean. Everyone is always so nice and respectful. The staff is also very caring to the horses and very proactive.
I had a few training sessions for my horse at FTC. The results are impressive. The change in him was noticeable right away. I look forward to more training with FTC. ~ Marina Mishawaka, Indiana
