Introduction
In 1980, Shirley Klassen's Training Stable opened for business in
Ferme Klassique, after relocating to Quebec.   We have more than
35 years of experience training most breeds of horses to do most
anything in the show arena, for pleasure, on trails, in harness for
work or for fun, even for films.  We offer the services of an Equine
Canada Senior National Judge, do consultations for horse
evaluations in legal, estate and insurance matters and give horse
training clinics and judging seminars in both English and French.

We operate year round and full time in Mascouche, Quebec,
northeast of Montreal. Ferme Klassique is the home of our senior
Arabian stallion,
Masallah Arabiya, and the brood mares that make
up our breeding program that allows us to offer several top
quality Arabian horses for sale each year.  Through referrals from
clients, we are able to offer top quality horses of all breeds and all
disciplines for sale throughout the year.

For further information on our training specialities, check our
Training services link to the left.  Also offered by link are
horses/tack for sale in
Classified ads and check out Our exotic
birds for a look at our collection of exotic birds and waterfowl.

We are proud of our history of success (see
About Us), our
reputation for firm gentleness in handling our equine students and
our long list of satisfied clients (see
Testimonials...).  We hope that
you enjoy our site and would love to hear your comments!
