Meet the Founder
Hannah Darcy and Stormboy
Hannah Darcy has dedicated the past 12 years to starting and training horses, building a reputation for her patient, thoughtful, and connection-based approach to horsemanship. Alongside her horse Stormboy, Hannah has developed a training philosophy centred on trust, communication, and creating willing, confident horses both in and out of the arena. Her passion for horses extends beyond performance — she believes true horsemanship is built through understanding and partnership.
In addition to her work with horses, Hannah has spent several years running personal development programs designed to help people grow alongside their horses. She is passionate about the unique way horses can reflect human emotion, mindset, and leadership, helping riders develop confidence, self-awareness, and deeper connection. Through her programs, Hannah has helped people strengthen not only their horsemanship skills, but also their personal growth and confidence in everyday life.
Hannah founded Trendy Pony with the vision of creating a safe and supportive community where horse lovers could come together with a shared goal of connection. She wanted to create more than just a brand — she wanted a space where like-minded people could learn, grow, and feel inspired through their journey with horses. Trendy Pony reflects Hannah’s belief that horses have the power to bring people together, build confidence, and create meaningful relationships that extend far beyond the saddle.
