About the owner/trainer
Sorrows End Farm is owned and
managed by Laura Mondul. She is
also the trainer and instructor for the
farm. In her 'spare' time, Laura is
also a freelance writer for the Bristol
Herald Courier.
A native of Herndon, Va., Laura has
been riding and managing horses for
32 years. She has trained at and
managed several private farms and
has a diverse background in a
number of disciplines. She is a
graduate of Virginia Intermont
College in Bristol, Va., which boasts
one of the country's leading four-year
equestrian studies programs. She
also trained with a Grand Prix
dressage rider, several upper-level
eventing trainers, and a champion
steeplechase trainer, among others.
Fueled by the kind of dedication
brought about from cleaning LOTS of
stalls, Laura mucked her way from a
horse-crazy kid to farm owner and
trainer.
Although Laura has worked with and
trained a number of different breeds
and disciplines, her favorite has
always been the Thoroughbred, and
she most enjoys eventing. Sorrows
End Farm is her dream of helping
Thoroughbreds off-the-track find
new homes and careers.
Whenever possible, Laura still
participates in riding clinics with
several Olympic level riders, and has
even been seen in the show ring
from time to time.

Horse Training:
We offer professional horse training, provided by a seasoned horsewoman (see inset, left) with over 30-years'
experience with horses. We specialize in starting young horses, developing green horses, working with difficult horses
or just schooling horses that just need a 'tune up.' Sorrows End focuses on developing respect and obedience in
horses while working with each horse's individual needs and abilities. We can help you work with your horse to help you
become a better team, or we can train, market and sell your horse for you. Our training board options range from 1 to 4
sessions per week.
