S.T.A.R.S. of Horsemanship

"My kids have been riding here with Rose for a few months now. We are amazed at how much we have learned so far and how much more comfortable we are with horses in general. We have gotten to experience many of the horses too so learning their unique temperaments and personalities has taught us a lot. Rose is fantastic and very knowledgeable and great at multi tasking and making sure it is a safe and enriching experience. She has challenged my kids which is great so they can continue to develop their skillset and not become stagnant. I am in a few homeschool groups and recommended STARS all the time! We look forward to our weekly lessons and it is always the highlight of our week. Jaelyn is great as well and such a sweet heart. All of the staff has honestly been great to us and we plan to take lessons here for a long time"

"We had a great birthday party for a 9 year old. Amy was amazing!!! Did amazing job with the kids. Accommodated a 1.5 and 2 year old!! WE HAD A BLAST! Allyson was amazing as well! Very friendly staff!!"

"Riding classes with Amy of S.T.A.R.S. turned my stay in Queen Creek into an amazing experience. I volunteered at a farm down the road and dropped by on a Saturday for orientation, not knowing that I was actually in the wrong spot (first meetings for scheduling take place in the Gilbert location, not in Queen Creek). Amy greeted with me with open arms and we made an appointment for orientation and the first lesson right on spot. I used to do English as a teenager, but had no experience in Western. But even as a beginner, traveler, and non-native speaker, I felt welcomed and at ease right from the start. The way Amy teaches is structured and she is very well able to adapt to all kinds of levels, ages, and characters. Although I was a little rusty, I felt safe at all times. Amy would also allow me to do more advanced exercises like barrel racing, at my pace, without putting pressure on me. She is a great instructor. All the best for you and all the instructors and animals at S.T.A.R.S.!"

"My daughter has been taking lessons for a few months now. I cannot say anything but great things about this place. This is not an aggressive, strict, stressful place and that is what makes it a great fit for us. They take the time to teach kindly yet very responsibly at the same time so the riders are safe. I have no doubts that all of their instructors are amazing…but my daughter has only had one instructor so far, and she is such an AMAZING riding coach. She really knows her stuff about horses and I love that she asks the kids questions to get them thinking about what they are doing and learning. Huge thank you and shout out to AMY! My daughter is learning everything there is to know about horses and riding, including all the things that go into actually taking care of a horse. Thank you S.T.A.R.S of Horsemanship and Amy for a great experience so far!"

"We went from bi-weekly to weekly lessons. We just can't get enough! Ashlynn is amazing with the kids and the horses. My daughter is having the time of her life and gets visibly better and more confident with every lesson. So many opportunities and such a great attitude here!"
