Horse Training: Star has trained and shown many types and breeds of horses during her career. Among them are: Thoroughbreds, Arabians, Quarter Horses, Warmbloods, Appaloosas, American Saddlebreds and other gaited breeds, Mustangs, and Welsh ponies. She accepts a variety of horses for training.

Star working with a young Andalusian/Arab gelding. Western dressage is just one of several disciplines Star teaches. What makes a good lesson horse? Obedient, easy tempered, with a healthy dose of patience, clear gaits, a reliable “whoa” and self-confidence, are some important qualities .... Notice that it sounds a lot like what we all want in a good riding horse!
