Hands down the best experience Ive had in north Florida at anything horse related. ALL of my horses have been to Analese for training. We have blue ribbons and trophies to show for it. She had Bravo 30 days, went to one show and got western High Point. And the day before was showing in Western dressage! Vegas was a playful free spirited kite and she took him to an in hand show and he was a complete angel and brought home the ribbons! Analese, the owner, truly cares about the horses, all of them. She has one of my horses because I knew Id never find a better home for her, and shes has taken her so much further than I could have imagined. Ive never met a mean person while at Equistarre. Everyone there is super helpful and will help you anyway they can. If youre serious about wanting a better relationship with your horse, or wanting a fun place to take lessons, or wanting a meticulously maintained and well run place to board your horse, call her.

This is honestly the best riding place Iv heard and been to. The horses are so sweet and everything is so well organized. Analese is so patient with the kids and I feel peace and freedom every time I go there. I definitely recommend riding here :).

Great day for the Halloween costume contest

I have currently been riding at equistarre for 5 years now and my riding abilities have grown so much! When I came I was very nervous to do things and I would say no to every opportunity I had to get better but analese convincing me to do new things has really boosted my confidence and I am never really nervous anymore I just do it because I have learned that when I do new things and try harder things I get better and my riding improves. Analese is also really kind but she is also very particular about how her horses get treated and cared for which is one of the many things I love about her. I highly recommend equistarre for people of all riding levels.

Equistarre is the best experience of my life. The people and animals are all so friendly and sweet and when riding if you give your 100% best, they will give you theirs. Not only am I on my way to becoming a better rider, but im also learning what it means to be around horses and all the possibilities that are opening up.

I am so lucky to have found this barn. Equistarre Horsemanship is the perfect place for my mare. All of the horses are happy, healthy, and individually cared for. My mares notoriously terrible TB hooves have looked the best in my 15 years of owning her than they ever have in her life. All the horses are dappled with good weight and Analese always carefully manages their diet. Equistarre also has something for everyone at her barn... Stadium jumps, obstacles, trails, cross country jumps, and a big dirt arena marked with dressage letters and barrels to run around. She hosts shows and a series of natural horsemanship clinics that Im really excited to attend. What really impressed me though is the friendly, laid-back atmosphere at the barn. This is the first barn Ive boarded at that had *absolutely NO drama.* Everyone here is friends with each other and always supports each others accomplishments both at the stable and in our non-horsey lives.

I came to Analese after having not ridden in many years and having a hip replacement to boot. I wanted to refresh my dressage skills but was not looking to get back into competition, and also do not really want to own another horse. I just needed to be around them and to refresh the dressage skills that I though I had lost. Analese brings out the best in me. She is patient, well educated in all things horse and has boosted my confidence and skills tremendously. No matter the discipline you wish to ride, I believe you could find horsey self at Equistarre. Thanks, Analese, for a wonderful few months. I look forward to our next lesson!

In my 11 years of riding horses, this has been my best riding experience by far! Ive learned and progressed so much in just a year of taking lessons here. Equistarre teaches you so much more than just riding. If youre looking for an place that will teach you about everything that goes along with riding and taking care of horses, then this is the place for you. Analese cares so much about her horses, and it really shows in her quality of work. Equistarre has the friendliest, quietest, and most well kept horses I have ever met, and Analese is pretty great too!

I did lessons at equistarre for a few weeks last summer, and it was probably one of the most negative experiences I have had with horseback riding. She had me ride a difficult horse who would crow hop all the time and who I could not get to turn! I spent the whole first lesson trying to get him to just walk around some barrels. The problem persisted and eventually the trainer Analese decided to blame me for it and told me I was a complete waste of time and money! Im by no means an advanced rider but to me that seemed uncalled for. Everyone makes mistakes and there is no need to be rude about it, especially when riding a difficult horse. I also thought she was kind of harsh with her horses, hitting them and telling me to kick the crap out of the horse! Anyways, I would not recommend Equistarre to anyone looking for good riding lessons. Ive always loved horses but after going to Equistarre I felt very discouraged.

My 5 year-old daughter has been taking lessons at Equistarre with Analese for about a year now. She has learned confidence, patience, and responsibility while working with Analese and her horses. Analese always takes the time to explain each step of riding and horse care to my daughter. The horses at Equistarre are very well mannered and behaved and Analese takes amazing care of them. Taking lessons at Equestarre has fostered my daughters love of horses and given her a very positive experience. I highly recommend lessons with Analese at Equistarre for anyone who has a love of horses and wants an amazing experience.

Its the best place and there are really nice people and analese the owner of equistarre horsmanship is soooooo nice love it there. and if anyone needs help riding i would suggest coming to equistarre horsemanship.
