To truly
know the horse and communicate with it you must be able to understand
how and what it thinks…we must learn to speak horse.
At Morning Star Stable our Custom Training Program looks at each horses
individual personality and designs a training program that is right for them.
Our goal is to train your horse to be a confident, well-mannered
partner that is able to perform, as you desire.
Each horse and rider team is different and we cater to the needs of the
team. Sometimes the horse needs most of the work, other times the rider
needs to improve their skills and learn how to effectively communicate
to their partner. Sometimes the team needs to be split up, the horse
working with a more advanced rider and the rider working on a more
advanced horse to both improve their confidence, balance, and proper use of aids.
Start your horse the right way or fix the problem horse with the help of loving,
experienced horse professionals. We encourage you to audit our training sessions
and to schedule additional lessons with your horse, in training.

| The After School
Program was formally known as "Junior Equestrians." This program includes 2 multi-group riding lessons
per week, supervised practice riding time, how to courses in: feeding, grooming,
tacking up, horse care and stable management. The ASP was designed to keep those
serious young equestrians riding on a regular basis through the busy school
year. The group lessons continue to give your child hands on instruction where
they can develop their skills and continue advancing as a rider. The practice
ride time allows for your child to become an independent rider where they can
use the knowledge they've learned in lessons and apply it in a variety of riding
situations such as: trail riding, riding in open fields, riding on different
terrain in different weather and footing conditions, and riding for the mere
pleasure of it without thinking of earning points or qualifying for a show. The
un-mounted how to courses help your child become a good all around horseperson
and prepares them for proper care of a horse if they were to have their own at
home.
Bus drop off if child attends SAD 59. Must coordinate
this with the school.
Ask about our discounted program, "Young Riders",
for young or beginner boarders.

| A discounted,
introductory program for your horse
crazy child! A horsemanship and riding program specifically designed
for those who love horses but have never had the chance to do much, or any
riding. Includes group riding lessons and how to courses in: feeding, grooming, tacking up, horse care
and stable management when the weather keeps us in the barn.
MorningStar Stable is conveniently located off rt. 148
in Madison, less than 5 miles from town, on Old County Rd. We have bred and
trained horses here for the past 21 years as well as given lessons and run
summer camps. This is our 1st year offering The Saddle Club, and our hope is
that young horse enthusiasts will see their dreams come true as they are able to
learn to ride and care for these magnificent animals, at an affordable cost. Keep
your child happy and active while he / she learns valuable life lessons in
responsibility and team work.
Available for ages 5 - 12. Saturday Saddle Club is held
rain or shine and NO make up days are offered for days missed during the
session. Each session must be paid in full at the beginning of the session.
Riding helmets will be provided. Please have your child wear long pants.
Appropriate footwear would be a casual boot with rubber soles and a small heel
but hiking boots or sneakers will be acceptable for this introductory program.

Experience the benefits of owning your own horse without the expense of buying one!
Leasing a horse means
that it's not necessary to buy a horse, you do not have responsibility for the full
care of a horse, and best of all you do not need to buy all the necessary
equipment for a horse. A lease offers a great opportunity to decide if owning a
horse is for you and also allows a rider the opportunity to advance and explore
the different styles of riding before purchasing a horse to meet the riders level
and goals. It also allows more time for practice which results in trail riding,
showing, and off farm rides! Leasing is an excellent way to form a bond between a horse and rider.

MorningStar
Stable is a small family run stable. Our mission is to provide a safe,
family, friendly atmosphere where children and youth can can be kept happy
and healthy, as opposed to walking the streets and / or being bored. Our
young people are our future and we want to be part of mentoring the next
generation to dream big dreams, and to have the skills necessary to
accomplish those dreams! The hard work, responsibility, confidence, and joy
that flourish when working with these spectacular animals are only a few of
the important life skills that students at MorningStar Stable will develop.
We know that times are tough and not all those horse crazy kids out there
can afford to have the wonderful experience of working with and riding
horses. With this reality in mind we have developed our bartering program.
There are many hours of labor that go into keeping this facility up and
running, as well as a never ending, "to do" list that grows longer as we
seek to expand to be able to reach more people. If you are a parent that
wants their young person to have an opportunity to experience these
wonderful animals, while being kept busy and developing important life
skills or if you want to sponsor a young person but finances are getting in
your way you might be able to help us. If you have materials and / or
equipment available or skills in carpentry, wood working, welding, large
equipment repair, logging, house cleaning, landscaping, etc., or are hard
working and willing to paint, repair fences, mow lawns, put up hay, shovel
shavings, etc. contact us and we can talk.
*** If you are involved in a bartering program no other discounts offered by MorningStar Stable will apply.
NEEDED ITEMS:
Gravel. Sand. Pressure Treated Lumber.
EQUIPMENT NEEDED:
Manure Spreader. Arena Rake for 4-wheeler or small Kubota
tractor.
