something to remember during the season of giving! 💫

flashback friday with the best boy!!

one of my favorite things to teach is the process of tacking-up your horse, as well as basic saddle and tack anatomy. while riding is the “fun” part, it’s important for students to understand the work it takes to do so. and although grooming and tacking-up might sound boring, it’s some of the best time and consistency we can bring into the relationship with our horse. i try to audibly describe the process and have mini term quizzes almost every lesson with regular students. 🤎

the most wonderful time of the year is almost here… the national finals rodeo!! 🤠

december 5th through 14th, you can watch on the CowboyChannel and their app, Cowboy Channel+.

for new cowboys and cowgirls, the nfr is 10 rounds over 10 nights of all 7 main rodeo events - ba****ck riding, steer wrestling, team roping, saddle bronc riding, tie-down roping, barrel racing, and bull riding. the top 15 in the world of each event compete for individual-round winnings, 10-round average winnings, and annual world champion titles. it’ll knock your boots off!

howdy, strangers! 🤎

i’ve had a number of former and interested student families reach out about when lessons will resume. i don’t have an exact date, but the answer is very soon!!

along with my move back from northern wisconsin, i have had a schedule filled with weddings, bachelorette parties, travel, and personal matters. starry spur is also getting a brand refresh, which i am in the final stages of.

i anticipate to have my new lesson schedule finalized and open for booking in the middle of november. all updates will be posted here on our page.

if you want to join my email list for extra notification, feel free to fill out the form below. i promise we’ll be back to yeehaw-ing in no time! 🫶🏼

hey there!

the starry spur is taking a summer hiatus from lessons, as i pursue another horse-related opportunity to grow in both knowledge and experience. the lesson schedule will open again in the fall of 2024.

see y’all real soon! 🤠

06/11/2024

well, i guess it’s finally time to announce my summer plans! 🐴🌾

last week was my first full week up in minocqua. i will be living up here through the end of september, working with the herd and leading group trail rides at holiday acres. i already love it and have learned SO much from the owners, trail guides, and horses themselves.

what does this mean for starry spur? this means i’ll be taking a break from giving lessons in lomira, while i grow in experience with different horses and a part of the business that i’m interested in providing one day. the lesson schedule in lomira will open up again on october 1st, 2024!

thank you to all of my lesson families that continue to understand and support my dreams. boogs and i can’t wait to see you in fall! in the meantime, looking forward to a summer filled with horse girl shenanigans. ✨

ok firstly, this is a josie appreciation post. 🥹🫶🏻 whenever this girl and her mom are at the barn, my day is 10x better. boogs and i are obsessed with you!

secondly, hi! talk about an unplanned hiatus from socials lol. 😵‍💫 i figured it’s finally time to catch up! life has done anything but slow down since i last posted, and it’s definitely a little different. most notably, my family shrunk by two. i ended up selling hyde to an amazing lady and better fit for a home. and i had to send my best friend and golden retriever pup, margie, to doggie heaven. thank you to all of the lesson student families that were flexible and understanding throughout marge’s struggles. no longer having hyde and marge around hasn’t been easy, but boogs, lady, and the chickens are still a handful lol. i also experienced some serious health scares myself. BUT!

the starry spur hasn’t slowed down either! truly giddy up vibes going on over here. 🤠 boogs and i are working with 25 to 30 regular students now! we are humbled and grateful. but it’s been a grind lately, amidst springtime events and other exciting opportunities in the works.

i think that’s it from me for now! hope everyone else is staying healthy and happy. more starry spur updates coming soon. 🤎

howdy hey!!

a few lesson students and their families have expressed wanting to see a rodeo or some live barrel racing. i shared these somewhat local events with them and figured i would share them here as well. just in case anyone else was looking or interested! 🤎

bulls, bands, & barrels - coming back to madison (alliant energy center) on february 24th! as the name suggests, this includes bull riding, live bands, and barrel racing. the concert artists are ian munsick and alexandra kay. i went to one last fall in madison, and the bulls and barrels were followed by the concert. they opened up the arena, so you could stay in your seat or rush down and stand in a GA pit if you wanted to.

midwest horse fair rodeo - midwest horse fair in itself is a great event to attend, and they will have a rodeo both nights of that weekend. this rodeo is an actual prca rodeo, with the seven standard rodeo events - ba****ck riding, steer wrestling, team roping, saddle bronc riding, tie-down roping, barrel racing, and bull riding. mhf runs april 19th to 21st in madison (alliant energy center), having a rodeo the night of april 19th and 20th. these tickets go quite fast, but there is still some availability in the 300 level on the 19th.
