Austin Tri-Star

I am so excited to have found this place. I called all around trying to find my then 6 year old a place to take lessons. Not a lot of places want to do children’s lessons, which surprised me. The place closest to my house was rude, rushed the call, made it like my questions were stupid and literally was twice as expensive as I was hoping. By the time I hung up I wouldn’t have had her do free lessons there because I felt like she talked to me like I was a moron. Another trainer I got a hold of that doesn’t do kid lessons gave me Kathy’s number and highly recommended her. Kathy is super informative and really easy to talk to. I had a bunch of newbie questions and she has never made me feel dumb. The people that board their horses out there are all extremely helpful and even have done demos for my daughter. We’ve (yes I started lessons too hehehe) been taking lesson for about 6 months and feel so welcome and comfortable here. I notice people always saying sweet things about the other peoples horses and there isn’t any of that nasty competition I was expecting. It’s like a small little community of people who like horses, aren’t afraid to get dirty and are down to earth. I’m so happy to have found Kathy and Tristar and can not wait to see where my daughters passion for horses goes.

We love spending time at Austin Tri-​Star! Our daughter has learned so much from Kathy. It’s a great place to board your horse.

Great place to board your horse. Great turnout, owner very knowledgeable about caring for your horse, highly recommend Austin Tri-​Star

My daughter just started taking lessons from Cathy here, and we are so happy! We tried several other lesson places in the area before coming to Cathy, and there is no comparison. The other places were a lot more expensive and the lessons themselves left a lot to be desired.
Cathy is so in tune with what our daughter needs. She’s teaching our daughter how to take care of the horses, as well as how to ride. She’s so patient with our daughter and our daughter leaves each lesson feeling so happy, and so proud of herself. I really like how Cathy runs her lessons. She doesn’t just put our daughter on a horse and tell her to go. She takes the time to show her how to properly mount and dismount, how to hold the reins, how to guide the horse, etc… My daughter is quickly gaining confidence and falling in love with riding. This is one of the best experiences she’s ever had. I would recommend Austin Tri-​Star and Cathy as a teacher to anyone who wants to learn how to ride.
