I just want to give a HUGE shout-out to Moonshadow Farms boarding facility here in Norco. This time…read morelast year, we were having weight loss problems at another facility and decided to move our horse. The difference in her coat, weight, and energy level has made me so happy that we moved when we did. Moonshadow has taken such good care of our girl and we are so grateful for them.

Thanks for everything, Moonshadow!! We love it here!

I can't say enough good things about my own experience here, as well as what I've witnessed in the youth who ride and train at the ranch.

I've gained so much from this place. I've seen huge growth in myself, not just in my riding, but in confidence, discipline, and overall mindset.

Ray and Pip…read moreare absolutely amazing instructors who bring a perfect combination of knowledge, patience, and passion to every lesson. My wife, Maggie, and our daughter, Elsa, both take lessons with Ray and absolutely love every minute of it. Since training with him, their confidence has grown tremendously, and their riding skills have improved beyond what we ever expected. Ray has a unique ability to make riders feel comfortable, capable, and motivated while helping them reach their full potential. Ray is an outstanding horseman, talented, knowledgeable, patient, encouraging, professional, and genuinely passionate about teaching. His ability to connect with both horses and riders is remarkable. He builds confidence, develops skills, and makes every lesson both fun and rewarding. Pip is equally wonderful, supportive, caring, knowledgeable, and dedicated to the success of every student. Together, Ray and Pip have created a positive, welcoming environment that feels like family. The care given to the horses, the quality of instruction, and the overall atmosphere at Star Bright Horse Academy are second to none. If I could give more than five stars, I would. In fact, I'd give them 12 stars! I highly recommend Star Bright Riding Academy to anyone looking for exceptional riding instruction and an incredible equestrian experience.

Our lesson was booked for 10 am and she was super excited. We arrived 15 minutes early and watched other kids finish their lessons and no one offered to help or instruct us where to go. Finally a woman asked who we were there for and told her the name and she eventually told us the girl we were booked with wasn't even there that day. After almost 45 minutes of waiting somebody else stepped in and did the lesson for my daughter. Once the lesson began everything was fine but if you don't mind waiting around and no customer service then this is the place for you.
