Young Horse Starting & Horse Education

Give your horse the best start in life - start their education with trust and understanding, under the guidance of Mark Langley.
Horses can be started under saddle or educated further.

"We would like to express our appreciation to you on the professional and capable
way you started our two young horses and brought them to where we were able to
continue with their education. We could not be happier with how they have
turned out."

Your part to play...

Once Mark has finished, he would ideally like to work with the horse and rider to make sure that you are both comfortable. This is included in the price.

If you have any questions or would like to talk to Mark about your horse, please contact us.

Mark is usually fully booked months in advance for horse starting.
To avoid disappointment, don't leave it to the last minute
to book your horse in!

Open Pasture
Each horse that is trained here is ridden out on the property,
gaining education from our stock, unusual encounters like startled wallabies,
and traveling our varied terrain.
With rolling grazing country, rugged forested mountain terrain and three rivers,
the property provides a great environment for the education of horses.

Time: It takes on average three weeks to start and educate your horse.

Program: Programs are tailored according to their individual needs. Mark will not religiously jump on a horse after 2 days - he will wait until he thinks he has the horses trust and understanding. Some horses take longer than others. We would rather take the time to build a firmer foundation than rush a horse through. Your horses progress and potential will be discussed with you during this time.

Limited Starts: We take a maximum of 5 horses to be started simultaneously helping to give
your horse the quality time it deserves.

End result: All horses will be worked until they are mouthed, can turn and flex and are able to be ridden in all gaits. They will be trained to be able to take a stock whip off their back and will be used to general farm machinery and dogs.


If you are unable to give your horse all the work, basic training or fitness it needs, we offer a riding service which focusses on basic education, softness and wet saddle blankets.

Charged per ride or on a weekly basis.

Our Guarantee

If your horse, after being with us, behaves unsafely we will continue to work with your horse for no extra cost. You must have come and watched Mark demonstrate your horses ability before it left our care and you must contact us within four weeks of having the horse returned.
