Instruction and training is based on the forward system of hunter seat equitation, infused with the basic principles of dressage, to produce horses and riders that are both safe and competitive on today's show circuit.  Foxtail Farm students have successfully competed at all levels and have won many local and rated championships in both the Hunter and Equitation rings.  Dana has also produced several quality hunters including Heaven Sent (now Mr. Famous) 4th in the nation USEF Small Green Pony Hunter and Meadow Fox Cadbury USEF Zone 3 Champion Children's Pony Hunter. We are members of the USEF, USHJA, VHSA, and IEA.
