Spot on farm
Welcome to Spot On Farm—where passion, experience, and a lifelong love for horses come together to create a welcoming space for riders of all levels.
Who We Are
I’m Brittanie, the owner and head trainer here at Spot On Farm. My journey with horses began when I was three years old, and I saved up to buy my first horse Dakota at the age of twelve. From that moment on, I knew this was my path. I’ve dedicated my life to equestrian sport, and today, I’m proud to say that dream has grown into a beautiful private boutique farm my husband and I call home.
At Spot On Farm, we specialize in riding lessons with a strong emphasis on eventing; which combines the skills of dressage, cross-country, and show jumping. I bring a wealth of experience to the ring, with an extensive show record in Hunter/Jumper competitions and a particular expertise in eventing. I’m currently pursuing my bronze medal in dressage and qualifying for the American Eventing Championships on our horses that I’ve built from the ground up.
Our Horses
We currently have nine horses on the property, each with their own specialty. From seasoned show horses to sweet beginner ponies, we offer something for every rider. We focus on colorful, spotted sport horses—like Pongo, our striking leopard Appaloosa Sport-horse, Boots, our versatile Quarter Horse, Jip, a talented imported Belgian Warmblood, Gixx a fancy moving Hanoverian, or Glimmer, our beautiful Palomino Warmblood mare that is as sweet as pie. Our horses are not just beautiful; they’re well-trained, kind, and safe for all experience levels.
Positivity in Training
My goal as a trainer is to create a positive, encouraging environment where riders can develop their skills with a strong foundation. I believe in celebrating the small victories and building confidence in every lesson. Watching my students progress is one of my greatest joys, and I’m excited to continue growing Spot On Farm into a place where riders of all levels can thrive.
Whether you’re looking to begin your riding journey, refine your skills, or compete at a higher level, Spot On Farm is here to help you achieve your goals. We are growing every day, and I couldn’t be more excited to share this journey with you.
Meet Brittanie
I’m a passionate and well-traveled equestrian with years of hands-on experience—not only teaching over 300 students, but also training young horses, developing upper-level prospects, and riding under world-class riders. My background spans disciplines from eventing to show jumping and I’ve proudly coached students who’ve gone on to win both local and national championships.
• 2008–2010: I started my business at just 16 years old, teaching Pony Club lessons and training horses. I graduated high school early to pursue competitions full-time and competed with Wellington Show Stables, where I earned several junior national championships—including a Zone 4 Champion title with my self-trained mount, Rio’s Dakota Sunrise.
• 2010–2015: I became the head working student for Helen Varble at Wellington Show Stables, competing at Palm Beach International Equestrian Center nearly every weekend. My role evolved into Barn Manager, overseeing lesson programs, sale horses, and day-to-day operations.
• 2015–2020: I opened my own facility on an 80-acre farm and quickly built a thriving program with 50+ students, a competitive show team, and seasonal camps. In 2017, I purchased my own private farm and trained/sold over 50 horses.
• 2020–2023: I moved to Mill Spring, NC to relocated my program near the Tryon International Equestrian Center with a special focus on sale horses.
• 2023–Current: I relocated to the southern Charlotte area near Waxhaw with my husband and started my dream. Spot on Farm was created where I am now cultivating and pouring my passion into the sport I love. I love watching the equestrian sport grow and I’m dedicated to aiding in that success by helping riders excel in the sport. I am passionate about lessons, training, sales, rehab, and much more!
