About the Trainer:
Tami Batts has earned her USDF Bronze, Silver and Gold medals and is an “S” dressage judge. She trains out of her family’s Fellowship Farm in Greensboro, NC, and is dedicated to training and maintaining happy, healthy and successful students, competitors, and equine partners.
Tami has competed in the National Developing Horse Championships, National Intermediaire Championships in Gladstone and, together with Ranko, successfully competed at the Grand Prix level, winning the Region 1 Open Grand Prix Championship in 2012. Tami is currently competing aboard Raquel, her 7-year-old Oldenburg mare, bred from her “horse of a lifetime” stallion, Ranko.
Although Tami enjoys competing, she also enjoys staying at home and working with horses and riders. She offers dressage lessons and training from beginning levels through Grand Prix and hosts a variety of activities for riders of all ages throughout the year. Summer day camps, fall semester group lessons, advanced camps for Junior and Young Riders, Christmas camps, schooling shows and adult Weekend Warrior clinics are all part of the variety of programs offered to riders of varying ages and levels at Fellowship Farm.
As a competitor, trainer, and judge, Tami uses her skills to help her students navigate the ins and outs of horse shows and to compete successfully in the show arena. Tami has proudly sent 10 Young Riders to the North American Young Riders Championship since 1994, and many of her students have earned USDF Bronze, Silver and Gold medals as well as top honors at BLM Championships, GAIG Championship and USDF Horse of the Year Awards.
