MEET THE TEAM
THE TRAINERS
Megan grew up as a hunter/jumper rider in Kentucky before moving to the St. Louis area in 2015 and switching her focus to jumpers and dressage. It was after she moved that she learned about the European riding system and became hooked on this different approach. Megan also applies her love for psychology into daily training. Understanding that in order to create and maintain a happy and willing equine athlete, we must first work with their instinctual inclinations and thought processes. Megan uses this approach along with dressage to create a strong foundation for riders and horses of both hunter and jumper disciplines.

Cara grew up on a dairy farm in upstate New York where she spent her childhood with draft horses and cattle on her family’s farm. She learned horsemanship at a hunter barn, where she received a well rounded education in the training and care of both horse and rider. She has been teaching for nine years and joined Silver Fox’s team at the beginning of 2025. Cara prioritizes that her students have a strong understanding of the horse and the foundational skills they need to be successful riders as they prepare for the show ring.
