An equestrian sport that is growing in popularity, Vaulting combines dance and gymnastics performed on the back of a moving horse. The activity promotes balance, confidence and a oneness with the horse in a safe, supportive environment. No previous riding or equestrian vaulting experience is necessary. Beginners welcome!
