What is vaulting?

Vaulting is the spectacular sport of gymnastics performed on a moving horse. It is one of the equestrian disciplines recognized by the Fédération Equestre Internationale (FEI) for international competition and the United States Equestrian Federation (USEF) nationally.

Participants are judged on individual compulsory moves and freestyle competition. There are also pair and team events. With a history extending back to Roman cavalry training, vaulting requires the teamwork of the vaulter, horse and lunger. It is one of the few sports worldwide where men and women compete on the same team.

Vaulting is a magnificent sport and a wonderful learning opportunity for all ages from toddlers to adults and those seeking special therapeutic opportunities. With the help of the well-trained and consistent horses, vaulters develop balance, coordination, flexibility, strength, confidence, muscle tone, memory, teamwork, music interpretation, and much more!
