What do I need to wear/bring to class?

Vaulters should wear the following to class:
  • Vaulting shoes for vaulting (The vaulter may wear water shoes, ballet, tennis, or other soft shoes for the first few ​classes)
  • ​Tennis shoes for tacking and untacking the horse
  • Form-fitting t-shirt and leggings or sweat pants.  Leotards are also encouraged.
  • Hair should be pulled away from the face.  Long hair should be in a ponytail or bun​.

Vaulting Safety

Beginning vaulters first learn general and horse safety, and quickly progress to practicing their moves on a vaulting barrel, a stationary padded, metal drum, attached to legs, with a vaulting surcingle (handles) attached. Once vaulters are comfortable with their moves on a barrel, they progress to a horse moving at a walk, oftentimes with a spotter right beside them. As vaulters progress up the ranks, the vaulting gaits change from a walk to a trot, and at the highest level vaulters perform on, and in concert with, a cantering horse.
