Spring Training going well!

Pegasus is currently practicing hard for their first competition of the season on the 20th March. They are all working on their individuals, pairs and fun walk team with a themes for the competition.

Equestrian Vaulting is a rapidly growing sport which can be best described as gymnastics on a moving horse. The horse is controlled by a lunger and moves in a 15 metre circle as the vaulters perform gymnastic movements holding on to two handles on the back of the horse. We can have up to three vaulters on the horse at one time.

The Pegasus Vaulting Group
Pegasus Vaulting Group is based in Killiecrankie, near Pitlochry and is totally separate from Amanda and Kirsty’s fitness and therapy business. The connection is that Kirsty was a member of the British junior team up until December 2005, Then she moved on to work for one of the best horse stunt teams in Europe, developing her skills, taking part and helping backstage with live shows all around the country doing Vaulting, Tricking riding, Jousting, Chariot racing and Wild West shows. Now she brings all her vaulting experience to Pegasus vaulting group by encouraging others to enjoy this sport.

Training is on a Tuesday evening. Vaulters of all ages from 4 to 44, at all different levels from beginners up to advanced. If this sounds like fun - it is great fun so why not come and give it a try!!

Pegasus Vaulting Group is doing lots of demonstrations and shows this year stay tuned to find out where!!

We also do private vaulting lessons, corporate events and team building days.

Trick Riding
Trick riding is not for the faint hearted!! Trick riding is like vaulting but is done on a straight line at a gallop, there is no lunger, so you need to be in control of the horse while carrying out your trick.
