Interactive Vaulting is an activity in which the participants perform movements on and around the horse. These movements can be very simple such as sitting without holding onto the surcingle or a more elaborate vaulting position move such as kneeling or standing on the horse. It all depends on the individual needs of the vaulter.

Interactive Vaulting fosters teamwork, teaches respect for the horse, fosters independence, builds confidence, encourages social interaction, offers individualized instruction while mounted, and it introduces all gaits in a short period of time.

Professional Association of Therapeutic Horsemanship International (PATH Intl.) offers an instructor certification in the specialty area of Interactive Vaulting. The program includes a three-day interactive vaulting workshop plus a two-day Interactive Vaulting certification. Learn more.
