2010 AVA Annual MeetingPenny Maydak

Plans for our AVA Annual Meeting/Convention to be held in the beautiful Pacific Northwest – Portland, Oregon on March 4-7 are underway. Meetings will be held at the Monarch Hotel and Conference Center (www.monarchhotel.cc). It is located on the light rail line to downtown Portland and has shuttle service from the airport. Room rates (plus tax) are: $95 for a single and double, $105 for a triple, $115 for a quad. Room rates include wi-fi. The Clackmas Town Center, one of the region’s largest malls (tax free shopping!) is across the street and there are ap-proximately 20 restaurants close by. Educational events include: • Lectures and clinics on training the vaulting horse (ground

work, longeing, riding bio-mechanics) by co-founder of the AVA, J. Ashton Moore (FEI O) Vaulting and Dressage Judge.

• Contemporary dance workshops by Rumpus Room Dance artistic Directors, Rachel Tess and Stephan Laks. Gradu-ates of the Julliard School in New York, they maintain dance companies in Portland and Europe.

Preliminary plans are to add: • An acro-balance class which will teach vaulters how to use

body mechanics to balance each other in double and triple exercises.

• Cross-training with balance boards and other equipment by Andrea Brown, certified instructor

• Clinics for individuals and small groups on barrels • Open Judges Forum

Put this on your calendar. It will be an exciting start to the most important year in american vaulting – ever!

2009 USEF/AVA National Championships Mary in EuropeMary McCormick

I left the US and, after some delays in Philadelphia, I finally arrived in Germany four hours later than expected. I success-fully retrieved my bag and booked it to the train station. I took five different trains to get to my final destination: Krumke, Germany.

The small village of Krumke is home to 170 people and one gigantic equestrian facility. Every year vaulters from around the world travel to Krumke to compete at their international vaulting event. This year there were approximately 300 people in Krumke for the vaulting event and another 500 spectators were expected over the three day competition. All the local hotels were booked and there were tents and RV’s set up all over the village. I stayed with a local family. Their beautiful three-story home was just steps from the equestrian center – very convenient!

Tjekko, the Danish horse that I competed on, passed the vet inspection on Thursday with no problem and was already in his stall for the night when I arrived. I said my hello’s, got a bite to eat and headed off to sleep. The competition began on Friday with compulsories. I was really happy with my first go. It was a clean and solid round and a great way to start off. The following day, bright and early at 8am, was the first round of freestyle. Tjekko and I were both a little nervous for this one and it showed. We didn’t have any major mistakes but it was a bit rocky throughout the routine and I ended with a really hard landing from my dismount that bruised one of my feet. All things consid-ered (no practice and a new environment), I thought we actually did quite well just to survive the whole ordeal. I also thought that it was a good opportunity to figure out what needed to be done to be better in the second round.

The second round on Sunday was in-deed better. I had a few minor bobbles but felt much more confident and in tune with Tjekko. We finished the competition in 8th place overall against some very tough competition. Go to http://neu09.voltigierportal.de/ergebnisse/index.php?c=563/377 to see overall scores and placings).

After the prize ceremony on Sunday, I left Krumke with Tjekko to make the long drive back to Denmark. We arrived home safely at about 4:30am and I proceded to sleep soundly for the next nine hours.

too cute to resist! Photo: Primo Ponies

In Denmark I have been catching up on sleep, riding some lovely horses and vaulting on a few potential new horses. There are baby rabbits, goats and kittens at the farm here. I will be training almost ev-eryday and am looking forward to having some more practice time on Tjekko before the next competition. I plan to take a train up to Copenhagen to watch the finals at the Danish Vaulting Championships, do a little shopping and hang out with my friends here, so it’s not all hard work.

Oak Hills Vaulters Summer Camp KyLynn James Warren

Oak Hills Vaulters’ first ever Summer Vaulting Camp on June 17-20 was attended by 30 vaulters of all ages and skill levels. Each morning camp began with various horse chores, preparing lunch for the day, taking special notes and instructions, stretching and, of course, a lot of fun and games. Three teams of campers rotated between barrel work, horse time and dance instruction. Compulsories on the horse and barrel were broken down into technical sections. The creativity and choreography of our freestyles were improved, expanded and perfected. Special activities included swimming, volleyball games, playing in the park and fun night games.

Evenings were spent enjoying each other’s company, roasting s’mores around the campfire, snipe hunting and playing hide-‘n-go-seek throughout the stables. Special non-vaulting clinicians were brought in to emphasize the importance of horse care and barn safety. Our last few hours of camp were filled with a “dance-off” performance by each team followed by awards for the winning team. Many friendships were made and strengthened during the days and nights we together.

Our summer vaulting camp was the highlight of the summer for many of our vaulters. We hope to make this into an annual event! A special thanks to all the parents, longeurs, clinicians, and horse owners who made this a week we will all remember.

KyLynn James WarrenAn AVA judge has not been brought

out to Utah for an AVA event since 1996 when Oak Hills first registered as a club with the AVA and hosted a medal test. Judge Kendel Edmunds recently visited the Oak Hills and Technique Vaulters at the Oak Hills Stables owned by MaryAnn Ford in Salem, Utah.

There was a whirlwind of activity as the vaulters performed in a full day of medal testing and a much-appreciated Q & A session with the judge. Two clubs fielded 36 athletes for Silver, Bronze, Trot med-als and Novice pins. Coaches, longeurs, parents and vaulters were all very happy with the pleasant and fun atmosphere Kendel created. All vaulters passed their medals including three Bronze with honors awards, three commended awards and one silver commended award.

Oak Hills hopes to host many more AVA and USEF recognized events in the near future. Putting on a medal test was a great learning experience and practice for the club members to understand how to run a full-scale competition. The Technique club can’t wait to bring Kendel out again for another testing or competition.

Without the AVA grant we re-ceived this opportunity would not have been possible. Many thanks to the AVA Grants Committee chaired by Jan Garrod. Special thanks to Kendel for the help and encouragement and to the AVA for helping clubs learn and grow!

Cami Swan-Bronze Medalist, age 17: I have been vaulting for over eight

years and had never medal tested. When my club decided to host our own medal test, I knew that it was my time to catch up. I was excited to have Kendel Edmunds come to Utah to visit our club, the Oak Hills Vaulters.

I applied for my Bronze and Trot medals and practiced my compulsory and freestyle moves for one month straight. I was more excited than nervous. Even when our canter horse Ferrari’s hocks swelled up the week of the testing, I still felt confident performing on our backup horse, Pedro, who was more pony sized. But after a lot of Sore No More and conditioning, Ferrari’s swelling had gone down by the awaited day.

I believe that I performed as well as I could have and was awarded my Bronze

medal with honors in the morning, fol-lowed by my Trot medal a couple of hours later. Kendel was a great judge who had a lot of insight and vaulting knowledge to offer us.

Brooke Watkins-Trot Medalist and pre-canter Vaulter, age 16:

Dedicated to our vaulting horses Ferrari and Stewart. Thank you guys for always being there for us. We love you! EYES OF ONE

As we run in,step in step together nowI look back on the weekand how I want to make you proudThe tension is rising,as you mount.But once you’re on,you’ll fill the partAs one we move,around and roundThe music flowsthrough us nowAs you move,upon my back,I feel a part of youThe music stops as you dismountand the crowd stand and cheersYou give me a hug,to let me know I did my joband that you’re proud of whom I am todayThen as we run outstep in stepI look back on the week,and how I made you proud

Teri Watkins (Vaulting Mother): This year, since Nationals is located

so far away in Kentucky, our club decided to focus on Medal Testing. Our family is two years new to the world of vaulting so Medal Testing was yet another adventure awaiting our discovery.

Wow! What a positive experience this was for all participating vaulters who walked away with smiling faces clutching their medals and pins. Medal Testing is a great way for vaulters to measure their own skills against a national standard and to receive tangible recognition. It is also a great way for beginners to gain some performance experience in a competition-less environment. Self confidence was built, friendships enjoyed and team spirit increased.

An added bonus was the knowledge and insight we received from the Judge at

Medal Testing Comes to Utah


our Q & A clinic. What is the best way to hold when I mount? What moves are best to incorporate into a Bronze level freestyle? What are the judges looking for as vaulters move up to the different levels? How do I increase my stand score from a 9.0 to a 10.0? Many other questions were addressed and graciously answered by Kendel. Medal Testing added a new dimen-sion to our wonderful world of vaulting!

Jentry Cole -Trot Medalist and pre-canter vaulter, age 10:

I really enjoyed testing for my trot medal and novice canter pin because it is a chance for me to be better. I’m so glad that our horses were good and that everyone performed well and passed. Vaulting is so much fun and I can’t wait to be able to test for my Bronze medal soon and I hope to one day have my gold medal.

mostly cheering silently from the sides as with most of their events. Another club (Technique) was also in attendance. Even they seemed right at home and genuinely seemed to care about the vaulter as well as the quality of work they had so dedicated themselves to achieve. Our judge was unbiased and very focused on fairly giving each individual every chance to succeed. She even offered a short clinic Q & A ses-sion to help vaulters gain even more from their experience.

The spirit of sportsmanship and goodwill was prominent throughout the testing. From the beginning to the pre-sentation of medals, an uplifting feeling was experienced by everyone I spoke to. Furthermore, the professionalism that was evident in the condition of the facilities and in the little details of the program was very inspiring. I was very proud of each of our club members, coaches, and all those that helped put together the event. I am sure this added to my daughter’s sense of pur-pose and pride having attended this medal testing. I know it did mine!

Jessie Ahlborn -Trot Medalist and pre-canter vaulter, age 14:

This was my first time doing medal testing. I wasn’t really sure about what to do or how I would be judged but, in the end, medal testing was a wonderful experience. I learned more about my compulsories and how to do them properly. I had a great time and happy that all my hard work paid off. I wouldn’t be where I am today if it wasn’t for my coach KyLynn Warren, my longeur Venece Reed and Melissa Dunlevy and our wonderful horses Ferrari and Stewart. The judge was also amazing. She answered all of our questions without hesitation and even gave us tips on how to do better. I am so grateful for her and all the time she put into our medal testing.

Pictured are Audrey (8), Abby Grace (10) and Ashton (12) Rawls, three sisters who enrolled in both the AVA’S Learn to Vault Day Camps in the Lex-ington area as part of our Vault Ken-tucky! initiative. The girls are all train-ing to compete at USAG (gymnastics) Level seven this fall, and their coach is Dee Ann Miller at All American Gym-nastics in Lexington, Kentucky. Their mother is Lori Rawls, the executive director of the USEF. “The girls had the time of their lives,” Lori said.

Mary Allison (vaulting mother): The day of AVA medal testing was a

really interesting day for me, the parent of a newer vaulter. Up until June of last year I had heard nothing of the sport.

I’ve seen many displays of the sport since that time and every time it has been a somewhat boisterous event with lots of loud music and really entertaining environment. Medal Test day was indeed entertaining, but in a different sort of way. Every vaulter willing to test was there – all determined to reach their next level of achievement. There were vaulters aged from four all the way to experienced adult. All were completely quiet – reverent even, to allow the judge to assess and the vaulter to concentrate. That was notable, but the spirit of support was most prevalent.

Everyone there was into each per-formance. Parents and family were there,

Alysha WilsonRoot Farm in Verona, New York was

host to vaulters and vaulting enthusiasts from Canada, California and across New York.

An interactive weekend of vaulting and teaching fun began on a beautiful Friday morning, May 16, in a local high school. Kristen Gilot-Dowd, a New York businesswoman, is first and foremost, a mother. In front of over 30 students, faculty and several participants of the symposium, Gilot-Dowd told the story of her son Trent who was diagnosed with autism. A slide-show of photos allowed the audience to put a face to the name and see Trent as her loving little boy – in both the good times and the bad.

Renowned in the vaulting community, Rick and Virginia Hawthorne of Califor-nia’s Valley View Vaulters traveled from California for the fifth consecutive year as the main clinicians for the weekend. Rick filled most of Friday and Saturday with activities enjoyed by everyone. Although the weekend seemed to end too soon, Hawthorne fit many useful lessons into his time and answered questions from all participants.

Two vaulters from Root Farm volun-teered as teaching examples. All sympo-sium participants were given the opportu-nity to spot and learn various techniques for boosting, teaching and getting comfort-able with the vaulters and their individual needs. Jumping, playing and laughing, young vaulters included one another in games and fun barrel routines.

Equestrian entertainer J.D. Winslow of Esperance, New York attended the weekend as a guest performer. With his two immense Brabants, Winslow performed on Saturday evening to close the clinic portion of the weekend. Demonstrating Roman Riding and circus riding, Winslow wowed the crowd and gave details of the history of the Brabants.

A weekend of vaulting, barbecues, games and interacting with other vaulters was well worth the eight-hour drive. From New York to California, adaptive vaulting is beginning to receive more and more recognition as a great asset to handicapped therapy.

Thank you AVA!MacKenzie Waro

As a new club to the AVA, we are especially pleased to be recipients of an AVA Grant. Six Dream Weaver vaulters were given the opportunity to participate in the Root Farm Sympo-sium with clinicians Rick and Virginia Hawthorne.

A jam-packed day started with team building on the ground, and moved to perfecting the compul-sory exercises. Afternoon consisted of learning freestyles. Even though the day was filled with sweat and determination, much laughter was heard. Thank you for making this day possible!

Molly PearsonKenny Geisler has had quite

a year! In between directing a vet hospital and planning an August wedding, he has had time to be-come the men’s National champi-on for the second time in his career (his first National championship was in 2001). 28-year-old Kenny vaults at Mt. Eden in Saratoga, and is engaged to Mt. Eden A-Team vaulter, Kalyn Noah. Their wedding will be right after CVI Kentucky, and right after that is a trip to go skydiving! Here’s a look into the mind of a champion.

Who/what inspires you? What pushes you to be a better vaulter? What drives you to keep competing?

In 2004 I realized I wasn’t born to win the world championships. I just accepted that I’m a good vaulter, but my learning curve had slowed down. Right now, I enjoy where I am, but I am striving to be more flexible, and shooting for consistency. I want to be consistently better. I understand what a ten is in every compulsory, and can do it sometimes. Hopefully, I can make all those times happen in a single set of compulsories.

As far as team goes, team is such a different environment. If I end up on a team for 2010, it will change my outlook and training level. Your actions affect the team and their actions affect you. I look at it this way, as silly as it might sound. I want to be Optimus Prime: highly respected, core of the team. They can function without him, but he helps bring victory to every situation. (And if you haven’t seen it, I recommend it! One of the best movies made in the past 5 years.) The point is, I’m very strong by myself, but I can be much stronger with a team and I can bring strength to my team. Has it gotten harder as you’ve gotten older? Both physically, and with time management?

This year (2009 season) I’m feeling it a lot. With wedding prep, and work, I’m having a hard time staying in good, fit, skinny condition. At 28, I hit a switch that just makes it hard to maintain my old physique. I’ve been doing more desk type work, which means I’m not as physical anymore, so I have to make a big time point to stay in shape. I feel like I’m the most

flexible I’ve ever been though. So that’s a bonus! What is your biggest strength as a vaulter?

My athleticism, my drive and my desire. What are the biggest sacrifices you’ve made to get to the top?

I don’t think of life in terms of sacrifices. I love vaulting so much I don’t feel like I sacrificed anything. What are your next vaulting goals?

I would like to compete at WEG either team or individual.Is WEG being in the U.S. an

Kenny Geisler - 2009 USEF/AVA Gold Men’s National Champion

What do you think separates the good vaulters from the great vaulters?

Your mind. I am a sharp athlete, but the ones out there winning the competi-tions all the time are the ones with the sharp mind. It’s hard for me to cultivate my mind. I love the athletic side, but one reason I’m not always on top is because I never took to the mental training. But I can see now that there’s a lot of value to it. Also, you must have a lot of heart to go from silver to gold.

inspiration for you to try even harder to qualify?

It’s going to be a really big deal for me. One of the reasons I have been so successful in the U.S. is that I can be very relaxed here. As soon as I’m surrounded by strange coaches, tack, horses and lan-guages, I lose it. But that won’t happen here on American turf. I’m looking forward to a stadium full of Americans cheering for me, not just cheering. Does vaulting hold a special place in your heart because it’s a family sport?

Surprisingly not so much. My sister and I have very different approaches to vaulting and different vaulting styles. We vaulted independently of each other, mostly for geographical reasons. But I couldn’t ask for a more supportive mom. She bought horses, and lunged for me whenever I asked. I remember nights when we’d be out there with under the full moon, Goliath cantering on trust alone at 1 am.

My dad has also been supportive. He’s been to every world championship, and has ridden his bike to every Nationals, no matter how far away it is. It has become sort of our Nationals tradition now. What are your favorite vaulting moves?

My favorite that I do is mount to handstand. But my favorite to watch is the flag. I think it’s a very beautiful exercise. I especially love Kalyn’s flag. I think she has the right conformation to make it look extra pretty.What do you do when you’re not vaulting?

These days I work 45+ hours per week. Kalyn and I try to go to the beach about once a month, go see movies when Kenny performed on Lanson 16 at the

we have time and we love walking our dogs. Where do you work?

I’m the hospital director of Banfield (vet hospitals). I have a good time, help-ing the team fill in holes when necessary. So I manage that one, and they’re talking about giving me a second one to manage. It’s very exciting that they’re putting a lot of faith in me to take two hospitals in of poor shape and pull them out of the straits and into a good place. And I take a lot of pride in it.Any words of wisdom for people trying to balance a vaulting career, and, well, a career?

Be realistic with yourself. Don’t give up being world class, just understand what that means and what you might have to give up for that. It takes lots of planning and organization. Do other daring sports appeal to you?

I’m a crazy snowboarder. I love it, it’s a rush, it feeds my adrenaline. It allows me to really explore my own athleticism in a whole new way. There’s an artistic component to it that I enjoy and I can use a lot of my strengths on the slopes that I grew in vaulting. I also promised Kalyn that we would go skydiving after we got married. Worst habit?

I think I know what my body is do-ing too often, when in reality that’s not the case. I videotape all of my practices because I have such a strong feeling inside of me that what I know exactly what I’m doing. I need to see it to realize I’m wrong. When I can see what I’m doing wrong, I can accept coaching a lot better. Guilty pleasure?

I love food! Not just any food, I love awful food. I love dessert. I’m an ice cream guy all the way: Rocky Road is my favor-ite, but Mint Chip comes in close second. You’re getting married soon! Did you two meet through vaulting?

When my best friend and teammate Todd Griffiths told me he couldn’t be on my team next year (to concentrate on his senior year at vet school), he introduced me to a replacement he had lined up. I invited Kalyn to try out and I was impressed with her right out of the gate. She had an in-nate ability to really make the team come together.

Molly (Jo) Pearson is a recent graduate of Chapman University in Orange, CA. She majored in public relations & advertising, with an emphasis on broadcast journalism. Unable to shake her love for the vaulting world, she came back to the sport this summer to work with the AVA on communications and marketing initiatives to try and spread the magical word of vaulting. She is a former Woodside and Mt. Eden vaulter.

Was it love at first sight? The more commitment and energy she

gave to team, the more attractive she be-came. She kept coming to practice and we kept a professional relationship for about a year. Then things changed, and we grew into a relationship. She helped me find a much more centered universe. We’re op-posites in a lot of areas, but we complement each other very well. Are your kids going to have to compete with Isabelle’s kids to be the best in town?

Oh no contest! Our kids will have 100% vaulting blood! Your philosophy?

I just always try to be nice to everyone. I like to help people find the silver lining to their problems. I very much want to help people achieve what they want to achieve. I will match any vaulter’s effort level. If you

Kenny Geisler - 2009 USEF/AVA Gold Men’s National Championcome up to me and say you want to fight to the top and practice seven days a week to go for the gold, I will be in the ring 7 days a week, right there beside you. What’s the biggest lesson you’ve learned vaulting?

Any parallels between vaulting and life lessons? Oh yes! A lesson I learned from (former coach) Isabelle Parker is knowing when to admit when I’m wrong and when I’ve made a mistake. I also like to live by a song lyric I heard about five years ago. And that’s, “if my children were to make the same decisions I’m making right now, would I be proud of them?” I like to lead my life and make all my decisions by that mantra.Let’s hope that in the years to come, Kenny can keep living by his mantra, and inspiring any vaulter who comes his way. Congratulation, Kenny!

Molly PearsonWoodsider Alicen (Ali) Divita has

been a vaulter since she could walk. But a different kind of vaulter. She got her start in gymnastics on the ground, not on a horse. But she has found a way to make a seam-less transition from one vault to the other. And all of her hard work has paid off in a big way this year.

Ali believes most that it was her at-titude that got her to where she is today. She says, “You have to be willing to push yourself. You have to practice every day the way you want to compete and hold yourself to very high standards. Don’t give up on a move just because it’s hard; practice it over and over again until you get it right.” It’s that kind of stick-to-itiveness that stuck her in first place at this year’s National championships.

It hasn’t always been an easy ride. Like any vaulter, she has had to overcome several disappointments over the years (broken arms, broken horses, broken planes). But again, it’s her attitude that has helped her overcome all her obstacles.

“The challenges inspire me to be a better vaulter,” she explains “Embrace the ‘down moments.’ You have to realize that no matter how bad of a moment you are in, that, too, is going to change. Just remember your mistakes and learn from them. That’s what makes this journey of life all the more worth living.”

Ali attributes her success to her natural flexibility, her love of performing, and her coach, Isabelle Parker. The marriage of the three, she says, makes for a fun and excit-ing combination.

Around July, she’ll begin picking her music for the next year. When she finds something that just clicks, she can feel it in her bones and knows that’s what she wants to use. She will listen to her music over and over again, to the point where she knows every single beat by memory. Then she and Isabelle begin the choreography process of giving her routine shape, form, soul.

words. “She’s not just a coach. What’s a more personal word than mentor? Second mom?” Ali has faith that Isabelle supports her even when she’s not vaulting, and in any endeavor she finds herself doing in the future.

At some point, Ali would like to take her yoga practice to the next level and get certified to teach. She even has dreams of going to India to study different types of yoga and Eastern medicine, and return to the U.S. to combine Eastern and Western medicine for optimal health for vaulters and athletes.

For the time being, she has enough on her plate. Her training regimen is a grueling one. She wakes up at 4:30 am every day for three-hour crew practices, trains with an Olympic decathlete hopeful, practices hot yoga, runs, lifts weights, dances and still has time to vault three days per week and design her own major at UC Berkeley.

Despite all the time she dedicates to her vaulting career, she doesn’t feel like she has had to make any sacrifices. “I found a way to have fun, but I know when it’s time to hunker down and concentrate,” she says. “I monitor myself more now than Ali demonstrates her signature splits move.

Her favorite vaulting moves are the ones that she’s intrinsically excited about, the ones that make her say, “Isabelle! We have to try this one! This year, it was my back extension roll. I thought, if I can do it on the ground, why can’t I do it on the horse?”

Ali is inspired by her gymnastics background and recent addiction to yoga to invent creative moves that haven’t been seen in the vaulting ring before.

“Next year, it’s gonna be this one move… I start in a lunge, and… Wait! I don’t want to give away all my secrets! You’ll just have to come watch me next year,” she says with a laugh.

She claims her working relationship with coach Isabelle Parker is so good because Isabelle is so positive and caring. “She really devotes her life to making me a vaulter and a better person.” She pauses for a moment to think of the right

when I was in high school, and can decide for myself what’s more worth it. And it’s cool to have vaulting to remind me to care about my body.”

The next challenges she has for her body are to finish out CVI strong, and start training for next year’s World Equestrian Games. “It’s something I’ve been dream-ing about forever,” she gushes about the prospect of competing in the World Games on her home turf. “But I want to make sure that I enjoy the process of training, and not get caught up in fixating on the end result, especially because next year is a big deal. But in life, you’re going to be happiest when you’re focused on some-thing you care about. That’s my goal for next year-- to enjoy every moment of my preparation.”

to have a performance that’s captivating and worth watching; you have to have something special [in order to win].”

Ali says she enjoys being around the international caliber vaulters, and the competition drives her to be a better vaulter herself. When asked if the star vaulters were her role models, she gave a thoughtful pause and replied that, no, it’s not the top vaulters, but her younger sister Tessa who is her real inspiration.

“I love watching her. She’s very coachable, has a great champion attitude and just loves vaulting with all her heart. Last Nationals, I was more excited for her to get her award than I was to receive my own. It’s so cool to have her as my little sister.”

Ali goes on to say how lucky she is to have the whole rest of her family, too. Her Dad has been her silent “Zen supporter,” while her brothers incite competitions over who can get bigger muscles.

And it’s her mom who she almost bows to in gratitude. “She has put so much into this sport for us and I am so lucky that she gets pleasure from doing it as well. It’s cool having my mom as my lunger. We’re

shifting our relationship from girl and mom to being teammates. Oftentimes I find my-self thinking, I am so lucky. Why me?”

That’s when she goes back to her man-tra of enjoying every minute of the ride. She said repeatedly that was the biggest lesson she learned from vaulting, which is totally applicable in the “real world” too.

“I just do it because I love it. Vaulting makes me happy 360 days a year, not the just five I’m competing,” Ali remarks at last, a succinct summing up of the reason she sticks with the sport. Congratulations to you, Ms. National Champ!

She is more focused on being her best than she is on being the best. It’s her personal milestones and accomplishments she’s the most proud of.

She knows she will have to push herself, though. She says the quality of vaulting has increased so much in the past few years, especially when competing against the Europeans. “You can’t just be good anymore,” she explains. “You have

Penny MaydakOn June 12th 68 vaulters, their coach-

es, families and equine friends descended upon Canyonview Equestrian College for the Region III Championships. Located in Silverton, Oregon the facility offered a beautiful setting for two fun-filled days of competition. With camping and bunks onsite, many were able merely roll out of bed and arrive at the show Saturday morning.

Region III ChampionshipsThe staff at Canyonview was won-

derful, helping out and providing us with whatever we needed. The weather cooper-ated, keeping the rain to a minimum during the weekend.

The weekend was packed full of classes and events. Mt. Rainier vaulters successfully tested for trot medals and novice pins. Saturday night many of us gathered for a wonderful dinner to cel-ebrate the 40th Anniversary of the AVA. The evening concluded with a birthday cake. Sunday ran smoothly and wrapped up with an awards ceremony.

After the show our vaulting commu-nity parted ways, some to meet up again at Nationals or various summer events, others saying goodbye until the fall shows start up. Regardless of when our next meeting may be, we all look forward to strong until we meet again.

Extra thanks to Toni Amoroso for judging our championships, Tom Oakes and Susan Caskey for their assistance with the scoring office and all the volunteers that made it possible.

Mt. Rainier Coach, Bonnie Kukki met with her vaulters before the event.

Region IX Championships

Vaulting in Vegas IIConnie Geisler

Yes, ladies, gentlemen and vaulters of all ages – vaulting in Las Vegas is back for a second year.

Our first competition in November of 2008 was a great success. It was held at Horseman’s Park, a fully equipped equestrian center that seems designed to hold great vaulting competitions. The fact that it is just minutes from the Las Vegas Strip doesn’t hurt either.

We had nine vaulting clubs from all over the West come together for this first competition. Needless to say there was no shortage of standing tall stands, flying high scissors or fantastic full flanks. There were also a lot of first time competition jitters from many of the newer vaulters who had never performed or competed in front of a judge.

One of the highlights of the two-day event was the Gambler’s Choice program. Vaulters were paired up with vaulters from other clubs to create a rou-

tine that will be performed and judged on the barrel later in the day.

Mark these dates for Vaulting in Vegas II on Saturday and Sunday, November 7 and 8. AVA competitions will be held on Saturday starting at 1:00 pm and USEF completions will be held on Sunday starting at 9:00 am. On Saturday lunch and dinner will be available for purchase. Yes, dinner. We will be vaulting under the lights on Saturday. On Sunday lunch will be available for purchase.

We are working to make this a premier showcase of vaulting talent and would be very happy to have you and your club join us in November.
