Your Instructor Krista Mack
For those not familiar, Vaulting is a unique sport combining Gymnastics and Horseback Riding and is often referred to as Gymnastics or Dance on Horseback. As a child, Jessica vaulted with Sundance Vaulters and David Long at Sommer's Field in Woodside. Our Vaulting Instructor Krista Poppenberg Mack started vaulting at a very young age and competed on the A Team as a flyer and as an individual reached the Bronze Level.
Currently an advanced coach with Woodside Vaulters, Krista will be introducing you to the world of vaulting. Her 2009 B Team won the National Championships! Krista not only teaches the kids, but has trained many horses for vaulting as well. She trained Lorino to AVA's 2006 Horse of the Year Award, and Giovanni she trained to AVA's 2007 & 2008 Horse of the Year Award. In 2010, for the first time ever, USEF recognized Vaulting Horses and awarded Giovanni Horse of the Year. As you might imagine, Krista was quite proud of the horses she trained!
