Gymkhana

---

Gymkhana is an equestrian event consisting of speed pattern racing and timed games for riders on horses.  Gymhkana classes are usually a collection of timed speed events such as; barrel racing, pole bending, keyhole race, keg race, flag racing, a hybrid pattern like mountain cow horse, and stake race.

Most of these events are designed to display precise, controlled actions and tight teamwork between horse and rider at speed, and demonstrate many skills such as flying lead changes, sliding stops and more.

The Western Saddle Club offers classes for all ages and abilities of people, allowing riders to compete at the speed level at which they are most capable and comfortable.
