Kirsty McWilliam the founder started her equestrian career at the age of ten, when she was introduced to the sport of Equestrian Vaulting (gymnastics on horseback), she was selected for the Scottish team, competing regularly throughout Europe and was part of the first British vaulting team to win at an international competition.

The Riders of the Storm horses.

The other half of the Riders of the Storm equestrian stunt and show team are 6 highly talented and individual horses.  Just read Kirsty's descriptions of each horse to start to get a feel for how well she knows and loves each horse:-

"Brego is an extremely handsome with a loving heart and calm nature."

"Shamus is our gentle giant, he works really with all the young vaulters".

"Sunny is the baby of the team, he came to us as an unbroken 3 year old companion, he has a very strong loveable character and thinks he's more human than horse."

"Rocky is the old man of the team he can turn his hoof to everything; he loves to perform and hates being left out."

"George - Every team has to have a cheeky little pony and George is ours. He maybe small but he has lots of attitude!"

"Drino is our new Spanish boy, he's settling in nicely in his new home and doesn't even mind the Scottish weather, he can even sit down beside me!"
