Traditional equestrian games in Georgia (Tskhenburti, Isindi, Kabakhi, Marula)


Language:

Georgia’s traditional equestrian games take place outdoors, on grass-covered fields. Two teams of six players dressed in traditional clothes called Akhalukhi compete in a series of tasks . Transmitted through formal training and informal observation and participation, the games are widespread in Georgia and typically take place during secular and religious holidays. They are believed to strengthen intergenerational relationships, support healthy lifestyles, promote youth integration and socialization, and deepen relations between villages and different ethnic and religious communities.
