The Bell Canyon Riding Academy (BCRA) at the newly refurbished Bell Canyon Equestrian Center (BCEC) can teach anyone, from first-time riders to experienced riders ready to get back in the saddle. Their goal is to create a fun, educational environment where the correct principles are taught from the beginning and where safety is a top priority. The BCRA program is designed to build a solid foundation from the ground up, beginning with private lessons to ensure all students have a common baseline of strength and skill level before moving into semi-private or group options. In addition to learning riding techniques, students also learn the fundamentals of horse care, riding equipment, and equine behavior.

The BCEC’s serene and picturesque setting also limits distractions—students unplug from the world and concentrate on learning to ride and care for the horses.
