Big Bear therapeutic Riding Lessons
EQUU8 Horsemanship and therapeutic riding
UPDATE: We hope to offer programming in Big Bear again in the future. Unfortunately, due to COVID closures, we have not been able to find additional instructors to re-open our Big Bear program. Please check back in the future. If you are a PATH certified instructor and are interested in working in Big Bear, please reach out to EQUU8.
EQUU8 Big Bear is home to semi-private therapeutic riding lessons, horsemanship lessons, and a "Horses For Heroes" program for our military and veterans. In the summer 2017, we moved our programming to a 100% donated equestrian center at Bear Valley Farms. EQUU8 receives a portion of the proceeds of all equine-related farm events.
With a beautiful backdrop and stunning views of Sugarloaf Mountain and Onyx Summit, our Big Bear location is ideal for summer programming.
While riders often start on lead (with sidewalkers for safety), EQUU8 focuses on progressive lessons that promote independence and enhancing each individual's abilities.
