Introducing Sessions

Starting September 1st 2025, RCRA will be implementing 3 month seasonal sessions per industry standard. Sessions will run as follows:
​
Fall September - November
Winter December - February
Spring March - May
Summer June - August ​
​
Riders and parents must commit to their weekly lessons throughout these sessions, with one make-up issued per month (with 24 hour notice of cancellation). Any make-ups not rescheduled will be forfeited.
Lesson Sessions
At Royal Canadian Riding Academy we encourage riders to take an active and committed role in their riding experience. Each session runs for three months and riders will be committed to their weekly lesson spot for the three month period they have registered for. Across each session, riding groups will progress together, set goals and support each other in achieving those goals.
​
Riders are permitted one cancellation per month, to be made up within two weeks provided the cancellation is made in writing via email to info@rcra.ca with at least 24 hours notice. Cancellations that do not have a scheduled make up are forfeited after the two week period. Makeup lessons can be taken any day of the week, subject to available groups.
​
Lesson packages are available to be purchased by monthly package payments and three month full session packages for a larger discount. Both payment options are committed to the three month session.
