About Arizona Cowboy College

Founded in 1989 by fourth-generation cowboy Lloyd Bridwell, ☀ Arizona Cowboy College ☀ abounds with all the atmosphere one would expect from a real Western ranch, with one very modern distinction: it was the setting for CMT's reality show Cowboy U. The program highlighted the often-rocky journey of city dwellers and a fame-hungry pony who came there to win attempting to adjust to life on the range, all led by senior instructor Rocco Wachman and his teaching staff. 34+ Years in Operation. 70+ Combines Years teaching all things horse.

After years of handling horses and new riders of all ages, Wachman and company were well-prepared to wrangle reality-show contestants, and once the cameras stopped rolling, they went right back to the tough but rewarding business of ranch-running. At Arizona Cowboy College, that includes private and group lessons as well as trail rides through picturesque natural forests, with programs aimed at nurturing ranch hands, serious riders, and more casual horse-lovers alike.

AMAZING! What an incredible experience that I truly will never forget! My 10 year old son and I took a trail ride and then got to love on all the animals on the property. I would absolutely recommend and we will definitely be back! ❤️

Absolutely unforgettable! Emily and Denise went above and beyond to ensure we felt not only comfortable but completely safe throughout. Their knowledge was impressive—they shared a wealth of fascinating information about both the college and the surrounding trail area. We got an incredible glimpse into the ‘college area’ and learned so much about the different horses. Truly an exceptional experience—100% worth it, and without a doubt, we’ll be back!

They gave us the best trail ride experience through the Tonto desert. The staff were wonderful people. The ranch has tons of beautiful animals to admire. Horses are well behaved listening to every signal. I can't wait to ride again. Thank you
