Philadelphia Urban Riding Academy

Philadelphia Urban Riding Academy (PURA) is dedicated to preserving the legacy and culture of urban horsemen and women in Philadelphia, particularly the riders of Fletcher Street Stable, as highlighted in Netflix's "Concrete Cowboy." Founded by the late Eric Miller, PURA offers various programs, including riding lessons, horsemanship clubs, and the Junior Concrete Cowboys and Cowgirls initiative, creating a safe space for students to learn about horse care and horsemanship.

With a mission to foster positive experiences and opportunities for youth, PURA also hosts special events such as birthday parties and block parties, bringing the joy of horses to the community. The organization is actively involved in giving back to Philadelphia, with a commitment to cultivating an appreciation for equestrian activities among young people who may not gravitate toward traditional sports.
