Meet Belinda
Situated on 56 acres at the border of Pickering and Whitby, Belle Wood was founded in 2008 by Belinda Logan (née La Belle).
Belinda established Belle Wood with a clear philosophy: to put the horse first while building strong foundations for riders from the very beginning. As a certified Competition Coach, she specializes in developing riders in the hunter, jumper, and equitation disciplines. Her program is driven by a deep commitment to exceptional horsemanship and a strong respect for the sport.
Over the years, Belle Wood has been home to many horses, from valued boarders to those within Belinda’s lesson program. She has guided riders successfully from local schooling shows through to Gold-level competition—and every stage in between.
Belinda is also passionate about creating memorable experiences for her students, including “showcations” to the World Equestrian Center in Ohio and Ocala, Florida.
Belinda and her husband, Patrick, are often joined by their three golden retrievers—Daisy, Duchess, and Duke—who can frequently be found greeting riders and watching lessons as Belinda and Patrick care for the property.
