Providing MTB coaching and BMX coaching to groups, clubs or individuals – whether it’s trying to build confidence on the bike, or you are seeking help in a specific area.
MTB Coaching
If you are looking to improve your skills, confidence and enjoyment on the trails then the 1-2-1 or small group sessions are just what you are looking for.
Prior to the sessions we will plan the areas of your riding you want to work on and set a bespoke session plan to address your personal requirements.
With just the two of us or a small group, we will have adequate time for individual feedback and video analysis to address your personal development. From the basics to advanced techniques, I guarantee you will end your session with a better grasp on how to get the most out of your day on your bike!!
You can choose between Hadleigh Park, Thetford Forest, Danbury Common, Twisted Oaks or a venue of your choice. Some parks will have an additional park use fee.
