Holiday sessions for all kids who want to learn to shred!

There are three levels for the coaching sessions for primary school aged children (5-11) – Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced, so make sure you book onto the right one:-

Beginners (5-8) – wanting to learn and develop basic mountain bike skills

We do accept beginners to off road cycling, however your child should be able to already pedal in a straight line, use their brakes and have an understand on how to turn their bike. These skills should have been observed by the child’s guardian before booking this session. Our British Cycling Coaches have the technical knowledge to develop these skills in an off road environment. If you are unsure which group your child should join, please contact us for guidance. Contact

Intermediate (7-10) – be comfortable on the blue graded mountain bike trails and happy to give red trails a go

Intermediate riders should be able to ride off road features such as Blue graded trails, pump tracks and off road skill areas. The rider should be able to ride with their bums off the seat, break on uneven ground and should have a good understanding that gears are able to help with climbing and descending. If you are unsure which group your child should join, please contact us for guidance. Contact

Advanced (9-12) :

Advanced riders should be confident on red graded trails, happy with progressive weight shift and starting to get wheels off the ground. Starting to consider drop-offs and jumps. If you are unsure which group your child should join, please contact us for guidance. Contact

Beginner (aged 5 – 8) 10.00-12.00pm

Intermediate (aged 7 – 10) 1.00-3.00pm
