The Victory Lab's Afterschool MTB Class: THURSDAYS - Kids ages 4-7

This THURSDAY weekly class is for kids aged 4-7 who are beginner and riders. Groups are kept small for more one-one-one tuition. We only accept pedal bikes, no balance bikes or training wheels. We welcome kids transitioning to a pedal bike and need that little bit of extra help to master it. Each session will have at least two instructors.

The session will involve:

• core foundation skills (body position, coordination, where to look, etc)

• core body positioning

• balance

• steering

• proper braking

• using gears (if the bike has them)

• riding on and off road

• trail riding

• bike safety (on and off road)

• riding etiquette

• having fun and a chance to meet others

The term is for 8-weeks and during the NSW school term. Additional weeks are left open for potential made-up sessions due to inclement weather.

Location is Cringila Hills MTB Park in Wollongong. Cringila is the perfect venue to learn new skills, improve existing skills, and really practice what you've learned. Everything is close which maximises your practice, instead of wasting time pushing up long tracks. Cringila has a pump track which is perfect for working on body position, balance, pedalling, and looking where you want to go. 2km single track loop with tight switchbacks - perfect for cornering, gear selection, braking, etc. It's also loads of fun and an opportunity to meet others!
