Braking

Take control

These lessons will teach you how to brake with control, ride safer, ride faster, and have more fun!

I’ll show you what it really means to use your brakes properly and efficiently, giving you the confidence you’ve been looking for. No more second-guessing whether you can stop in time—when you know you’re in control and can slow down on demand, your confidence and riding ability will skyrocket.

  • If you're new to mountain biking or still getting comfortable on the trails, we’ll start in a relaxed learning environment with terrain that helps you gain confidence and control.

  • For riders looking to take things further, we’ll explore more varied terrain and introduce new challenges while ensuring you feel comfortable and in control every step of the way.

  • If you're an experienced rider wanting to push your limits, we’ll take on more demanding trails and focus on refining your skills in a dynamic and challenging environment.

No matter your level, I’ll create a session that matches your ability and helps you ride with more confidence, skill, and enjoyment.
