Fear of letting of brakes, going over obstacles and just trusting the bike. Learn to have more fun, less fear.
Beginner Fundamentals (Norm Douglas) (6 places)A beginner course that will give you the knowledge, the tools and know how to trust your bike, enjoy the trails and get off the brakes a little more.

Lunch Break 11:45 – 12:45 – BBQ Supplied

Friday 1pm – 4pm Women’s “Next Level” Booster. If you have done the morning course, this is a great extension to do in the afternoon. However, not essential. This course is great for those who are struggling to move forward with their skills and have some fears that have started to creep in, stopping you from reaching your
potential and of course having heaps more fun!
Norm’s Masterclass. Speed for free, vision, position, momentum, technique…really go for it this afternoon with some high vibe energy – aim to make you smoother faster for less effort, less falls, more fun, more energy to ride longer and of course with style and finesse!
Saturday 27th 9am – 11:30am Intermediate+ Class with Jess and Norm. (12 places)
We love teaching together and really working the group to get the most out of you. Let us show you some secrets of really fast, smooth and effortless riding to give you the confidence to change your riding from this day forward.Group lunch afterwards

$65 a session. You can book more than one if you like!

Book now on the MTBSkills Site!

On the Sunday there will be a DORC race event where you’ll get to meet and ride with Jess and Norm Douglas.
