The Trail Academy offers 1:2:1 coaching sessions within the vast trail network of the Surrey Hills and on our own private trails and pump track.

We can tailor a session to the wishes of each individual and do so in a safe and supportive environment. Our coaches are experienced working with beginners new to cycling right up to professional mountain bikers wanting to fine-tune aspects of their riding. The Trail Academy can plan a session specifically for you or can respond to your needs with on-trail assessments and constructive guidance on how to make progress and improve as a rider. Personalised sessions allow for individual feedback, video analysis and time to develop skills. Most of all, our sessions are fun.

Our coaches can focus on different aspects of your riding. Some popular choices are:

• Cornering to maintain flow and carry speed

• Using natural trail features to save energy and maximise smoothness

• Drops and jumps - how to approach different types of features and how body position ensures control at all times

• Developing bike control with manuals, bunny hops and other tricks

• How to ride different trails types: steep, off-camber, rooty, rocky, etc

We can, of course, adapt sessions as your needs change or can look at your riding in general and suggest elements you may wish to focus upon.

We are passionate about mountain biking and want you to finish every session feeling positive about your riding and with a smile on your face.
