Basics Level II “beginner-mediate”

So, you’ve attended one of our Basics Skills classes, learned a lot, but aren’t quite ready for the Intermediate clinic?    This clinic was designed for you!  The Basics Level II “beginner-mediate” is the next progression in your mountain biking and will put the core skills you’ve already learned out directly on the trails.

Following training you will see an immediate improvement in your riding and a boost in confidence. You’ll understand how changes in your body position, footwork and where you are looking affect the way your bike behaves on single track trails. You’ll be able to tackle steeper terrain, corner with greater control and negotiate small trail obstacles with ease.

These is a high-demand for this clinic, sign up right away to secure your spot.

“Richard kept it light and fun and made everyone feel comfortable. There were a variety of skill levels there but you made everyone feel like there was something for them to learn and ways for them to grow. Second of all, the Ninja team is kick-ass! Crazy awesome! I fell in love with Kristen and Jess and was so incredibly inspired by them– thanks so much!” ~Annie M. (Ninja-in-training)

Enrolling in the Intermediate/Advanced clinic was the best thing I’ve ever done to improve my speed and ability on the bike.

Just finished a two day skills workshop in Dallas. To say it was the best money I've ever spent on mountain biking would be an understatement. Our instructor was a wonderful teacher and just a real pleasure to be around kind of guy. I highly recommend Ninja for anyone from novice to advanced riders as they cover just about anything and everything that will make you a more rounded rider. Thanks so much for all the advice and coaching!

Great clinic. Just what I needed to better know how to handle situations on the trail to maintain speed/momentum and...

Overall, the camp exceeded my expectations. I have, like many cyclists, been riding bikes since childhood. Feeling like I hit a plateau in my technical riding...

That was time well spent – thanks Coach Richard! That was time well spent – thanks Coach Richard! If you do more clinics, I’d recommend them to my friends.

Well worth your time if you want to improve! We attended the 2-Day Mountain Bike Skills Camp in Denver CO. I'm a beginner to mountain biking and the class exceeded my expectations. The first day was basic fundamental training from bunny hops to cornering your bike. The second day we put those skills to the test by climbing and downhill at all different skill levels, Richard and Aaron even took video to help improve our skills. Well worth your time if you want to improve!

Best investment ever. The Ninja mountain bike skill clinics will definitely bring up your riding level a notch or two.

Marcus M.

Highly recommended! Essential riding skills are thoroughly broken down making them easy to understand and learn. Coach Richard and Kris are some of the most professional and pleasant coaches/cyclist/people I have come across. Looking forward to one of their future clinics.
