COACHING BUILT ON A LIFETIME OF RACING. CLINICS DESIGNED FOR YOUR RIDING.
Session formats built around how you ride.
Some riders thrive in a group. Others get more from one-on-one time. That's why we offer both - because the best coaching meets you where you are.
Beginner & Intermediate Classes
Never too late to start, never too early to improve. Sam's beginner and intermediate sessions are designed to build real confidence on the bike - covering the core skills that make every trail feel more manageable and every ride more enjoyable.
Group Sessions
Ride with others, learn faster. Group sessions are a great way to pick up new skills in a relaxed and supportive environment, with coaching from someone who has spent a career at the top of the sport. Open to adults and riders aged 12+, with a range of group sizes available. Grab your mates and learn together.
Private Coaching
The fastest way to progress is one-on-one time with the right coach. Whether you're riding solo, bringing a friend or booking in with a group, Sam's private sessions are tailored to your goals, your pace and where you want to take your riding next.
Tailored coaching.
Focused feedback.
Real results.
Sam has spent 20 years reading terrain and riders alike. In every session, that experience goes directly into the feedback you get and the skills you take home.
Coaching from someone who's been there before
Every session builds skills you'll take with you, wherever you ride.
Build skills that go with you, wherever you ride
World Cup experience translates to fixes that work, not theory that sounds good.
