Flagstaff Mountain Bike Clinic Options

MTB Classes For Beginners

If you’re new to mountain biking, Fundamental Skills Clinics are the place to start. Beginner mountain bike classes will give you the foundation you need to start your journey. You’ll learn the basics of mountain biking, including how to handle your bike, how to shift gears, and how to navigate rough terrain. Their experienced coaches will be with you every step of the way, helping you build confidence and skills. Whether you’re looking for full-day, half-day, or women’s only clinics, there are options for every rider!

MTB Classes For Intermediate and Advanced Riders

For more experienced riders, Ninja MTB offers intermediate and advanced mountain bike classes and courses to help you take your riding to the next level. You’ll learn new techniques, how to tackle more challenging trails, and how to become a more confident and skilled rider.

Our 2-day Mountain Bike Skills camp gives you a chance to build up and clean up your toolbox of mountain biking skills; from the fundamentals to wheels lifts, high-speed cornering, drops, technical features and so much more!

If you’re ready to learn to jump, join us for a Jumping Clinic as we take you through a series of progressions that will help you understand all the components that come together to create a successful jump. By the end of this clinic, our goal is to have you successfully clearing a 4-5 foot jump (approximately 2 feet in the air) and landing safely and predictably.

Kids Mountain Bike Classes

Are your kids between the ages of 8-11 and excited about mountain biking? In the Kids Fundamental Skills Clinic, we cover the key skills they need to become a safer and more proficient rider (all while having FUN)! We recognize that kids learn differently than adults, so we have developed a kid-friendly, fun and engaging curriculum that covers the key foundational skills that every young mountain biker should learn. Through games, drills and trail riding, your kid will leave with a new level of confidence on their bike and more tools in their riding toolbox.
