Balance Biker

Our five part Balance Bike Coaching course is aimed at little riders who want to improve their confidence. We define groups by ability rather than age so everyone can join in. If your child is comfortable with rolling but maybe struggles to keep their feet up, tends to roll off in the wrong direction or just needs some help getting to grips with Balance Biking then this is the course for you. If your child needs some help parents or guardians are more than welcome to join in.

Balance Bike Confidence

Balance Bikers will learn skills like moving and stopping as well as cornering. Rolling over simple obstacles and navigating a basic slalom course to improve their control. All activities are built around games with teams to helping each other navigate the activities.

Is This Course Right For Your Child?

Children joining the Balance Biker course should be able to propel themselves without help and understand how to stop. They should be comfortable using either their feet or brakes to stop on a gentle slope. The main thing however is enthusiasm! If your child is keen to ride and take part in games then they will be absolutely fine.

Everything will be explained by Dave your coach and riders shown what to do. We pride ourselves on developing bike handling skills, your child will become a more confident and able rider after our course. The 5 week course develops with small groups, some riders learn skills at different rates but each activity is designed to cater for that range of abilities.

Where Next?

There’s no specific time to move on to a pedal bike but if the time is right and we feel your child is ready then we also offer one hour private sessions to get them pedalling before they enter our Pedal sessions.

Prior to attending the first session we will send out a short survey that will include things like allergies or intolerances, a simple safety waiver and photography consent.

We’re looking forward to welcoming you and your Balance Bikers to SkidKids and if you have any questions ahead of the first date then please do get in touch via email on [email protected].

Thanks,

Dave
