Description

The BEST way to level up FAST on your MTB. Get Certified, Master's Level coaching for YOUR technique. Let's get you fast, NOW! Get ready to tackle the jump, drop, berm, technical section or trail that you never thought you could. We've designed this class with scientifically proven educational best-practices to maximize learning through the CORE process: demonstration, guided practice, analysis, and self-directed, proctored repetition. This camp is limited to 4 riders only. Though intermediate level riders are eligible, prerequisite experience and instructor approval are required before signing up. Contact [email protected] or call 417-592-6467 to be approved. The camp covers 2 partial days. Four hours each day. This provides time for riders to absorb and develop muscle memory, and to recover for more learning. Riders will learn from demonstration and from participation in cohort groups. Riders will benefit from self-reflection and analysis of their own form in slow motion video.
