Our Classes
We are running our classes at various venues across Sussex. We have both outdoor venues, because it’s always great to be out in the fresh air, and indoor venues, just in case it gets a bit too wet and cold during the winter months.
Learn to Ride Classes
Balanceability Level 1 course at Nurseries
This is aimed at children from the age of 2-4 yrs. At this level, the fundamental movement patterns, gross motor skills and dynamic balance are incorporated along with an introduction to the balance bike. Children learn how to pick up, manoeuvre, mount and dismount their bikes and then learn the skills to ride a balance bike safely. The aim of level 1 is to create the confidence to glide a balance bike with their feet off the floor.
COURSE COST: £100 per 1 hour session (up to 20 max children in 2 x 30 minute classes or 10 max children in a 1 hour class)
Balanceability Level 2 weekly x 3 sessions at schools
This is aimed at children of 4-11+ and continues the development of gross motor skills and dynamic balance. The main goal is to get the children pedalling their bikes, stopping and braking skills to enable them to ride solo on a pedal bike safely and confidently. The art of riding a bicycle is dependent upon a good understanding and experience of balance.
COURSE COST: £65

We will also play some classic party games but on bikes and maybe even a game of bike football?! The birthday girl or boy will receive a free Free Woodland class and then a 50% voucher on a Level 1 or 2 course.
