Want to ride faster, smoother and with more confidence this summer? Start with the skills.

Our 2026 Adult Workshop Series is designed to help you sharpen the fundamentals, build confidence and develop the skills that make a real difference when you’re out riding.

Each workshop focuses on a specific area of riding, with plenty of repetition and practical coaching before taking those skills onto the trail. We’ve intentionally chosen each venue to best suit the focus of the workshop and create the right environment for learning and progression.

FOUNDATION
Go back to the building blocks that make everything else easier. We’ll work on body position, braking, balance, bike control and fundamental movement. Then put those skills into practice on the trail.

JUMP
Build confidence and control in the air. We’ll break down the key techniques behind jumping, from approach and take-off to body position, timing and landing.

CORNERING
Carry more speed with more control. Learn how to approach corners, choose your lines, manage braking and use your body position to create grip and flow.

Whether you’re looking to clean up your technique, ride more confidently or simply take your riding to the next level, these workshops are about understanding the technique, putting in the repetitions and making the skills instinctive.

3 hours | R890pp | MTB & E-Bike Friendly.

🚀 READY TO GET BETTER AT JUMPING?
Our next Adult Jump Workshop is coming up on 5 September at Hoogekraal.
Jumping is about more than simply getting your wheels off the ground. Good technique gives you more control, confidence and consistency — whether you’re working on your first jumps or looking to take your existing skills further.
Our Level 1 & 2 Jump Workshop is designed to help you understand the fundamentals, build good habits and get plenty of repetition in a supportive environment.

🔹 LEVEL 1�For riders who are newer to jumping or still feeling unsure when approaching jumps. We’ll work on the fundamentals and help you become more comfortable and controlled when your wheels leave the ground.
🔹 LEVEL 2�For riders who are already comfortable with smaller jumps and want to progress further. We’ll work on technique, confidence, height and consistency to help you take your jumping to the next level.

🎯 WHO SHOULD JOIN?�Intermediate riders who can confidently ride blue and red trails, with at least a year of regular riding experience. You don’t need to be an experienced jumper — just be ready to learn and progress.

📅 5 September 2026�📍 Hoogekraal, Tygerberg MTB�⏰ 9am – 12pm�🚵 Adults | Level 1 & 2�⚡ Regular MTB & E-Bikes welcome�💰 R890 per person
