Private Coaching is a great option…
- If you prefer 1-to-1 coaching rather than the group dynamic
- If you’re a true newbie to the sport and a clinic sounds like too much
- When you have specific skills or maneuvers you’d like to work on
- Your schedule doesn’t align with our skills clinics

Thank you, Jim. I’m so glad to hear that your 2.5-hour drive to Burlington, CT was well worth the trip. The skills you learned will keep you safer on the bike, help you ride more efficiently, and will open up countless opportunities to have more fun on your bike!

I spent an afternoon having a private coaching session with Margie and I was amazed at how much I learned in 3 hours. Her focus on basic skills is incredibly effective. I had always heard about the importance of the fundamentals; body positioning, loading, braking techniques, etc. but I had no idea how important they really are. Margie’s approach to coaching really brings those concepts to life. In one session I was able to significantly improve my ability to get up and over obstacles, brake and corner more effectively and in general, ride with more confidence and comfort. For anyone looking to improve their riding, a session with Margie will be a game changer.

Nick, it was great watching your progress as we worked together and you’ll experience continued improvement as you spend time in your yard and trails practicing. I’m glad you liked how I planned your coaching time and that it worked well for you. Looking forward to working with you again in a couple of weeks.

Worked for two days with Margie. I took private lessons as I am pretty deaf in both ears and often struggle in group settings. I am really pleased with the classes and I learned a lot, and gained a lot of confidence. She mixed things up really well with a bit of riding and then skill work. The mix worked really well. I will definitely be taking more classes.

You were a lot of fun to work with, Carol. You have what it takes to become a really good mountain biker. You’ll enjoy the Sedona, Arizona trails even more now!

This was my first experience on a mountain bike…love it, thanks to the drills and techniques that were given during my lesson. The location was spectacular, surrounded by beautiful Verde Valley and Red Rock of Sedona. The confidence in my ability allowed me to take on the trail. Margie was there the entire time offering instruction. I can’t wait to hit the trail again!!!! Thank you, Thank you!!!

Booked a private session with Margie because I couldn’t attend the clinics. Definitely worth it. Great style of coaching, focuses on what you want to improve and I left with a ton of new things to work on. Once I get these skills down, I’ll be back for more.

Thank you, Michele. You could end up being a real hotshot on the bike! Keep at it and keep me posted with your progress.

I recommend a coaching session with Margie whether you are new to the sport or a seasoned rider.
Her style of coaching is clear and focused, so that I got immediate results when she put me through some drills. Not only did I come away with some very valuable techniques to take back to the trail, but I got a confidence boost as well!
It’s obvious that Margie has a great depth of experience in coaching, which any rider could benefit from. Don’t waste your time with YouTube tutotials, book a session with Margie!
