We help schools with all things biking! We offer coaching for a range of bike-techniques, or cycle-skill coaching (on roads), and we design and plan bike and scooters tracks.
The team is led by Former Jnr-World Champion, and Sport Scientist Dr Scarlett Hagen (BPhEd, PGDipOE, MPhEd, PhD). Scarlett was a professional racer for a decade – She won the World Championships (Junior), in between standing on lots of World Cup podiums (Senior).
BikeSchool guarantees that you will be provided with the best coach to meet your needs. Our professional coaches have completed relevant coaching qualifications and are experienced at articulating their technical knowledge.
During the past decade we have completed academic research projects. If you are interested in reading any of the articles listed below, please use the contact form to make your request. Downloads must be for private use only.
