steep terrain and some great views!

  • Low Instructor to participant ratios

  • Flexible Instruction topics 

  • Experienced Beginner & Intermediate riders

  • Over 10 hours of instruction  

  • ​Women and Non-Binary folks

Time to up the descending factor and get down! Learn the skill to get those bikes up to the mountain top, soak up the views and then practice techniques with certified coaches all the way to the bottom, whether its tight corners, steep descending trails or hitting some jumps!

LESSONS + PRACTICE

That's the design we follow in all our programs: take one topic in mountain biking, have certified coaches talk about why it's important and break down how to do it with static and dynamic demonstrations. Then its time for you to practice gradually and with progressive challenges until we're feeling good. Afterwards, we take it to the trail, where we choose ability-appropriate trails and identify and practice those topics on "real life features". 

 

A special type of magic happens in the forest with a supportive crew, for this reason we limit our clinic participants to adult women and non-binary folks (we do have some awesome male coaches though!) If you identify as female or non-binary, know that you are welcome

LOCATIONS

​

Valemount has incredible berm & jump trails, with enough steeper terrain, wood features (like drops) and all sorts of corners to keep every rider happy! With a shuttle to take you back up!

​

Chat with your instructors so they know your goals and can tailor their instruction.

ABILITIES

If you're out on the trails with SheShreds MTB, we want you to have a blast! To make sure you have the best experience, we have to get to know you and your abilities on a bike better.

​

Our mountain clinics are for beginners and intermediate level riders. Looking to "up" your skills on more challenging terrain - great, we would love to have you! Got a bike a few years ago, have been enjoying riding and would like to ride with more confidence - sounds like a plan! Done a few mountain trips and looking to slay those berms with a bit more technique - we would love to help ya!

 

When finding the ability group that best suits you, consider your fitness level as well. Valemount clinic is shuttled.

​

Ability descriptions can be found here. Please pick the category that suits you best so that we can pair you with a group with similar skill sets. Part of your registration will ask questions to better assess your abilities. 

​

​It is recommended that you speak with your physician about starting any new physical activity. In addition, a health-based questionnaire is required by all SheShreds members.
