Awesome lesson, Nic provides great structured feedback and is an knowledgeable teacher, encouraging and sharing her love of the trails, some tweaks to the set up and it feels like riding a new bike! Thanks for helping get the 'mojo' back on track
Awehhh, you are a star! Anytime! Looking forward to a lap of our local with you soon!

I did Nic's introduction to corners last year which was great. I wanted to do a private lesson this year to get prepped for the summer season. It was awesome! She broke down what I needed to work on (a lot!) into chunks that are easy to digest, and sent a follow-up email to reinforce what we went through. It included gear and modifications that would help improve my ride. A few days after my lesson, I hit the trails and could do corners and bits of the trail I was struggling with before. Her sense of humour and personality is also awesome. Thanks Nic! :-)
Thanks so much Jenn, bring on Summer!
Loved our second session, you will be railing those local trails in no time!

Michelle and I had a great experience with Nic. We are very much looking forward to putting what she taught us into practice. She made the learning easy and fun 🤩 We wish we’d done this earlier and will definitely be booking again!
Thanks so much Richard, I had a great time with you and Michelle. So looking forward to seeing your progress! See you soon, Nic

I had one group session with Nic and was amazed at her coaching. It was a really fun session and we found lots for me to work on! I left the session feeling more confident in my riding and stoked to get out there. Just waiting for some good timing to book more sessions!
Awesome Lawrence, Looking forward to helping you further soon!

Nic is a fantastic coach who gave me a great training as a starting mountainbiker. With the skills she taught me during an accessible and still challenging training of only 3 hours my speed, confidence and fun has gone up! Would really recommend anyone who is into mountainbiking to have some time with Nic!
Yes Maarten, looking forward to seeing your progress! 🤜

Nic ran a great group course on the fundamentals of cornering on a MTB. I am reasonably confident on the bike, but it was amazing how much i learned and how much technically i could improve on, from bike set up, to every aspect of the fundamentals ;)
Thanks Luke, you smashed it. Looking forward to seeing your progression and you at Advanced corners soon! 🤜⛰️🤛

Nic is such a great mountain bike coach! She has super relaxed style that makes you feel at ease and helps to get your riding dialled. She is also so knowledgeable about all the technical bike stuff, which was a great help to me! We covered so much in a 2 hour private lesson I’m so ready to get shredy this summer!
Yeow! You so are Sarah. Had so much fun teaching you. All the best for your new adventures! 🤜⛰️🤛

Just been back for another awesome private session with some like-minded female riders and I cannot recommend Nic enough! Her sessions are always super informative, easy to understand tips and an inclusive space to learn within your comfort zone, no pressure to go big and try everything. Always heaps of fun and full of laughs!
Thanks Hazel! So amped on your improvement in such a short space of time. Summer is going to be epic! 🚀 🤜⛰️🤛

Nic is the best mountain biking coach ever!! Seriously. From basic body position and corners to jumps and drops, Nic has helped me build the skills I needed to feel confident and have fun while riding on a whole range of mountain biking trails. I've had at least four coaching sessions with Nic, and I've learnt something new at each one. I was new to mountain biking when I took the first course with her, and it completely changed the way I ride a bike. She pays attention to detail and can clearly explain things in a way that makes sense. Not only does she offer bespoke advice for your riding style, she adjusts your bike set up to make sure it works for you. So, go for it, sign up for a lesson with Nic - it's the best investment you'll ever make for your riding.
Thanks Anna! I can't wait to see what these new body position tweaks are going to do for you and how they are going to advance your riding! See you soon! 🤜⛰️🤛

I so recommend Nic as a mtn bike coach. Nic explains the technique and what to do better really well. And makes it fun! Looking forward to putting it into practise.
Yes Pip! Looking forward to seeing you ripping on those trails!

What a great way to start the new spring MTB season and celebrate my birthday - high energy, positive women and fun riding - thanks Nic J

Such a valuable 2 hours! From making sure your gear is in order before setting off, to your optimum bike set up, your body position, cornering and just a real fun experience at Makara mountain bike park this was so worthwhile. Lots or learning as we climbed and then put it all in to practice as we head back down. My son and I felt much more confident in how we approached our cornering, both uphill and down hill! and getting our body position and line right for that safe fun descent, thanks Nic we learnt lots of stuff! Highly recommended!…….thanks to my niece for booking this for us, she is a much more experienced mountain biker and she learnt heaps too, as Nic great at tailoring the advice to your individual needs. Loved it! 😀🙏🏻❤️
Thanks so much Michael, it was a super fun lesson. All the best for your family trip to Rotorua, you will have a blast!

I had an incredible session with Nic, who is a fantastic mountain bike coach. We spent two hours, starting with the basics of body position and bike adjustments, which immediately made a huge difference in my comfort on the bike. Nic then guided me through uphill and downhill cornering, breaking everything down into simple steps that were easy to understand and apply.
When we started, I was nervous about tackling some of the trails, but Nic's patient and clear explanations, along with her great tips and tricks, quickly turned my nerves into excitement. By the end of the session, I was eager to keep practicing and felt much more confident in my skills. Nic’s coaching style is encouraging and thorough, making the experience both fun and highly educational. I can't recommend her enough for anyone looking to improve their mountain biking!
Thanks so much Rebecca, I had a great time coaching you this morning. Your progress was🚀 ! Nice work- can't wait to see you in a few months time! 🤜⛰️🤛

I wish I had used Nic as a coach when I started biking 15 years ago, my ACC/injury record would be a lot lower. With loads of bike/industry knowledge and a weapon on a bike, she also has a real knack for coaching. Nics professional and personable approach had a us both really comfortable demonstrating how we ride. After a two hour session with Nic I was stoked to come away with real progress. The follow up email and personalised notes from the session to each of us was really appreciated too.
Thanks so much team! You were rad to coach! Looking forward to seeing how you progress from here. You guys are both senders!! 🚀 🤜⛰️🤛

Always have a blast with Nic during sessions. She explains things in a way that is easy to understand and is so encouraging! I have some new tools to help me improve my cornering and body positioning which I can feel the difference with already. Thanks Nic! 😀
Can not wait to see where this takes you Jane, you are a Rockstar 🤜⛰️🤛

Nic is a wonderful coach and human! I booked a lesson as I've been feeling I had reached a plateau in my progression. I felt she really tailored her coaching according to my riding (not just generic advices), spotting plenty of details I can improve on. Great attention to details, professional and clear explanations and funny!
Thanks Claudia! Had a great time coaching you, and I can't wait to see how you punch thru that plateau from here! Bring on summer 🤜⛰️🤛

I booked a private lesson with Nic to lay some good foundations for my riding as a new mountain biker. Nic was terrific: she’d planned a really thoughtful lesson, and was patient, engaging, and hilarious. I’ve come away with a good grasp of fundamental body positioning (and lots of other things to work on). After the lesson Nic sent me a email containing a detailed summary of the session, reminders and tips, and some recommendations for gear that I’d asked for. I’m looking forward to catching up with Nic again in a few months - by which time I’ve hopefully nailed my body positioning!
Yeaha Hamish, looking forward to seeing you soon, you will be ripping the trails in summer! 🤜⛰️🤛

Nic is a fantastic teacher, super knowledgable, funny and kind. I came away from my lesson with even more appreciation for the sport, and a spring in my step at the thought of the progress I’m about to make with my new found skills. Will 100% follow up in a few months to check-in and hone my skills further. Highly recommend!
Thanks Robin, can't wait to see your progress! 🤜⛰️🤛

Highly recommend! Nic was an awesome coach. Had a real fun lesson on the fundamentals of cornering. Nic kept it simple but also gave us heaps to think about and work on. Made a massive improvement in the 2 hour lesson.
Thanks so much Mike, super stoked with your progress. That last corner was the icing on the cake! 🤜⛰️🤛
