Hey there riding friend,
Today I want to let you in on why I started coaching mountain bike skills to adult women.
You see, when I started mountain biking as an adult, I really struggled with my descending skills.
My fitness carried me up the hills, but then I would inevitably get passed on the descents because I was grabbing my brakes out of fear. I thought if I would just stop using my brakes or be more brave, I would finally be able to keep up with my friends on the up hills AND the downhills.
I was so embarrassed to have people ride behind me and see how fearful I was and how much I used my brakes.
I thought if I just rode more, I would eventually learn how to get faster. But I only made small improvements over time and frankly, I was still terrified. In fact, I was a professional mountain bike racer and I was still terrified on the descents.
Sound familiar?
I knew deep down I wanted to ride fluidly, enjoy the descents, and finally kick my nerves to the curb.
Staying stuck and scared was simply not an option.
So, I hired a skills coach, learned how to ride with the precise skills.
💥 Even more importantly, I hired a mindset and performance coach and learned to calm my brain down so I could utilize my skills to ride smoothly and confidently😎.
Today, I now…

Keep up with my friends on the descents
But, foremost, I can do the above while feeling relaxed and with smile on my face:)
My own transformation is proof that a woman, who is extra nervous on the descents, can learn to ride like a total boss.
That’s why I’m now passionate about helping women stop hitting their brakes anytime there is a hint of fear and finally ride smoothly and confidently.
