BECOME A MOUNTAIN BIKE INSTRUCTOR AT VEJLE SPORTS SCHOOL

We look into various mountain bike certificates.

With DGI (Danish sports association) MTB Basic Club Instructor you get the basic methods and skills for instructing mountainbiking in clubs or other mountain bike activities at a basic level. We spend our time on the forest trails and in the theory room, because the course emphasizes lots of practice alongside the theoretical lessons.

The course will give you a good foundation and a toolbox that will be a good starting point for safety and routine as an MTB instructor in a club. During the course you get to reflect on your role as an instructor, and we work with different types of activities, different driving techniques and topics that you will touch upon in the role as an instructor.

We discuss how to connect practice with theory. The technical aspects will be coupled with various forms of activity, training tools and educational considerations.

We learn how to adapt our mountain bike instruction for children and make your lessons fun and motivating for the youngest members of a club. With a children’s trainer course, you learn how to organize cycling instruction for children.

We will do technical training to improve our handling of the bike, but this course will not focus on your own training.
