BMBA Ladies MTB Beginner Clinic at Valmont
Women's introductory mountain bike clinic at Valmont Bike Park in Boulder — build foundational skills in a supportive, beginner-friendly setting.
The vibe
First moves, real confidence
Valmont Bike Park is one of the best places in the country to learn mountain biking — purpose-built features, forgiving soil, and a layout that makes progression feel natural rather than terrifying. BMBA’s ladies-only beginner clinic uses it well, walking new riders through the foundational skills at a novice pace with no pressure to keep up with anyone who’s already comfortable clipping in.
The women-only format matters more than it might sound. Questions get asked more freely, mistakes get laughed off easier, and the whole energy is collaborative rather than performative. Coaches keep things practical and grounded — you’ll leave having actually ridden something, not just talked about technique in a parking lot.
If you’ve been curious about mountain biking but don’t know where to start, or you’ve done a bit but never had formal coaching, this is the on-ramp. Check BMBA’s calendar for upcoming clinic dates and register early — spots fill up.
