"Zac & Isaac took the time to explain not just how to ride, but why each technique matters—from proper clutch control and braking to situational awareness on the road. They created a comfortable learning environment where I felt supported, never rushed, and always safe."

"Had the best experience here! Evie and Erin were great teachers, they made the training fun and intentional. I went from never riding a bike to being completely comfortable shifting gears, emergency braking and swerving and so much more in just 2 days. Highly recommend this course for safety, skills, confidence, and fun!"

"Craig and Kurt were some of the best instructors I ve ever interacted with, very passionate about their craft and making sure you re learning safely and effectively. If you are interested in learning how to ride and get your M1 license, want input on relearning the basics, and/or learn advanced techniques, this is the place to do so."

"I took the ARC 1&2 in one weekend and can confidently say I improved my riding skill as much in one weekend as years of riding on the street. My instructors, Colleen and Earl were total experts and extremely friendly, allowing me to feel comfortable to push myself trying and failing and trying again these difficult new skills. The classes were well worth it for me and the perfect step to doing my first track day"

"I got the Total Control book by Lee Parks when I registered and read it before attending the class. I had started to adopt some of the new riding techniques before the course and recommend doing so if possible. The course followed the book with a short classroom overview of each technique and then repeated riding opportunities with coaching after trying out each new technique. The course instructors were all very professional and highly skilled riders that knew their stuff..."

"Great course even if you have zero riding experience like me. Instructor Dillon struck a great balance between enthusiastic coaching, professional approach and having a good time. Lots of time actually riding and learning to handle the bike. You can bring your own bike if you check with the office first. My partner (who already rides) took this class with me and thought it was a significantly better class than other CSMP courses he has attended in the area..."
- Elena Morozova, March 2024
"Evee is such a great instructor with a big heart and a lot of heart of Patients I came in with zero riding experience and now that I have gone through the course have learned so much highly recommended for anyone wanting to ride motorcycle/ scooter"
