"Pacific Motorcycle Training was a superb class. Even though I had ridden a motorcycle before, they still taught valuable habits and lessons in the beginner course. The instructors are friendly and knowledgeable, and the whole experience was immensely valuable. I would highly recommend to anybody interested in riding a motorcycle!"

"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..."

"I had a terrific experience at the two-day basic training course. The programming was extremely well-organized, and the instructors were both skilled and extremely supportive and encouraging. They gave really helpful individualized attention even in the midst of the large-group instruction. I also felt they were truly committed to the safety and success of their students. I will recommend this course widely and return again for more advanced instruction."

"Had an excellent experience in my classes. The instructors were knowledgeable and very helpful. It was obvious to me that that the people working here really care about riding and about the safety of their students. 11/10 experience highly recommend."

"The instructors were friendly and very knowledgeable. They were patient and gave me a lot of helpful tips when I was having trouble with the controls and following some of their instructions. Evie ran to help me when I fell over (thank God I wasn't going fast). I would have liked to spend more time getting used to the bike before starting maneuvers. It was my first time on a motorcycle and I never learned how to drive a car with a manual transmission so it took me a while to learn how to coordinate the clutch/switching gears with the acceleration..."

"Instructors were very patient and informative. They are very understanding of riders who have never been on a bike and make time to take you aside and explain how to adjust your riding style to improve your skills to have a better and safer riding experience! Thank you so much guys and special thanks to Stephanie!"
