"Absolutely outstanding!!!!!!!!!!!! Informative and well thought out!!! Instructors were obviously the Best of the Best!!! And I did review previous negative post. I do remember that in first class that one of the rules for dismisal was not showing up on time. Everyone in our class did what the Instructor told us in class, show up at least 15 minutes early. Too bad that guy felt entitled to not set his alarm clock properly and think that everyone else should wait for him!!!"

"My daughter took the course and love it! Although she didn’t pass she learned so much and can’t wait to go back. Braydon & Dutchie brought their A-Game! My daughter will absolutely be going back, as will the rest of the family as they grow and learn. Thank you Learn To Ride!"

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I highly recommend Learn to Ride HD! They took my completely uncoordinated16-year-old daughter and transformed her into a confident and safe rider. The instructors were patient and took the time to explain everything in a way that made it easy for her to understand. They broke down the steps and concepts, which really helped her gain confidence, even as someone with no prior experience..."
