Apply to register for a PMBIA Level 1 course in Whitehorse
We have organized a 3-day Professional Mountain Bike Instructors Association (PMBIA) Level 1 course to take place September 17 to 19, 2021 in Whitehorse, Yukon.
The Level 1 course will train both new and experienced instructors to skillfully teach and guide beginner to intermediate mountain bikers, in both cross country and downhill environments.
New instructors will learn the tools they need to safely and effectively teach, while experienced instructors will increase their level of skill and understanding in teaching and riding theory, that the PMBI Certifications uniquely provide.
