Kingdom Mtb Camps is a skill-based camp that strives to improve riders' ability and confidence while having fun. We develop young riders in a healthy social environment filled with positive role models and peers. We want to help your child get excited about getting sweaty and dirty, while developing mountain bike skills and love for a lifelong sport.
Our coaching methods follow proven PMBI* methods for skill acquisition and riding ability. Our sessions typically have 30-35 campers and are split into 4 groups of 6-8 campers with 1 coach and 1-2 counselors per group. Small athlete-to-coach ratios provide a safe, positive learning environment and help ensure a fun day on the trails.
Our programming covers braking, riding position, trail awareness, turning, shifting, and more. Some groups progress to maneuvers like wheelies, bunny hops, jumps, and manuals.
We use the Kingdom Trails network, pump tracks, and our very own skills area during the session. Our main campus is filled with beginner to expert elements, including rollers, berms, bridges, and more. We give kids time to play and explore the home campus as we progress through the week.
AGES AND GROUP SELECTION (read this to help place your children in the right group)
Mountain biking is a skill-oriented sport where strength and size can have a significant effect on abilities. Ultimately, we want your child to be in a program with others of similar ability to create a positive and productive environment while out on the trail. We are NOT a never-ever camp and your child will spend significant time on their bike. At a minimum, your they should be able to start and stop on their own, pedal the bike on flat terrain, make a 180 degree turn while pedaling and have the proper up-to-date equipment.
*Professional Mountain Bike Instructor Association
These riders are capable of starting, stopping and turning on their own. We work on skills like body position, braking, turning and shifting while having fun. Children are introduced to pump track and single track riding in small groups, then head out for a taste of great flow trails like New School and Kitchel. Please note this is not an a program for a never- ever rider or has just started riding a bike. If your child has never ridden a bike or connot start, stop and turn on flat ground , or ride on their own up moderate hills, please consider a private lesson.
MEETS 9:00-12:00 Monday-Friday. AGES 6-9
Skill building, fitness and health are the main emphasis for our Middle Ring group. We strive to advance our campers into competent, responsible riders while getting awareness of what is healthy for their bodies. A typical session starts with 30 minutes of skills on a flat and easy terrain followed by balance and pressure control work on the Kingdom Trails network. After a snack break we hit the single track and log some miles! Some sessions may end with a well deserved dunk in the Dishmill Brook.

BRP will take the Middle Ring program up several notches and enhance the experience of those young athletes who love riding and want more of a challenge. This is an advanced program that will dive deeper into skills, ride more technical miles, over bigger features, and experience several shuttle rides as well. Other components will include: education in athlete nutrition, sport physiology, and sports psychology to help give athletes a better foundation to reach goals while getting more aquented with failure and its virtues.
To complete this module, we have added an extra 5 hours of programming into the week, which when combined, offers over 22 hours on the bike!
MEETS Monday-Friday 8:30am-12:30pm AGES 12-16
The Overnight Development Camp is for experienced riders and campers who have participated in our Day Camps or other organized programs and want to take their riding to the next level. We explore concepts in sport physiology, nutrition, and psychology while riding, playing and having fun. Our basic goal is to safely progress the athletes skills while increasing their knowledge of how things work with their body and mind. We are excited for our second year of a super fun and active week!
