Multi-Day Events

Join us for a challenging and fun multi-day camp on some of the best trails around!

2-Day Camps

Our 2-day camp gives you a chance to build up and clean up your toolbox of mountain biking skills; from the fundamentals to  wheels lifts, high-speed cornering, drops, technical features and so much more!  Join us for a full weekend of skills that will equip you to better handle a variety of terrain with speed and efficiency.

This comprehensive Ninja program allows you to put the entire ninja curriculum together into one epic weekend.  The camp kicks off with an overview of the foundational riding skills and builds up to more advanced material over the course of the weekend including jumping, high speed cornering, technical climbing/descending, drops and more. The weekend is taught in a progressive format meaning each skill builds on another, giving everyone an opportunity to progress at their own pace!

What is an “Adventure” 2-Day Camp?

2-Day Camps that are designated as “Adventure” cover all the same curriculum as other 2-Day camps but in highly sought after destination riding locations. Adventure camps provide you with the same professional instruction as other Ninja clinics while allowing you to ride some of the best trails in the country.

Don’t worry, camps that aren’t designated as Adventure Camps will still challenge you and you’ll absolutely leave a better rider. We work hard to select the best teaching locations and around the country and you might be surprised by how great that local trail network is for learning.

Other Multi-Day Camps

We like to mix it up occasionally and offer an event that doesn’t match the clinic options listed above. For example, every year we offer a 3-Day Camp at Mulberry Gap in North Georgia that combines our traditional 2-day camp curriculum with longer rides and more time to apply your skills to on-trail features (plus blueberry pancakes, hot tubs and fireside hangs).

Well worth your time if you want to improve!
We attended the 2-Day Mountain Bike Skills Camp in Denver CO. I'm a beginner to mountain biking and the class exceeded my expectations. The first day was basic fundamental training from bunny hops to cornering your bike. The second day we put those skills to the test by climbing and downhill at all different skill levels, Richard and Aaron even took video to help improve our skills. Well worth your time if you want to improve!

Best investment ever. The Ninja mountain bike skill clinics will definitely bring up your riding level a notch or two.

Highly recommended! Essential riding skills are thoroughly broken down making them easy to understand and learn. Coach Richard and Kris are some of the most professional and pleasant coaches/cyclist/people I have come across. Looking forward to one of their future clinics.
