About The Clinic

Dirtastic Coach Cortney Carpenter is hosting an Intro to Motocross Clinic at Happy Moto in Redmond, Oregon. This session is designed for riders who want to build confidence and learn the fundamentals of motocross riding. If you’ve ever wanted to feel comfortable on a track, navigating corners, learning body positioning, and safely approaching jumps this clinic is for you! This clinic is best suited for beginner to intermediate riders, Dirtastic Levels 2–4.

What to Expect

We’ll begin with a bike inspection and setup check to make sure you’re ready to roll. Then we’ll move into structured drills that break down the essentials of track riding, so you can build a strong foundation and ride with confidence.

Key skills you’ll learn include:

  • Body positioning basics: feet, knees, elbows, and eyes, how to stay balanced and in control, whether you’re sitting or standing.

  • Cornering techniques: how to approach, enter, and exit turns smoothly with the right amount of throttle, brake, and body movement.

  • Jumping fundamentals: safe techniques to get both wheels off the ground and land in control.

  • Braking & acceleration drills: how to manage speed and traction on the track.

  • Track flow & line selection: reading the track and choosing the best paths for smoother, safer laps.

After skills practice, you’ll put it all together, putting in motos around the track, with coaches offering feedback and encouragement every step of the way.

What's Included?

  • Training with our all-female team of coaches.

  • Small group sizes of 6-10 riders per coach.

  • A supportive environment focused on fun, skill progression, and confidence building.
