Be one of tomorrow's champions today

Carl Nunn MX Training Academy has a track record in working with students to deliver significant gains in individual performance.

The expert Academy training is delivered over several months with small groups where the focus is on higher level race skills: something that only a former National champion can teach. The training sessions are conducted on a fortnightly basis at a range of challenging tracks in the UK. The format allows riders to gain individual attention and guidance. A friendly, but competitive environment is created as riders learn from each other by sharing their expertise. The competitive nature is maintained as riders get the opportunity to put their skills to the test against each other in motos and speed tests. Monitoring tools ensure performance gaps are clearly identified. Students benefit from seeing Carl personally demonstrate the techniques he is teaching. As a former national champion Carl is the only trainer in the UK that can tell and then demonstrate the actual techniques of a champion.

National race level Academy riders benefit from on-track coaching specifically held on a private hire basis at most BYN tracks, as well as coaching and support during race events at the British Youth National Series. The National level group learn and ride together, constantly pushing one another to their limits, gaining confidence and speed. They also receive mental and physical training and race advice.

 
Training & Goals

Training in any sport is essential if an athlete wants to achieve their maximum. Constant goals being set to improve, time on the bike, and outside observation are needed to prevent an athlete from becoming complacent. Academy MX Training emphasises on: Riding Technique including Starts, Jumps, Flat Corners, Berm’s, Ruts and different track types including Sand, and Hard pack. This will help the rider to safely and significantly increase Speed. Riders are taught how to optimise their techniques in all aspects, including motos, sprint laps, practice laps, and gate preparation.

 
Tailored to you

Every rider differers slightly from others in several aspects. During the training, riders’ strengths and weaknesses are identified: it may be braking, cornering, body position, jumping or throttle control that a rider specifically needs to work on. These are incorporated into their coaching, accounting for their level of riding technique. Riding in a group means riders can pick up from others as they train, as well as personal coaching points.

 
Safety

At Carl Nunn MX Training Academy, nothing is more important than our riders’ safety and wellbeing. Training focuses on track safety, ensuring that every rider is 100% in control and focused.

 
Much more
