Cycle Station chooses Squish bikes to further expand on their successful Balance Bike Training Program for Children
CycleStation Balance Buddies, with Squish Bikes
Cycle Station, Ayrshire’s leading bike refurbishment specialists and provider of children’s balance bike training, is thrilled to announce the expansion of its cycle training programme adding more sessions which are designed to help children develop essential motor skills, coordination, and confidence.
Our Balance bike sessions have gone from strength to strength and have gained immense popularity due to their effectiveness in teaching children how to balance and steer without the need for stabilisers. Our instructors have recognised the need to develop the balance bike sessions to older children and to further develop into skill and coordination sessions.
Key features of the new Training Program include:
- Expert Guidance: Our program is led by a team of experienced instructors who have undergone cycle instructor training and have a wealth of experience in bicycles. They possess the skills and knowledge required to effectively teach children the fundamentals of bike riding.
- Progressive Learning: We offer a carefully designed block of sessions that progresses at the pace of each individual child. Starting with basic balance exercises and gradually introducing more complex manoeuvres, our program ensures a gradual and comfortable learning process.
- Engaging Activities: We understand that children learn best through play. That’s why our program incorporates a variety of interactive activities, games, and challenges that keep children excited and motivated while building their biking skills.
- Safe Environment: Safety is our top priority. We provide a controlled and secure learning environment where children can develop their riding skills with confidence. Our instructors are trained in safety protocols and ensure that all participants are equipped with the necessary safety gear.
“We are delighted to introduce our extension of what started as a few Balance Bike sessions into a more comprehensive cycle training programme, which offers a unique and effective approach to teaching children how to ride a bike,” said Derek Beaton of Cycle Station. “By combining expert instruction with engaging activities, we aim to create a positive learning experience that instils confidence and a lifelong love for cycling.”
Derek further added, “When it comes to selecting the perfect bike for child’s training, the Squish Bike stands out as the ultimate choice. With its exceptional features, innovative lightweight design, and outstanding quality, the Squish Bike offers numerous advantages that make it the preferred option to train on for young riders”.
Our Balance Bike Training Program is open to children from the age of 3 with learn to ride, skills sessions and confidence building sessions open to all ages. Classes are available at Loudoun Leisure, Loudoun Academy, Galston and registration is now open. Helmets and Squish bikes are provided along with other training equipment required.
