THE SCIENCE BEHIND SMARTER, FASTER & SAFER RIDING
Whether you're chasing speed or confidence, these science-based techniques help you ride smarter, faster, and safer. Learn what the pros know, grounded in data, made for every rider.
WHAT YOU LEARN
First and foremost, riders will gain an intimate understanding of how body control, dictated by sensory input and newly learned interpretations and reactions, is the key to improvement.
We teach riders the right reactions to sight/sound/balance input, and help to develop both mind and muscle memory, so future rides or races result in more speed, more safety, and a lot more satisfaction.
WHY YOU LEARN
Our Two-Day Academy provides students of all skill levels, from those with little experience to competition riders who want to increase their chances of winning, with the tools necessary to improve and enhance every riding experience. Prior track experience required.
​
Fact: Professional training at a racing circuit, including classroom and paddock instruction, and plentiful track time is the only way riders can get faster, better, and safer.
WHERE YOU LEARN
There’s only one environment for efficiently teaching high-performance motorcycle riding – the race track.
​
At 2.32 miles the Podium Club circuit in Casa Grande, offers 15 uniquely different turns, challenging elevation changes, a fun and tricky section of esses, a table-smooth surface and no metal barriers.
​
Train where the pros train. Attack Yamaha, Rahal, M4 Suzuki, Altus, Harley Davidson, Indian Motorcycles, BPR and many other teams have chosen the Podium Club.
WHO YOU LEARN FROM
The Podium Club Riding Academy's lead instructor is Josh Hayes, four-time AMA Superbike Champion, Formula Xtreme Champion, and a racer who is the rare expert in knowing how to communicate improvement techniques to student riders.
​
Our staff is composed of racers and highly skilled coaches who possess the unique ability to teach instead of preach. We ensure students improve their skills and become better, faster, and safer hi-performance motorcycle riders.
LEARNING ON AND OFF THE TRACK
Each day kicks off with a Track Walk. During the first day’s walk, there is a focus on the primary lines most riders use and some reference points everyone can use.
Riders will be on track approximately 50% of the time as the instructors carefully balance class room training and theory with riding exercises and practice. Students will learn techniques and principles, consistency, awareness, rider adjustments and more.
Video is utilized throughout the training, and at the conclusion of the course coaches will show students their original pace upon arrival, and their progress upon completion of the program.
