How it Works
The Body Position & Knee Down Class maintains a 50:50 track/classroom ratio from 09:00 am to around 04:30 pm. The morning sessions deep dive into body positioning and real MotoGP riding styles. After lunch, the focus shifts to achieving that coveted knee-down position on the asphalt in our ovals, utilizing the Superbike-Coach mini bike. The class covers various aspects of body position and hanging-off. A prerequisite for this course is recommended to have at least an upper-intermediate skill level in line choice, counter steering, and trail braking. If you need to brush up on these skills, consider our popular Cornering School program. You’ll be amazed at how much there is to learn to master ‘body positioning’ and dragging that knee right.
