Jon is brilliant - our son learnt to ride in 4 short hours from using the bike as a balance bike to the final lesson having pedals on and being independent. Jon is patient, encouraging and truly cares. I cannot recommend the course enough! thank you 😊

Thank you so much John for teaching Juno to ride his bike. After tirelessly trying to teach him ourselves it took just 3 lessons with Little Riders for him to be riding with confidence. He is so proud of himself and very happy that we can now go on family bike rides together.

These courses are brilliant if you are struggling to teach your child to ride. My daughter has gone from being afraid to ride and scare of falling off, to riding confidently and loving it. Jon is amazing with the kids and also clearly communicates the methods to parents to help reinforce learning. If you think your child needs help riding, get them on a course!

Wow - so impressed after 4 hours of lessons that our daughter can now ride her bike, it was a special moment watching this. The sessions are well structured and build up confidence in the children. Thank you Jon.

Massive thanks to Jon at Little Riders, in just 4 weeks our daughter has gained so much confidence on her bike and there is now no stopping her, something we just couldn’t get to click ourselves. 100% recommend Little Riders. The lessons are fun and engaging for little ones👍🏻

What an exceptional experience we have had with Jon at Little Riders. Prior to the learn to ride course, our daughter just couldn't get the hang of cycling nor did we know how to teach her! The years went on and we really needed professional help- enter Little Riders. Wow, in 4 weeks, Tallulah's confidence has skyrocketed, she wants to ride her bike and most importantly now, she CAN ride a bike! Very highly recommend

Excellent course and great value, it’s amazing how the kids learn to ride a bike in four 1hr sessions! The pedals go on for the last lesson and suddenly they’re all cycling around! Jon is fantastic with them. Would thoroughly recommend ⭐️

Jon must be a magician! After many tears trying to teach our daughter ourselves we booked this course and I can’t believe that in 4 hours she is now confidentially riding a bike and she has asked every day since to go out on her bike. Jon breaks everything down step by step so it’s really comfortable for the children and not overwhelming, he makes it fun for them with some good games and has a good sense of humour. I cannot recommend this course enough. Thank you.

To my amazement, in just 4 x 1 hour lessons, my 4 year old is riding his bike confidently stabiliser free! Jon has been a fantastic teacher. Definitely will be looking into the improvers course and recommending little riders to everyone.

Our daughter has just finished a course to learn to ride her bike with Jon. Amazing course- well structured and paced. Jon has the patience of an angel and a good sense of humour. Our daughter has gone from not wanting to get on her bike to riding confidently- can’t believe in only 4 hours! Would recommend to anyone whose children are nervous or struggling to learn.

Absolute magic! ✨ We would highly recommend the learn to ride course with Jon. Starting as a very nervous 6yo, my daughter transformed before our eyes into a confident rider … in 4 sessions! It was incredible to watch the process, I’ve been raving about it all week.

Our 5 year old son has learnt about his bike and how to ride it without stabilisers in 4 hours! Jon has an excellent teaching style and set up for this course and it is well worth the money. Do not hesitate to book your children in 😊 we will be doing the follow up course for definite!

Our son has just finished a course to learn to ride his bike with Jon. It was excellent from start to finish, Jon had a wonderful manner with the children and was so calm and patient. The course built up bit by bit and it was amazing to see how confident my son because after just a short amount of time. Seeing him ride his bike independently for the first time was fantastic, Jon has taught him more in the last 4 sessions than we have for years! I would certainly recommend to anyone considering it.

I feel like we witnessed real life magic this week ✨ After seriously struggling to teach my daughter myself I honestly couldn't believe that after just 3 hours that she was riding a bike! Jon is absolutely incredible with the children, so calm, engaging and encouraging. As soon as our last session ended we hit the park, which was just pure joy 🥹 Last night we couldn't get her off her bike! Will definitely be booking onto the Improvers course. Thank you SO much! 🤩
