Class Schedule
Grip Academy serves kids age 4 through 8th grade. Kids must be pedaling without training wheels in order to participate in Grip Academy. If your child is not yet pedaling on two wheels, please register for one of our Get Rollin’ Learn-to-Ride Classes.
Register your child for the Grip Level that most closely describes their current ability. We will perform an assessment on your child’s first day to ensure proper placement.

With a Two or Three Classes/Week Membership, you have the option of using one of your credits for our optional Thursday activities.
Kids can put their Grip Academy skills to the test at the Folsom Grom Race Series. This short track mountain bike series on Thursdays teaches kids in 5th grade & under the ropes of racing in a safe, fun environment. Your Grip Academy coaches will be out there to support you! On non-race Thursdays, we will offer a group ride/activity option.
All classes and activities must be booked through our Team Up calendar.
Grip Testing Days
Kids will attend Testing Days when they are ready to level up to the next Grip color. This will be based on coach recommendation. Grips are $15 each time your child levels up, or you can use a class credit to attend Testing Day and your grips are free.
