What – Find your Flow is a mountain bike (MTB) program to support women in building their confidence riding the trails.

It is for women riding intermediate (blue) trails in Alice Springs.

Together we will workshop obstacles, support each other, find our flow, and have fun doing it!

Why – to further develop mountain bike skills and self-efficacy to ride the Alice Springs mountain bike trails, connect with other women, and have fun.

Who – 6-8 females of all ages who can ride independently and comfortably on intermediate (blue) mountain bike trails

When – 3 weekly sessions on a Sunday from 8.00-10.30 am. Times may change depending on the weather.

• Sunday 12, 19 & 26 May 2024

Where – The meeting location is Telegraph Station and we will ride the East Side and West Side mountain bike trails around Alice Springs.

How – We check in, brief/recap each session, and then learn and integrate skills while riding the trails.

Specific skills covered will depend on the coach’s assessment of participants riding in the group on the day of the session.

Skills that may be instructed include cornering, braking, descending, slippery climbs, and jump/step-ups.

As a participant, you will receive and feel:

• coaching, one-on-one feedback, and group support to successfully ride over obstacles for the first time
• emotionally and mentally safe
• learn how to ride mountain bike trails with more ease (skill development, choosing a line, terrain awareness)
• develop mindset awareness to allow for more enjoyable riding
• connect with like-minded women
• understand the science of flow
• notes on skills covered each session
• be inspired, have fun, and realise you are capable of so much more!

Leadership, instruction, and support is by Georgina (George) Landy, an AusCycling MTB Development Instructor and Presenter, PMBIA Level 1 Instructor, Health & Life Coach, Outdoor Educator, Wilderness First Aider. She is super passionate about empowering women in the outdoors.

Quotes from previous participants:

“I have never done a group activity where such a safe, welcoming and encouraging space was held. This safe space was the most valuable thing to me as it gave me the courage to let myself go on the trails.”

“Starting off each session discussing where we were emotionally and physically was liberating. Voicing my vulnerabilities and listening to others speak facilitated a real connection amongst the group which was evident out on the trails. Riding in such supportive environment exponentially increased my ability to learn techniques and to find my flow.” 

***Please note this program requires a minimum of 4 riders to go ahead.***
