“Wow! Had such a fun couple of days this weekend taking my Basic Rider Course with these guys. I rarely write positive reviews, but the guys n girls here at TEAM Arizona truly deserve a huge pat on the back. The instructors were some of the best / friendly people you'll ever meet. I went from a novice rider, who had only ever ridden quads - to being confident to ride my own bike, in 15 hours of written & riding based training over 2 days. I now feel a lot safer about taking my bike out on the streets of Arizona. Thank you so much TEAM Arizona. I will most certainly be back to hone my skills in the future.”

“I took the basic rider course back in July and can't say enough how beneficial it was. I enrolled in the course to obtain my motorcycle endorsement for my drivers license but gained much more. It not only gives you in depth training on how to properly operate a motorcycle technically, but also teaches you how do so in a way that keeps you safe while riding. All the coaches were helpful, patient, friendly, and gave in depth answers to any and all of my questions. I look forward to taking the next level courses they offer in the near future, and recommend anyone interested in learning to ride take this course before they start!”

“I took the Basic Rider Course and a little over a year later I took the three day course to receive my endorsement. Absolutely loved it! The riding instructor was patient knowledgeable and genuinely concerned about all of us learning correctly so we stay safe! Would highly recommend TEAM Arizona to anyone considering getting on a bike. I think it has helped me even as a passenger on my husbands bike! ”

“I needed to suddenly learn how to ride a motorcycle on account of my car dying, and still needing to make the 10 mile drive to work. I was able to slip into a class in Gilbert, and over the course of the three short days, I went from 0 knowledge to feeling reasonably safe driving home to Tucson. The pacing of the course was fantastic, neither overwhelming nor too slow to the point of being boring.

The instructors have a real and palpable love of riding and it shows. I would strongly consider returning to TEAM Arizona for more advanced courses.”
- Peter Fesz-Nguyen

“I took the Basic Rider Course about a year ago. It was my first time on a bike with the handle bars in my hands and the instructors made me feel calm and in control through the entire duration of the class. All of the instructors had years, if not decades, of experience and shared first-hand accounts of when their training had helped them get out of a scary situation at least once, so that was reassuring. The classes are very well organized and at the end of it, I felt confident about taking my test to get my license. Oh yeah, I passed and I'm looking forward to returning to TEAM Arizona for the Advanced Rider Course. ”

“I attended an Intro into Motorcycling class there within the last month. Our instructor, John, was super patient, extremely helpful, and a wealth of knowledge. I had developed an itch to learn how to ride a motorcycle, and this class has only barely whetted my appetite. I'm definitely looking forward to the Basic Rider Course to get my motorcycle endorsement. And beyond that, the other classes available can only help me get better. Super friendly folks. ”

“I have taken two courses with TEAM Arizona last year and loved each one. I started off by taking the Intro course in January as a gift from a family member that knew I was interested in getting my motorcycle endorsement. The instructor and facility were amazing. I returned a few months later to take the Basic Riders Course that allowed me to get my endorsement without worrying about taking a test at the MVD, very helpful!! As soon as I can carve out time to go back I would love to take some of the advanced riding courses.”

“This was a great course and I would recommend it to everyone who is currently riding or new riders. The instructors are very good and take the time to explain exactly what you need and help you develop your skills as a rider. It's worth the price for the class and I'm really glad I took the course. I definitely feel more confident as a rider and learned a ton of info. If you haven't done it yet, you should. Totally worth it!”

“I took the Basic Rider Course this October 2015. I had been wanting to get my license for a while and was referred this class by several people. It did not disappoint. My instructor, Jim Barnett, was awesome and he really made me feel comfortable while I learned the basic skills of motorcycle riding. I can't wait to take the Advanced Rider Course in the future. I definitely recommend the Basic Rider Course if you are thinking about getting a license. Totally worth it!! Thanks TEAM ARIZONA!!!”

“I've taken The Basic Rider Course, Advanced Riding Techniques, and multiple Skills Under the Lights courses with TEAM (all in the Gilbert location). They are AMAZING! I started off never having been the driver of a motorcycle and I'm now confident in my ability to control my bike as well as watch out for the people around me. The best part is going through many levels of training (my husband who has been riding 15+ years was able to come to Skills and learn a few things also). We've sent multiple friends/family members to TEAM and will continue to do so!”
