Learn To Pedal Classes

Ages 3-7 (2 separate Class options based on age)

Few of life’s milestones are as memorable as learning to ride a bike. But all too often the process to get there is full of anxiety, unnecessary struggle, and tears.

But not at Buddy Pegs! Here, children love every stage of learning to ride thanks to our incredible Buddy Pegs certified coaches who weave our unique Learn To Pedal curriculum into play-based challenges and games.

Over these sessions, students first learn the fundamentals of balancing a bike without pedals and without training wheels thanks to our no-pedal glide method of teaching that helps develop the muscle memory and confidence needed to pedal independently.

Pre- K LTP Prerequisites: 

  • Child must be 3 years old

  • Child must be gliding confidently already

  • Child must be interested in pedaling – we do not force pedaling at this age 

Do you have a 2 year-old or a 3-4 year-old that is still getting used to their balance bike and not yet gliding comfortably?  Check out our Balance Bike classes for a few sessions first!  It’s the perfect starting point for younger children to learn to love the bike.

For children 8 and up we strongly recommend Private Lessons.
