Roxy Bike Coaching – MTB Coaching on the Costa Blanca, Spain
Neuroscience-based MTB skills coaching for adults – BICP Level 3 & MIAS MBL2 coach
About
Looking for MTB coaching on the Costa Blanca? Coach Roxy – known online as “Ride & Inspire” – is a German mountain bike skills coach who runs most of her in-person sessions near Benidorm in south-east Spain, with summer coaching in Germany and Austria too.
Roxy’s approach is different from a typical skills clinic: she combines mountain bike technique with neuroscience, motor learning and mental training, and focuses on adult riders. Her coaching explains why a skill works, not just what to do – and helps riders build confidence step by step, safely.

Roxy is one of the most qualified MTB skills coaches in Europe. Her coaching qualifications include:
- BICP Level 3 Advanced Skills Instructor (Bike Instructor Certification Program), and trained as a BICP international instructor trainer
- MIAS Mountain Bike Leader Level 2 for technical terrain

- DIMB Skills Instructor (Germany) and WRSV licensed MTB guide C-Trainer (BDR/DOSB)
- Austrian Cycling Association D-Trainer licence for bike park and freeride guiding
- Certified sports mental coach and Neuromentaltrainer®
Roxy’s story
Roxy’s path into coaching started badly: as a new rider she crashed face-first into a rock during a beginner skills clinic, and fear kept her off technical trails for a long time. After many clinics that didn’t help, she began researching how adults really learn movement skills – and taught herself the skills she had almost given up on.
That experience shaped everything she does today. She has worked with thousands of riders, trained coaches internationally, and has been featured by Singletracks magazine for her clear, science-based way of teaching. Her YouTube channel and podcast, Ride & Inspire, share free tips with riders around the world.
MTB coaching on the Costa Blanca: what she offers
- Private in-person coaching – one-to-one, as a couple or with a small group of friends, focusing on the small details that limit your control and confidence.
- Multi-day coaching – in-person coaching is booked as a programme rather than a single short session, so there is time to really change how you ride.
- Coaching at your location – riders and clubs can also fly Roxy in to coach on their home trails.
- Online courses – structured drill programmes you can practise at home or on your local trails.
- Instructor training – Roxy also trains other coaches.
Who it’s for
Roxy’s coaching is designed for adult riders – from nervous beginners and riders who have had a bad crash, to experienced riders and racers who want to fix a specific skill such as cornering, drops, manuals or trackstands. Her clients include national champions as well as riders who simply want to enjoy the trails without fear.
Why the Costa Blanca?
The mountains behind Benidorm offer dry, rocky trails and mild weather for much of the year, which makes the Costa Blanca a great place for skills coaching in spring, autumn and winter, when many Alpine areas are closed by snow.
Tips before your coaching
- Tell Roxy what you want to improve – a clear goal (corners, drops, steep descents) makes every session more effective.
- Bring your own bike if you can, set up the way you normally ride it.
- Plan several days – skills stick much better with practice between sessions.
- Try her free drills first – her free trackstand course is a good way to get to know her teaching style.
