Pedals Ready: Inclusive Cycling Lessons for SEND Students
At Pedals Ready, we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to experience the joy of cycling. We are proud to offer specialized cycling lessons designed for students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment where all abilities are celebrated.
Tailored Cycling Lessons for Every Rider
We understand that each student is unique, with their own set of strengths and challenges. Our experienced instructors work closely with students and their families to tailor lessons that meet individual needs. Whether it's their first time on two wheels or they need extra support to build confidence, our one-to-one lessons ensure every rider progresses at their own pace.
Supporting a Range of Conditions
At Pedals Ready, we have successfully worked with students who have various conditions, including:
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
We recognize that students with autism may have sensory sensitivities, difficulty with motor coordination, or anxiety around new activities. Our instructors use gentle encouragement, patience, and clear communication to create a calm and structured environment where students can feel comfortable and confident while learning.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
Students with ADHD may benefit from a dynamic and engaging learning experience. Our lessons are designed to keep students actively involved, using short, varied activities to maintain focus and excitement. We aim to make cycling an enjoyable and empowering experience.
Cerebral Palsy
For students with cerebral palsy, we understand that motor coordination and muscle strength may pose challenges. Our lessons focus on helping students build their confidence and skills on standard bicycles, gradually working towards greater independence and mobility.
Our Approach to Inclusive Cycling
We are committed to making cycling accessible for all. Our SEND cycling lessons focus on:
One-to-One Support
Each student receives personalized attention, with an instructor who understands their specific needs and learning style.
Patience and Positivity
Our instructors bring patience, empathy, and positivity to each lesson, creating a supportive environment where students can thrive and build confidence.
Flexible Pace
We understand that progress looks different for everyone. Our goal is to help students achieve personal milestones, whether that's mastering balance, learning to pedal, or feeling comfortable riding in different environments.
Training on Standard Bicycles
We focus on training students to ride standard bicycles. Our lessons are structured to help students overcome challenges and build their skills on regular bikes.
