Will cost you a few bob to get BCF training. Courses are only held every so often and are normally booked up. Dont want to pee on you fire. You will have to be CRB checked as working with kids. From what I understand the basic starting courses are about nutrition/diet etc. You are the source of much progression from riders on here. I wish you the best of luck, but just warning of the RED TAPE that will come your way.

If you want I will send you the contact details for Alastair our local BCF coach. He should be able to give you all the info you need or point you in the right direction. :daumenhoch:
