Setting the scene

Mountain biking is more than just a great sport and a whole lot of fun!

It is a transformative force in combatting the mental and physical wellbeing challenges many of us face in an increasingly digital and artificial world, shaped by comfort, convenience and instant gratification!

Trail Therapy Programs

Build mental wellbeing, resilience and capability through mountain biking and nature connection.

Do you ever feel overwhelmed, stressed, confused or disconnected from your mind, body, community or nature? Trail Therapy is about getting that connection back.

We combine self-managed and guided MTB coaching, strategic psychotherapy and outdoor adventure programs with the dynamic flow of mountain biking to help you clear mental clutter, build capability, boost resilience and reconnect with the people and places that matter most.

Building Community, Inclusion & Conservation

Making mountain biking more accessible, more sustainable and more fun.

We also collaborate across a range of MTB-related community engagement and environmental stewardship activities – such as Gravity Adaptive Incorporated and Trash Free Trails.

Our goal is to expose more people to the benefits that mountain biking offers, so we are always looking for ways to make mountain biking more accessible, more sustainable and more fun.

Trails are part of who we are and keep us healthy. We must return the favour.

Through our Trash Free Trails community hub, event support and open-source TRASH FREE philosophy, we amplify nature connection by facilitating active care for wild places.

'Choose Change' book

Written as a practical, future-oriented guide to personal transformation, Choose Change breaks down the mechanics of how we form habits, how self-limiting beliefs hold us back, and how to actively reprogram your decision-making.

Hypnotherapy

Starting with a chat about what's going on, you'll identify and understand the behaviours and beliefs that are holding you back. Then using a subconscious and/or nature-based 'therapeutic intervention' you'll break or reprogram that pattern of thinking and activate the skills and resources you already have in you to change the way things are to the way you want them to be.
