Skills development is a process for everyone; male, female, young, old, beginner, intermediate, all the way to the pro level. It is really nice to have a trained eye give feedback to make gains. I have learned a lot from Angi, and will continue to recommend her to everyone I know!”

“I recently took a private lesson and continuing education course with Radical Roots MTB during our time in Bellingham. Angi, our instructor, is a legend in the industry and one of the best instructors in the country. Her communication style is welcoming yet professional. We were able to dive into many topics where other instructors get tripped up or are less confident. The information was presented clearly from both a rider standpoint and a professional instructor. It was awesome to learn from her and the magic that she gives out in Bellingham.”
— Evan Puglia, Co-Owner Sedona MTB Academy (Sedona, AZ)
“Angi is the shred zen master! She is always the first person that comes to mind when a fellow rider asks for a recommendation for a coach. Angi’s ability to break stuff down in a clear manner makes progression happen seamlessly. She has a really fun but professional approach to coaching.”
— Amanda Bryan (Bellingham, WA)

“Angi is a knowledgeable and experienced mountain bike skills coach that has a coaching style that resonates with beginners and shredders all the same. Not to mention her bike mechanical prowess, making her a top choice of coach to have on hand for all SRAM Women’s Program events and clinics.”
— Sara Jarrell, SRAM Women’s Program Coordinator (Colorado Springs, CO)
“Working with Angi for the first time was a real eye opening experience because she made learning easy and fun. I went from being terrified of getting airborne to hitting small drops and jumps - all in a weekend. It’s been great having her as a coach over the course of a few years because I’ve gotten to grow so much as a rider with every session. Angi’s ability to break things down and explain them in detail while isolating each piece of the puzzle in her demonstrations is like pausing a video, making it so much easier for students of all levels to digest and understand. Plus her positive attitude and cheerleader-energy keeps student’s spirits up while they are trying new things.”
— Carolyn Baldwin, Owner of Flownetic MTB Skills (Atlanta, GA)
“My background is education, and in my current work, I spend a lot of time with teachers and trainers. The best teachers are people who have a real passion for their field or discipline that they pass on to their students. It’s apparent in Angi’s coaching style that she not only loves to ride mountain bikes and be outdoors, she adores helping her students progress. Her enthusiasm is contagious and fun. She has the ability as a teacher to describe the same point several different ways with the right blend of encouragement and instruction. Angi’s a gifted teacher who can recognize a teachable moment with a student and push them gently toward real progression as a mountain biker.”
— Alyson Indrunas (Bellingham, WA)
“There are few people out there who bring the same level of energy, enthusiasm and straight up SKILLZ that Angi brings to the trails. Angi is a top notch rider and skills coach and simply put, she gets it. She gets how to explain things in a way that make sense, she gets how to make it fun and not intimidating and she gets how to provide feedback in a way that is constructive and immensely helpful. Whether you are brand new to the sport of mountain biking or an experience rider looking to take it up to another level, Angi has what it takes to get you there.”
