Disabilities and Special Needs Coaching

At Christchurch Cycle Coaching, we truly believe that the joy of cycling should be accessible to everyone.

That's why we offer specialised 1-on-1 coaching specifically designed for individuals in Christchurch with physical and intellectual disabilities. Our experienced coach, Paul, is well-regarded for his adaptable coaching style and his willingness to meet diverse needs, creating an exceptionally positive and inclusive environment. Paul has helped people of all ages and abilities to ride bikes confidently for the last 25 years, starting from volunteering in this space in 1998-2000.



Paul is skilled at guiding and teaching cyclists of all ages, from complete beginners learning to ride from scratch to those who benefit from guided riding to refine their technique. He takes a caring, instructive, and compassionate approach to help individuals enjoy cycling and find personal challenge. Paul has worked with various organisations like IHC and Parafed Canterbury, and individuals with Down Syndrome, Autism, ADHD, and Cerebral Palsy. Our commitment is to empower you to overcome any hurdles, build crucial confidence, and embrace a truly rewarding cycling experience, gaining independence and a sense of accomplishment.
