Roxy speaking is more helpful to a new rider than watching most bikers actually corner. She really explains it like a teacher teaching a subject. So helpful...
All this time i thought that if i go to the trails i would eventually learn cornering but you are 100% correct, being able to practice this on flat ground and gravel will build the muscle memory to apply this techniques on trails. Thank you!
Thank you, J, for being open and such an inspiration for sharing this with all of us! If you’d like to follow my proven drills, you’ll find them on my coaching site - you can simply follow from home and they are built up way more methodically than I could ever on UA-cam 😊 You will find them on Roxybike-coaching .com (I can’t link it directly, as yt has begun blocking direct links). Also, you’ll find a FREE Trackstand course there ❤
I got into mountain biking to train for Alpine skiing. I really appreciate your coaching style. Personally skiing and riding mountain bike XC, trail and downhill are complementary crossover spots. My favorite slogan is “ you got to do the drills to build the skills “
Thank you for another wonderfully informative and entertaining video. I love the way you teach. You explain things with greater detail and in a more relatable manner than other online mtb coaches. You have a fantastic mind. I much admire the way you think. Happy, happy New Year.
Hi Roxy I have been practicing body bike separation,the foot wedge and other fundamentals and it as made big difference you confidence and fun on the bike. Because my health I have limited time on the bike, I am so grateful 😊 so I gave so coffee support 🙏
Probably the first time I leave a comment on YT. After watching some of your videos, I feel that this is the right time to give a positive feedback. Just love your inspiring personality as much as the quality of the content you provide. As a piano player (also teacher) I know how important is to work on the fundamental skills, even when you are not a beginner anymore. Your videos are really on point, so thank you very very much! ♥ Soon I will consider donating
Dear Marco, thank you for this lovely comment. I am incredibly grateful for it, especially knowing that you don’t leave comments and also have a teaching background. So so happy to hear 😍🥰 Have a lovely evening and thank you for considering to donate/support me 😍 ~ Roxy
thank you for the video! really important to practice the basics! I used to try fancy advanced things and not allow enough time for basic skills. A year ago i realised WHY i had some fears, uncertanty on many things ... because i did not practice the basic stuff enough, at safe speeds, safe place. I did over 10 years biketrials but when i started MTB trails i realised i did not have good practice at cornering because at bike trials i was not using cornering much. trials is mostly static :) i like your videos and how you explain!
So true. Unfortunately, many people believe that trials is “much more complex” than biking so that a good trials biker will be a good mtb coach. However, in my opinion they are different sports and although SOME things transfer, many things don’t. Just like you said, cornering is one of them. Have you already checked my coaching site? I believe you will profit a lot from my FUNdamentals course - or if you are German from my course “der Festiger”, where I work with you personally to turn all this theoretical knowledge into bodily abilities 🙏💪
Woo, it's been a long winter! Time for some awesome drills like these to get my groove back on. I did these drills last summer and I'm excited to brush up on them again. So fun, and so helpful.
Thanks ever so much, Jeff! If you’d like to work with my proven drills to turn the explained knowledge into skills, then do check out www.Roxybike-Coaching.com Thank you for commenting! Roxy
I recently came across your channel, Roxy, and I am so happy for it. I have been the typical guy thinking I don't need skills coaching as I can figure things out myself. Kind of like the "I don't need the manual" type of thinking. Except, I ended up in hospital a few times because of it. Now I can attest that watching your coaching style and applying what you teach has improved my riding a heap and I thank you for that. I have subscribed to your channel as well.
Oh no, so sorry to hear you had to crash to find out - but I am grateful to have you here sharing your journey with us. Your comment will be helpful to many riders! Thank you!
Thanks a lot. If you*d like access to more drills and especially follow progressions in a logical order, then you'll find my proven drill on: roxybike.podia.com/mountain-bike-online-courses Grateful for you comment!
Hi Jose, thank you for your comment. Then I have something MUCH more useful, here: roxybike.podia.com/mtb-fundamentals-mini-course It's a compilation to my coaching secrets in easy-to-follow and structured drills, and you can optionally complement it with personal coaching with me. Have a lovely day!
I’ll be doing these drills, trackstand, manual, and bunny-hop practice all winter long...while working hard in the gym to increase my explosive power and vertical leap height. Thanks!
I have been Mtn biking for 30 years. Never had a class. These are awesome. So helpful even for someone who has been riding since 1990s. I ride a totally ridged frame and fork. Actually feel the control is much better with a ridged frame and fork.
You are so skilled! Roxy I didn't know you were an RLC coach. I'm a member and you just provided feedback on my video on FB. Thank you so much! I love your videos.
Roxy: Terrific as always! Many thanks! I would suggest also videoing yourself or having someone else watch you and offer their observations. Often times what I think I'm doing body position-wise and body-bike separation-wise is different from what I'm really doing.
I'm going to play around with the spiral drill, among the others as well. Glad you mentioned different foot positions for turns and that there is no absolute position. Thanks for another excellent video!
Well thank you, I really like your channel, this one is by far the most sympathetic and technically advance for me... getting Old and Magic is going back to basics ! State Safe :)
I have watched a lot of great videos on cornering here on YT and I believe this is the few that take the time to explain the intricacies of cornering in this detail e.g. slow speed cornering requires a different approach versus high speed cornering. I guess it's not all about leaning the bike as far as you can go to corner :)
I agree when you say that you don't really learn on the trails--maybe learn the terrain. The skills that you learned on the flat ground successfully is applied on the trails. I discovered how deficient my skills are and my need to learn cornering skills every time I encounter tight switchbacks.

thanks so much! I suck at cornering man! Can you do a tutorial on how to bring your bike horizontally forward with a push(like it's done when attempting drops, or to get the back wheel over something) And a happy new year!
Hi Roxy, thank you very much for the videos. That one on body position helped me remind myself of how I used to ride my bike some 20 year ago (and forgot since) and things start to make sense again. Also, trackstand is my friend. Nowadays, the time spent with my kids toddling on their bikes around the block is not a missed training session for me anymore. My cornering-related question is this one: Is there some preferred way to get around the need for the saddle to be low? E.g. in a XC or marathon race without a dropper post. I tried a few styles of wrapping myself around/over/through my skyscraper seatpost, but - obviously - they either limit my range of motion (thereby compromising continuity (of pedal/body/bike position) and confidence) or... well... limit my range of motion in some other way. I guess I just kinda answered myself, but perhaps there's still some trick or general piece of advice that I'm missing.
Hi Jan, no, you've already answered the Q yourself, riding a high saddle always comes with a cost, which is why actually most pros have already upgraded to a dropper and the trend is clear... The skyscraper will limit your ROM and/or jeopardize the fundamentals of stability, no matter what... It's just anatomy + biomechanics... Sorry. If you'd like to work with me to find solutions with the least possible disadvantages, though, then you'll find my online course (structured drills) and coaching offers here: roxybike.podia.com/ Enjoy practicing with your kids and thank you for the answer!
Oh no, sorry to hear! If you’d like to work on your FUNdamentals to avoid this in future, do check out my Fundamentals course on www.Roxybike-coaching.com Hope you weren’t injured!
Your videos have been so helpful! I've gotten "stuck" thinking your outside food always needs to go down. Out of curiosity, how wide are your handlebars? Do you think bar width can also have a big impact?
Hi Christine, so happy to hear! Oh yes, bar width is a huge thing. I ride 72 at 158 (5‘1“). If you’d like to work on your FUNdamentals with me - which is actually the biggest part of cornering success - do check out my new English mini course: roxybike.podia.com/mtb-fundamentals-mini-course It will bring more structure into your practice ☺️ Sending much love and gratitude for your comment! 🧚♀️ Roxy

Hi Michelle, you're welcome. No, not really, because to seperate the bike from the body, i.e. to be able to move around on the bike/allow the bike to move below you (which we need to stay balanced in the bike and corner), you need to stand up.
