TEAM Arizona Motorcycle Rider Training Centers - Sierra Vista

Fantastic experience: I will say that the price is a bit steep......but my overall experience was amazing. Kate and Bobby were not only professional but also very invested in making sure the class really grasped what was being taught. Highly recommend for those looking to get into riding to sign up for this class!

Fantastic experience: Just took basic rider course even though I've been riding for years and I am amazed at how many things I've been doing incorrectly.Steve Paladini was amazing!!! I recommend this and the other courses even if you've been riding forever or never ridden. A gentleman in the course had never riden, by the end of 1st day on bike, he was riding with minimal stalling. How AWESOME is that??!!

Fantastic experience: Great experience. I learned lots and now have much more respect for the motorcyclists and more confidence in my capabilities. The heat was a bit much but we made it work. Highly recommend. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: Fun and learn things at the same time. Coaches are professional, clear instructions. I learned more in the course and gained more confidence in riding my bike. Recommended

Positive experience: The guy who runs it and one of the instructors was nice and knew what they were talking about but the woman instructor even said she was uncomfortable riding herself. If you aren't comfortable riding you shouldn't be teaching or judging others EDIT: Editing the post since it wont let me reply, i have 8 years experience and took the MSF class. My fiance on the other hand was in this weekend class. If needed please reply again and i can edit with intructor name

Fantastic experience: Team Arizona/ Sierra Vista I recently took my basic riders course and got my motorcycle endorsement in Sierra Vista on 07/13 and 07/14. The cost of the class was a little pricy but way worth it. The instructors were awesome and patient. I have Bobby and Kate teaching our class. They were able to give great advice and made the whole experience fun. I can not recommend them enough. Do yourself a favor and learn from the best!

Fantastic experience: Was a great course with 2 great instructors definitely recommend

Fantastic experience: Very educational and informative class! The instructor Kate, took her time and patiently went through the skills and safety precautions required. This class answered all my questions and left me feeling like a more confident rider. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: Great experience in the classroom and in the range. The instructor was more than helpful and very knowledgeable. The instructor was patient with the class, while explaining what needed to be done he gave verbal and physical examples. Highly recommend taking the class.

Fantastic experience: Excellent course with very knowledgeable and helpful instructors. Steve was great and provided amazing advice and insight into riding. I recommend anyone who wants to ride to take the course.

Fantastic experience: I loved this and I’ll be taking more courses from them! Helped me tons!

Fantastic experience: My wife and I took the 3 wheel class. Our instructor was Steve Paladini. Being older than Steve, I had certain challenges. Steve worked with me, encouraged me, and assisted me. As the course progressed, so did my confidence. I passed both written and riding tests, as did my wife. I learned so much, I'd like to bolster my skills and retake the class. Steve stresses safety, safety, and safety. This man is an awesome instructor. Thank you Steve. Thank you Team Arizona.

Fantastic experience: This course is well worth the price. Whether you pass or fail the skills test, it is worth it just for the experience and having the rider coaches there. My Coaches were Steve and Ron, and they were very informative, gave good constructive feedback, and we’re very patient. Overall a wonderful class for learning and great to build confidence and safe riding skills.

Fantastic experience: Just took and passed the beginners course with Steve P. and it was a great time and a humbling experience. You owe it to yourself, your family and to other motorists to take this course. It will make a seasoned rider better and make a new rider more confident and aware. Professional, courteous and very interactive.

Fantastic experience: Steve Paladini is the "model" that all other instructors should follow. Unbelievable depth of knowledge, and just the right blend of seriousness and humor. If he is not your highest paid instructor, he SHOULD be. He was my lead instructor on the BRC last year and again on this 3-wheeled BRC. A pleasure from start to finish.

Fantastic experience: Personally took the course, and even with prior experience learned something new while having some fun.

Fantastic experience: I took their class in Sierra vista az this weekend. I was a complete novice and had never ridden before. The instructors Travis and Cecil were very patient and encouraging to ensure that everyone was challenged and successful. I loved this class and will be taking more!

Fantastic experience: I attended this course on the recommendation of a family friend and I am so glad I decided to do it. Overall great experience. It felt safe, fun, engaging, and like I was actually learning things. Our weekend’s instructor, Travis, was extremely helpful, nice, patient, and encouraging. 5/5 will definitely go to more advanced courses down the line.

Fantastic experience: I took this course with genuinely no experience. I wanted to ride a motorcycle for the fun of it and this course was brilliant for teaching me exactly what to do in a very comfortable setting. During my first course, I crashed during the first riding day and went home. I was able to easily reschedule at no cost and come again. During my second course, I slid out during my test so I was failed that day, but they offer you a free retest. I came back for a third time after weeks of not riding and the coaches spent the morning making sure we were comfortable and knew what we were doing. I am happy to say that I did pass on the third try and if you're needing that extra push I hope my review is it for you. Every penny was worth the quality of this course and I knew that if anything went awry, I was in the best hands possible.

Fantastic experience: Steve is an awesome instructor. Learned a lot and appreciate the critique

Fantastic experience: Steve was absoultely awesome. I learned a ton and now feel ready to purchase and ride a motorcycle. Class was paced well and everyone stuck together. The dad jokes were a plus. Sign up with Steve. Learn to ride.

Fantastic experience: Steve and Travis were amazing! They were patient and are very experienced. Steve made sure the classroom portion wasn’t boring. The program is a really amazing course!!

Fantastic experience: Steve and Travis did a wonderful job helping the entire class. Their calm demeanor kept everyone comfortable with everything they did even when mistakes were made. They encouraged everyone to have a positive attitude no matter the situation presented. I strongly recommend TEAM Arizona Motorcycle Rider Training Centers for all no matter the skill level or riding experience. Thank you very much!

Fantastic experience: This was a great and fun experience. Steve and Siesel (I don't know how to spell his name) was professionals and taught the class very well. they give great and honest feedback. incredibly helpful. If you are wanting to get your motorcycle license, then I would go with these guys.

Fantastic experience: Former dirt rider here, coming back to motorcycling in the street world. The training was excellent, with a manageable class size that enabled Steve and Travis to advise on individual issues at a personal level. Definitely planning on coming back for the Advanced Course.

Fantastic experience: I took the three wheel safety course. Steve was great. Gave all of us confidence to ride the Can-Am Ryker. Very knowledgeable. Kept everyone at ease.

Fantastic experience: LOVED THIS COURSE! I learned so much, and really had a blast. This course truly gave me the confidence and understanding to make me feel comfortable on the road. The instructors were professional, VERY knowledgeable, and fun. I can’t recommend this enough!

Fantastic experience: Steve and Paul were fantastic riding coaches with more patience than I could ever have. Hopefully they’ll still be around whenever I’m ready to take the Confident Rider’s course

Fantastic experience: I attended this course with very little riding experience. The riding coach, Steve P. was awesome! He was so knowledgeable, patient and encouraging. My husband has been riding for years and I wanted to be able to ride my own motorcycle. I would highly recommend the TEAM Arizona SV Basic Rider course.

Fantastic experience: Excellent class. Professional, knowledgeable instructor. Learned all the basics of riding a 3wmc, with emphasis on safety.

Fantastic experience: I took this class like three weeks ago with Steve. I’m over 60 now and I was super nervous, plus no experience at all. But wow, was an amazing course! My class was for a three wheels motorcycle. Steve has a LOT of experience, knowledge and patient. He really knows what he is doing and make you feel comfortable. He is very clear with the instructions plus he always show you first so you feel confident about what you have do. Very professional! Great experience! I highly recommend this course. Thank you so much Steve! I’m enjoying my 3-wheels motorcycle!

Fantastic experience: Steve and Paul are excellent. They were very patient and gave tailored feedback based on each rider’s performance during the two days of riding. Classroom portion was straight forward, you left the classroom having a better appreciation for how to treat the road as a motorcyclist since you don’t have a cage built around you like those riding in a car. I was an inexperienced motorcyclist, with no riding experience. The pace of the class became gradually more challenging but also more fun as lessons built upon themselves. Even classmates who had off-road experience, or who had not been on a bike in years were learning and getting feedback to break bad habits. This is the basic riders course I recommend to get yourself ready to ride (first timer or experienced). A few years ago I tried to get my basic riders course done with a different “course” in the area, but they were not as patient as Steve or Paul. Steve and Paul also are very personable Instructors who want to see you succeed, but also to make sure you can demonstrate the basics to not hurt yourself or others on the road. It’s worth the price and time, do yourself a solid and pick a course with these gents.

Fantastic experience: The instructions are very professional and patient with new riders. They make sure you understand everything both inside and outside of the classroom. I highly recommend this for new riders

Fantastic experience: I want to start off by saying this course was amazing I came to this course with my two boys not knowing anything worried about if I was going to be the only one not knowing how to even start a bike nevertheless get on one the instructors where are unbelievable they made me feel confident they made me feel like I can do this and lo and behold I can without their patience and I mean patience I am able to ride with my head held high I really appreciate the way they take time to explain every little detail which makes me feel more confident than I did in the very beginning of the course I want to say for those out there who don't know how to ride this is the place to teach you how to ride one safely to comfortably and three confidence will build quicker than you think once again thank you I feel safe with me and my family riding together thank you thank you and thank you God bless and forever ride safe.... Barbara v and family.

Fantastic experience: Travis and Paul are excellent teachers. They had patience and were very positive and encouraging while still correcting what needed to be accomplished and improved upon. Looking forward to taking more classes to become a better rider. But at the beginner level I feel confident to ride and keep improving my skills. So excited to be out on the road. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: Great class! Travis and Paul were awesome!! Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: This was the best course for basic motorcycle riders. The coaches/instructors were very knowledgeable and help full, the small class size made it easy to practice the skills that they taught and they were always ready with tips to help you. Steve and Paul, the instructors, were pleasant and encouraging. I would recommend this cours to any one who wants to start motorcycle riding and for those who have been out of the sport and want to get back into it, like myself

Fantastic experience: In a few words, informative, encouraging, and supportive. Like having a TV dad teach you how to ride a motorcycle instead of a bicycle. There are challenges for sure, especially for someone like me who hasn't ridden in years. But if you're willing to follow your guide, TEAM Sierra Vista will show you the way to safe and fun motorcycle riding. I wish there were more classes available in my area!

Fantastic experience: My wife and I took this class together. I wanted to get my endorsement to be legal and we wanted her to learn the basics as she had never rode a motorcycle. We both learned a lot. I highly recommend this place. We had lots of fun! The trainers were fun and very passionate about what they do. They seem to truly want you to be safe and enjoy the experience. It you ever offer more advanced classes in Sierra Vista we would both be down for a few more classes. Thanks!

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend this class to anyone who wants to learn how to ride and learn the rules of the road. Instructors are very knowledgeable and friendly.

Fantastic experience: I loved this experience. I came in knowing nothing and walked away able to ride a motorcycle safely. I did not do so well but there was good communication and a retest was set up. This was about giving proper knowledge and confidence and it worked. I feel safe and informed. I don't know how else to explain the quality of the content and the excellence of the instructors. I recommended this to my family members already and think anyone interested should take the basic riders course or other courses, I will be.

Fantastic experience: Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic! Course was clearly laid out from the book knowledge to the demos and skills taught. Would highly recommend if you’re looking to get your Motorcycle qualification.

Fantastic experience: I was nervous being over 50. But the experience was awesome and the coaches were professional and informative. Best of all I learned the skills and passed the evaluations!

Fantastic experience: The experience was amazing the coaches were professional and helped a lot did my class in Sierra Vista

Fantastic experience: Heatherlee is a very patient and detailed coach. Made sure to walk the course with me and show examples of her riding on the course. Definitely taught me the importance of how to be a safe rider. She is great on teaching the right way to ride and how to correct bad habits that a new rider might have. I am grateful that she was my coach.

Fantastic experience: This was a great experience! I had wanted to be able to ride with my son and he suggested that I take the proper steps to learn safely and correctly. I am glad that I did. Steve, our instructor, took the time to ensure that he was personally involved with each rider; coaching the individual at each step. The experience helped each one of us to ensure that WE ARE responsible for our conduct and respect for other motorcyclists and automobile drivers as well. This course prepared me to ride safely and with an alertness for proper defensive riding. I plan on taking the advanced course in the near future!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic teachers and curriculum! Even as an experienced rider, my skills measurably improved after training with Coach Steve.

Fantastic experience: Excellent instruction for the Lee Parks Total Control class, both by Bill Seltzer for the online/classroom portion as well as by Steve Paladini for the on bike range portion of the class. I would highly recommend this advanced level of riding education to anyone who is looking to improve their skill-set, and this company as well as it's instructor are top notch.

Fantastic experience: I attended this training for confidence with a purchase of a new motorcycle, Steve is the best at teaching you everything u want and need to know to master a motorcycle, great fun as well

Fantastic experience: The instructors are patient, knowledgeable, and out right awesome. They want to see everyone succeed. If you want to learn how to ride this is the place to do it!

Fantastic experience: Amazing teachers that took my knowledge of motorcycles and riding from being very nervous and unsure to becoming a novice rider! Had a great time and learned so much!

Fantastic experience: I'm only giving this 5 starts becuase I cant give it 6 Thoroughly impressed with my entire experience with Team Arizona's staff and training materials. I took the 2 day Basic riding course recently and absolutely loved the experience. Our classroom sessions were taught by Taylor, who was extremely knowledgeable and professional. Taylor taught in such a way that he wouldnt loose our attention or just drone on through the class. For our time actually riding the motorcycles for the class it was Taylor accompanied by Paul, also very knowledgeable and professional. Both instructors encouraged questions and interaction throughout the course. WORTH EVERY PENNY! Take this class

Fantastic experience: Steve is a good trainer ! as a rider in a mc only took class for my endorsement and insurance discount. plus my Harley dealer threw it in with the bike. he teaches exactly the things to keep you alive out there! things that you will only learn after years of riding ! trust me take the class stay alive ! a must for any new or old rider ! the class was even good for me . reminded me a few things. now I am looking at the advanced classes not only for me but my rider. its only a investment into your safety ! as long as you don't give up ! He will not give up on you. for new riders he makes it very simple

Fantastic experience: I took this class with no road bike experience. This class provided a lot of information delivered in a fun and friendly way that made learning easy, and led to immediate confidence when on the motorcycle. Steve, and Paul, did a great job and I'd encourage their class to anyone experienced or not. This class exceeded expectations and I can't wait to to ride again.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I that are over 60 years in age, took the Confident Rider Course with Steve Paladini. He was an excellent instructor and we learned many new techniques and fixed a few bad habits. I would highly recommend TEAM Arizona.

Fantastic experience: Excellent training for a beginner student. I recommend it. The instructors are great. knowledgeable, great attitude, and lots of fun learning.

Fantastic experience: this was a very good course I learned a lot from the instructors thank you ps i had lots of fun

Fantastic experience: They took the time to explain and show us what to do and what was required, so that it was easy to understand. Be sure to wear sunblock, because it is the desert after-all.

Fantastic experience: I took the Basic Riding Course to be able to get an endorsement and receive my license, but what I got out of the course was so much more the team was professional and gave fun positive reinforcement to help build my confidence and skills. I would recommend this course to anyone from not having any experience riding a motorcycle to experienced riders.

Fantastic experience: Steve was an awesome trainer/coach he was very understanding and helped out in every way possible I could not have asked for a better instructor. He made learning fun and easy and I would definitely love to learn more from the man, he is very experienced and knows a lot and it shows. The course itself is hands down the best, every motorcyclist should take this course to learn, and learning with Steve makes it 100x better. Thank you Steve!!

Fantastic experience: I took the class to get to try out the cam am motorcycles, trying to make a decision on buying one. I really enjoyed the training and Steve was a great teacher to say the least. I learned a lot and recommend this training to anyone wanting to ride motorcycles of any kind for they have a class on two wheel motorcycles also. Thanks Steve for the hard work you put into the training class, It a was pleasure for me that I will never forget. And Steve whatever you get paid for the training I'm sure is not enough for what you are giving to the students. Thanks again.

Fantastic experience: Having recently moved to Arizona, I discovered that a CanAm requires a motorcycle endorsement so looked at a number of places that could get me the training/testing that I needed. I opted to do a one-on-one training with TEAM Arizona and am glad that I did. The field and class room settings with a bunch of other students looks good, however, I like the extra hard-work, attention and thoroughness that a one-on-one session gives. Steve Paladini, my instructor, is an amazing thorough guy, who pushed me hard to increase my knowledge and skills. He cares about MC safety, the safety of the student and strives to make sure that when you walk (or ride) out of his class, your skills are enhanced. Steve has a tremendous amount of heart and talent. I'd give 10 stars if I could.

Fantastic experience: Great, fun, helpful. Enjoyed the experience and will probably take the Level 1 Advanced Rider Course within the next. Fun experience after being away for five decades.

Fantastic experience: I took the Can Am class with zero riding experience and absolutely loved it. Our instructor, Steve Paladini, is not just an expert with countless years of experience, he also knows AZ law and keeps the student engaged with real life stories and a great sense of humor. The class was well structured, the Can Am Spyders brand-new, great set up, clean and safe environment. I felt comfortable, safe, and treated with the best customer service possible. Overall grade A+

Fantastic experience: Took the 2 wheel Basic Rider Course in October, 2018 with Vic Paladini. Having never ridden before, I learned tons and gained the confidence I needed to get going on my own bike. Very comfortable, no-pressure atmosphere and freaking awesome fun. They will help you get your license AND a discount on your insurance! I highly recommend TEAM Arizona to anyone looking to ride a motorcycle and will be returning to them when I'm ready for more advanced riding techniques. A+++

Fantastic experience: Great class, great instructor (Steve) recommend it highly!

Fantastic experience: Amazing instructor. Even though I have rode bikes when I was younger I learned a great deal under his tutelage. He was very thorough and professional. I would recommend him to anyone learning to ride.

Fantastic experience: Here’s a test of professionalism. Does the instructor have a reputation in the community in which he or she is an expert? How does the instructor interact with others in that wider world? If the instructor is Steve, the answers to the above reflect his excellence in the classroom and on the road. In the several months since I took the Can-Am course with him, I’ve seen him at biker gatherings and club meetings. He is generous with his knowledge, yet has a light footprint. When asked for input he has spot-on input. Riding he role-models what he teaches. In the classroom and on the practice track the man is an expert in teaching all of the concepts and techniques riders need to be safe and have fun. Beginner to advanced riders, we are all better off because Steve is among us on two wheels or three.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I are two seniors who never have ridden a motorcycle but wanted to ride a 3wheeler. We were afraid we couldn’t do it. Thanks to the instructor Steve Palidino at Sierra Vista TEAM Az training March 3 and 4 2018 we learned that yes we can and it’s a whole lot of fun! Thank you again Steve for your professionalism, patience and great teaching ability. We highly recommend Sierra Vista and Steve for anyone who wants to learn to ride any kind of motorcycle.

Fantastic experience: I recently took the confident rider course here in Sierra Vista. The RiderCoach Mr. Paladini was extremely knowledgeable and professional. He tailored the class to my motorcycle and taught me so much! The course itself was perfect for advancing riding ability and was joined with Mr. Paladini’s experience made the class overall extremely worth it!

Fantastic experience: I want to thank Steve Paladini for his excellent instructions during our recent 3-wheel Training Class. Steve had tremendous knowledge on all areas concerning motorcycles, both 2 wheel and 3 wheel. When explaining why you should do various thing, he gave excellent examples or reasons why what he was saying was the best alternative. I have been riding Spyders since 2010 and had developed some bad habits which Steve pointed out and explained how to correct those problems. I feel I'm a much better ride now, after taking the course and having Steve as my instructor. Thank You Steve Paladini

Fantastic experience: Attended the 3-Wheel course in Sierra Vista. Steve was very knowledgeable and patient.

Fantastic experience: Loved this course, gave me so much more confidence on my Can am. Looking forward to getting my bike on the road!

Fantastic experience: I took the Can-Am 3 wheel motorcycle course 02-03 Dec 17 with Mr. Steve Paladini, and it by far, was one of the best courses I've ever taken. Steve's professionalism, knowledge and genuine passion for coaching students, goes above and beyond that of all others. Thank you for an awesome experience. I look forward to taking other courses under your leadership. V/R Willie Henderson, Thunder Mountain Green Knights Military Motorcycle member.

Fantastic experience: Steve with Team Arizona taught me how to ride 3 years ago and I have been riding every since, 16,000 miles so far, including a more than 2 week trip cross country and overland! Thanks to Team Arizona for both the courses that I took with you they have made me a more competent and safer rider!

Fantastic experience: What an awesome way to spend a weekend! Thanks to Steve and his patience, humor and thoroughness, I passed the course with flying colors!!

Fantastic experience: I am a new rider. I had some friends talk me into getting a motorcycle. They also said that I should take a motorcycle safety class before I ride. I am so glad I did! I learned so much! I would recommend that anyone that is even thinking of a motorcycle to take this class! The instructors are great and very patient.

Fantastic experience: I took the 2-wheel Basic Rider Course here in Sierra Vista with TEAM Arizona and absolutely loved it. Since I am older and had never ridden, I was very apprehensive about making a fool of myself, dropping the motorcycle, and not passing the knowledge and riding test to get my license. But the instructor had over 28-years of motorcycle training experience! His people skills, professionalism, and in-depth knowledge made all the difference in the world for me! As promised, I had "serious fun" as my instructor knew exactly how to build my confidence which quickly increased my rate of learning and riding enjoyment. Too bad the highest review can be only 5 stars! This course saves lives, is fun, got me a motorcycle insurance discount, gave me the knowledge I need to know what to look for in a bike, and should be mandatory to get your license.

Fantastic experience: I had a wonderful time and learned so much about safety and very useful information. I would highly recommend this course, very organized and knowledgable instructor.

Fantastic experience: 1: Attended the 2-day, Can-Am 3-Wheel course in November 2017. 2: Class was professionally run by an experienced instructor who was able to explain the differences (good or bad) between 2 & 3 wheel MC's. 3: Discounted price from Can-Am was hard to pass up. 4: The track/training range was perfect for new 3-wheel riders. If an advanced course becomes available or I purchase a 3-wheel MC, I would not hesitate to take that course again.

Fantastic experience: I’ve taken both the 2-wheel and 3-wheel basic courses and thoroughly enjoyed both. First-rate instruction, quality curriculum and ample practical range riding experience lessons. I highly recommend these classes and look forward to taking additional training here.

Fantastic experience: MSF is the BEST. My friend and I attended your school on 9/19/15 and 9/20/15.We took the course to learn to ride. This course is very enjoyable.The ridercoach Steve Paladini was very motivating.We learned all the skills for safety,operation, riding ,and to keep learning and enjoying to ride :)))))

Fantastic experience: Most people probably take this course to satisfy the requirement to ride on a military base, or to get their license without the MVD test. Well I would recommend that people take this course for fun. If you don't own a bike or have never ridden, this is a great way to spend a weekend! I enjoyed it very much, and I learned a lot while simultaneously unlearning bad habits.
