Toddler Balance Bike Class

Balance, stride, glide and play together.

Balance-bike adventures for ages 3–5

A playful, coach-led balance-bike class in Prospect Park for children ages 3–5. Little riders build confidence through movement games, short challenges and time to try again at their own pace.

Children practice getting comfortable on a balance bike, striding, gliding, steering and stopping through games and encouraging coaching.

From “floor is lava” to simple paths, children practice balance and body control while having fun with other little riders.

Bike Lessons Parents and Toddlers Can Enjoy Together

This class is for ages 3–5. No prior riding experience is needed. Children can build balance before learning to pedal.

What little riders will practice

Toddler Balance Bike Class includes short activities, playful repetition and encouraging coaching: rolling, steering, stopping, songs and movement games, plus hands-on exploration of wheels, pedals and pulleys.

We have three Strider balance bikes, scooting seats and soft pads to share. Your own balance bike is welcome. Each child can progress at their own pace with supportive coaching.

  • Get comfortable: Stand over and move with a properly fitted balance bike.
  • Find balance: Practice steady body position with feet close to the ground.
  • Stride: Push along with alternating steps and explore longer strides.
  • Glide: Try lifting the feet when ready—“floor is lava!”
  • Steer and stop: Follow simple paths and practice slowing down.
  • Ride around others: Take turns, leave space and follow the coach’s cues.

Bring a Helmet and Your Curiosity

Bring your child’s properly fitted helmet, closed-toe shoes, water and clothes for outdoor play. Helmets are not shared. Bring your own balance bike or ask about one of our three shared bikes before attending.
