Our Mission

ArtCycle Kids is an enrichment program that uses cycling to teach children teamwork, sportsmanship, social/emotional skills, and discipline. Founded in New York and now serving the Tampa Bay, Florida community as well, we're dedicated to helping children develop both physical skills and character through the joy of bicycling.

Why ArtCycle Kids

Bicycling is perfect for children. Kids are full of energy and the benefits of physical exercise are well-documented. Exercise increases positive emotions, boosts confidence, and helps with self-regulation. Bicycling is a form of self-expression that kids of all ages can enjoy that provides an athletic outlet and an opportunity to hone social skills.

Social engagement, creativity, and physical activity help kids learn valuable team-building skills, and they are more likely to develop a growth mindset. Our coaches work with children to help them understand the importance of positive risk-taking and how physical and mental challenges are a great opportunity to learn something new.

We help kids savor their successes and learn from challenges. Children increase self-efficacy each time they struggle through a challenge and complete a task. In our lessons and demonstrations, children are very engaged and love every aspect of the experience.

Why Bicycling?

Research shows that participation in sports offers psychological and social benefits for children of all ages. Organized sports increase children's well-being and confidence while teaching them important social skills.

Bicycling helps kids to develop coordination skills and to become attuned to their physicality. It is essential to instill an exercise habit at a young age because sports offer benefits that are essential throughout the life span.

Our Approach to Learning

Safety First

Child safety is paramount. We provide your child with a solid platform for confident sport participation, in which children are challenged to work hard and maintain a growth mindset.

Our coaches provide clear guidelines to engage students in the learning process, and we know structure and rules of comportment make kids feel safe.

Pressure-Free Environment

We believe learning should be enjoyable and stress-free. Our instructors create a supportive atmosphere where children feel comfortable trying new skills at their own pace.

There's no pressure to advance quickly—only encouragement to enjoy the process and celebrate progress.

Small Class Sizes

To ensure that we create high-quality experiential learning sessions, we limit class size. This allows our coaches to address each child's unique needs and learning style.

We teach kids to be persistent, patient, and proud of their achievements through personalized attention.

The
Balance Bike Advantage

1. Easier to manage

Balance bikes are easier for young kids to manage than 12" bikes with training wheels.

2. Better on Uneven Surfaces

Uneven surfaces are easier to navigate on a balance bike.

3. Longer Riding Time:

Balance bikes are lightweight and easier to handle than regular bikes, so kids ride longer. This gives children the ability to move with competence and confidence in a wide variety of physical activities.

4. No Training Wheels Needed

Kids never need training wheels.  The transition from a balance to pedal bike just happens naturally.

5. Building Confidence

Balance bikes help children develop a solid foundation of skills that supports confident participation in all physical activities.
