Moon Ridge Moto Ranch
A day of community, connection, and courage. Inspired by the outdoors, grounded in resilience, and built for women who ride.
Motorcycle Riding
Riding is what brings us together, like-minded women who share a love for two wheels and the freedom that comes with it. This is our throttle therapy: a chance to unplug, drop into your body, and leave the noise behind.
Open to all levels and built around real-world trail confidence. You’ll learn the technical foundations that make riding feel easier and safer, with clear progressions you can meet at your level and build on throughout the day, including:
Body position + balance for stability on loose terrain
Throttle, clutch, and brake control for smoother starts, stops, and speed management.
Cornering and line choice to handle ruts, rocks, roots, and uneven ground.
Hills and small obstacles (climbs/descents, logs,)
Trail awareness + decision-making so you feel confident when conditions change.
We’ll apply every skill to realistic scenarios you face on the trails, so you leave knowing not just what to do, but when and why. By the end of the day, you’ll get to bring it all together and show your skills off on a guided trail ride, riding as a group in a supportive, confidence-building setting.
Yoga + Breathwork
Yoga + Breathwork will be a grounding part of the day—because how you move, breathe, and recover matters just as much as how you ride. Movement is medicine, and this session is designed to bring you back into your body, your breath, and the present moment.
Amanda will guide you through intentional movement to help you feel more open, strong, and connected, supporting mobility, stability, and recovery both on and off the bike. You’ll also build better awareness of the patterns that show up when we’re stressed or pushing our edge like tight grip, stiff arms and shoulders, shallow breathing, and holding your breath. When you can notice those patterns, you can change them and everything starts to feel more controlled.
Beyond the poses, you’ll learn practical breathwork and nervous system regulation tools you can use immediately, before a ride, mid-ride, or anytime life feels loud. This session will leave you feeling reset, regulated, and deeply present, with techniques you can carry into every trail, every challenge, and every day.
Resilience + Empowerment
This workshop is the mindset side of the experience and it’s designed to support you on the bike and in everyday life. Gina will guide you through practical tools for self-awareness, confidence, emotional regulation, and resilience, helping you understand what’s happening internally when you feel fear, frustration, overwhelm, or self-doubt.
You’ll learn how to recognize the mental state you’re in (and how it shows up in your body and your decisions), why that state can change how you ride and how you respond to challenges, and how to shift it in real time. Together we’ll work through strategies to regulate your emotions in the moment, shift your mindset when fear or frustration shows up, and respond with confidence instead of reacting.
This isn’t just “moto mindset.” It’s an all-encompassing, real-world workshop that gives you tools you can take into relationships, work, training, and life, anywhere you want to feel steadier, braver, and more capable.
The Heart Behind the Event

A well-paced day with clear sessions and time to integrate—so you learn deeply without feeling rushed. This experience is built around learning, then applying: we’ll introduce a skill, practice it with coaching and support, and then take it into real-world scenarios so it actually sticks. Each session builds on the last—mind, body, and bike—so you’re not just collecting tips, you’re building confidence through repetition and wins. You’ll bring it all together with a guided trail ride at the end of the day.
Step out of the noise and into the trees—come ride, come breathe, come reconnect. A fully integrated women’s experience that builds skill, resilience, and self-trust—because how you ride is how you move through life.
❋ Intentional Structure❋ Collaborative EnergyThis is women supporting women, through encouragement, accountability, and steady support. You’ll build mental strength alongside riding skills by practicing positive self-talk, self-awareness, and emotional regulation under pressure, especially when fear shows up. And the community doesn’t end when the day does: we’re building a network of like-minded women who want to ride, grow, and move through life together. Come solo or with friends; you’ll be met where you’re at, challenged with care, and leave feeling more confident in what you can handle.
❋ Expert Female FacilitationWe’ve been incredibly intentional about who leads this day because we are women who have moved through these same challenges. Many of us didn’t have a space like this growing up—somewhere safe to ask questions, make mistakes, get real guidance, and feel supported while learning. That’s exactly what we’re creating: experienced female coaches and facilitators who understand the mental and physical side of learning, and know how to help you progress in a way that feels supportive, capable, and empowering.
❋ A Grounded, Remote SettingExpect a fully unplugged experience that invites you to slow down, reconnect, and drop into the day. This setting is intentionally chosen to feel safe and supportive—a place where you can show up exactly as you are, ask questions, take breaks, try new things, and be encouraged without pressure or judgement. It’s a true nature-based event with no services, no crowds, and no noise—just fresh air, trees, and space to be fully present.
Itinerary
-
Arrive, get settled, and ease into the day. This is your time to park, unload, get dressed, meet the group, and prepare for the day ahead. We’ll be available to assist with loading and unloading if needed. Riders will check in, sign waivers, and have a chance to get comfortable in the space before we begin. Please ensure your bike is running and ready for the day.
-
We’ll begin the morning with coffee, light snacks, and time to connect. This is a chance to settle in, meet the group, and start the day in a relaxed and welcoming environment.
-
We’ll ease into the day with a light yoga and movement session to help you connect with your body, find some mobility, and get grounded for the day ahead.
-
We’ll get riders on the bike and begin the first moto session of the day, starting with foundational skills and gradually progressing into obstacles as confidence and comfort build.
-
We’ll pause for a nourishing catered lunch, connection, and a review of photos taken during the morning moto session. This gives riders a chance to reflect on what they’ve learned so far, view their riding from a different perspective, and better understand the small details that support progress on the bike. It’s also a great opportunity to ask questions, revisit key concepts, and continue building understanding before the afternoon session.
-
A guided session focused on building mental resilience, self-trust, and confidence on and off the bike. This part of the day is designed to support women in understanding how mindset, self-regulation, and inner belief shape the way we move through challenge, discomfort, and growth.
-
This session is where we put the day’s learning into practice. Riders will apply the skills, feedback, and concepts covered throughout the day through coached riding, obstacle work, and continued progression on the bike, while also applying those skills to new obstacles.
-
This closing trail ride is an opportunity to bring the day’s learning into real-world application. Riders will carry their skills into the trail, work through terrain and obstacles with greater confidence, and continue integrating the techniques and mindset developed throughout the day. We’ll finish at a scenic viewpoint and gather around the campfire for a final moment of connection, reflection, and encouragement. Riders will leave with practical tools to help integrate what they’ve learned into everyday riding and life beyond the event.
