Every year, something shifts inside The Moto Academy.

Winter shows up. Tracks get quiet. Bikes sit a little longer. And for a lot of riders, the off-season can quietly turn into drift — less structure, less momentum, and more uncertainty about where progress is supposed to come from next.

That’s exactly why the Moto Academy App exists.

And it’s also why our 12 Days of Christmas tradition has become one of the most meaningful moments of the year inside our community.

What the Moto Academy App Is Really For

The Moto Academy App isn’t just content. It’s a path.

It’s for riders who don’t want improvement to come from guessing, forcing speed, or taking unnecessary risks.

Our philosophy is simple:

  • Progress shouldn’t be dangerous.
  • Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast.
  • Mastery is worth pursuing.

Inside the app, riders get structure — modern technique explained clearly, mindset training that builds calm confidence, and a community that supports growth without ego.

Because motocross is more enjoyable when you feel in control. And families stay in the sport longer when progress is built on precision, not panic.

Why Winter Might Be the Best Time of the Year to Be an App Member

Here’s the truth most riders overlook:

You don’t need perfect conditions to make real progress.

Winter is where great seasons are built quietly — by riders who stay connected to the process even when seat time is limited.

This is the season to sharpen what actually carries over to the track:

  • Body position awareness
  • Braking and acceleration posture
  • Balance and pressure control
  • Vision habits
  • Mindset reps that build confidence before consequence

Winter isn’t a pause. It’s a window.


12 Days of Christmas: A Moto Academy Tradition

Every December, we do something that has become a true Moto Academy tradition.

For 12 days, we celebrate our app community by giving back — intentionally, thoughtfully, and in the spirit of the season.

This isn’t a sweepstakes. It isn’t a sales hook.

It’s a thank-you to the riders and families who believe that progress can be safer, clearer, and more meaningful.

And if you’ve experienced it before, you already know:

It’s one of the best times of the year to be inside the Moto Academy community.

What Members Can Expect During the 12 Days

Each day, something shows up inside the app — shared directly with the community.

Sometimes it’s gear. Sometimes it’s an experience. Sometimes it’s a training opportunity that lands deeper than expected.

What makes it special isn’t just what’s given.

It’s the energy inside the community — riders encouraging riders, parents sharing wins, families reconnecting with why this sport matters.

Examples of the Types of Gifts We’ve Shared

Each year looks a little different. The intention stays the same.

Over the years, the 12 Days of Christmas has included:

  • Moto Academy merch packs
  • Guts Racing seat covers
  • Phoenix Handlebars
  • Cardo Systems Packtalk Edge
  • Insta360 cameras
  • Supercross tickets
  • Pro athlete helmets
  • All Access Season Passes

And each year, the tradition is anchored by our staple grand gift:

An all-expenses-paid trip to a 5-Day Moto Academy Camp of the winner’s choice — selected from our camp schedule across the year.

This gift represents what The Moto Academy stands for: time, coaching, growth, and becoming part of something bigger.

Why This Tradition Matters

The holidays slow us down just enough to reflect.

To notice what we’re grateful for. To recognize the people who make the journey worth it.

That’s what the 12 Days of Christmas represents inside The Moto Academy.

You’re not alone in this.

You’re part of a community that wants you riding safer, progressing smarter, and staying in the sport long enough to become the rider you always believed you could be.

An Invitation (No Pressure)

If you’ve been considering joining the Moto Academy App, winter is a meaningful time to step in.

Not because of the giveaways — though they’re a fun tradition.

But because this is when structure matters most.

Progress shouldn’t be dangerous.
Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast.
Mastery is worth pursuing.

We’ll see you inside the community. Want to join?

Note: The Moto Academy 12 Days of Christmas is a community tradition for active app members. All announcements and details are shared inside the app.
