Schwantz Motorcycle Riding School

Welcome to the Schwantz School, based at the beautiful Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, Alabama!

While the racetrack is our classroom, the Schwantz School is not a racing school.  I like to think of it as 2.38 miles of asphalt without cars and other distractions. We have a full fleet of Michelin shod Honda CBR600RRs and Suzuki GSX-R600s for students to ride, or you can bring your own Honda or Suzuki. If you need gear we have a full compliment of Dainese leathers, boots and gloves as well as custom-painted Schwantz School Arai helmets for rent. You can literally walk in off the street and be outfitted head-to-toe to ride!

My ultimate goal at the Schwantz School is to create more confident, safer riders. Each class is divided into two groups, to allow for more personal attention by my championship winning instructors. Both groups are taught the basics of visual skills and body positioning, which sounds elementary, but if you approach my two-day riding school with the right mindset for even the basic things that we teach, you'll become a much better, more confident and safer rider. What makes me a world champion is performing the basics at near perfection. In other words, attending the Schwantz School with the right mindset, I guarantee you will learn a lot.

I look forward to riding with you at the Schwantz Motorcycle Riding School!
