Serious about racing.
Ready to work.

MPA is Motopark’s dedicated motocross school for riders pursuing competitive goals. It runs alongside MP Camp as a separate training program, with a focus on riding technique, racecraft and preparation.

01

A goal worth working for

A stronger start. More consistent motos. A better result at Walton. Our ambition is to develop riders who can win and build toward a future in professional racing.

02

A commitment to improve

Bring your racing goals and a willingness to learn. MPA is for riders who already race.

Train the rider.
Prepare for the race.

Technical coaching, purposeful practice and preparation on and off the bike. Four connected areas shape the Academy’s approach to motocross training.

01

Technique

Braking, body position, corners and line choice. Work on the details that help you carry speed with control as the track changes.

02

Racecraft

Starts, opening laps, passing and race-pace motos. Practise making decisions and putting your technique to work under race conditions.

03

Physical preparation

Strength and conditioning, warm-up, hydration and recovery habits. Prepare for the demands of riding and repeated motos.

04

Mental preparation

Goals, focus and race routines. Work on responding to mistakes and keeping your attention on the next section, lap and start.

Know what to work on.
Put it into practice.

Improvement comes from understanding the change, practising it and seeing how it holds up on the track. Speed matters. So do control, consistency and the decisions you make through a moto.

  1. Technique

    Look at how you brake, position the bike and use the track. Work with a coach on the details of your riding.

  2. Execution

    Practise those changes in sections, starts and motos. Learn to repeat the skill as pace and conditions change.

  3. Consistency

    Look beyond one fast lap. Work toward riding with control and maintaining your pace throughout the moto.

Lap timing can support your training when your bike has a transponder. Ask us about timing availability, video review and rider feedback for your weeks.

MPA riders train with a lead coach on the track, a fitness coach off the bike, and Motopark’s head of coaching overseeing the program.

Life at the Academy

Ride. Refuel.
Come back ready.

Coaching on the track, preparation off the bike and time to eat and recover. MPA combines the training day with meals and a place to stay at Motopark.

Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served in the Off-Road Café. Riders stay in a bunk or on a non-serviced campsite with their own trailer. Serviced sites and weekend stays are arranged separately.

Bring your bike, riding gear and training clothes. Discuss bike support, fuel, transponders and any rental needs with us before you arrive.

Plan your visit

Your rider.
Your race calendar.

Book online. It starts with a few questions about the rider’s racing, so every group trains at race pace.

  1. Tell us about their racing

    Their class, their races and the jumps they take on the main track. If MPA isn’t the right fit yet, we’ll point you to MP Camp.

  2. Choose your weeks

    Two weeks minimum, from camp weeks 1–6, or all six.

  3. Pay a deposit or in full

    A $200 deposit holds each week, with the balance at check-in. Or pay in full when you book.

If plans change.

Review the cancellation terms before registering. For a multi-week stay, discuss any planned race absences and schedule changes with us in advance.

Before training starts

The deposit is non-refundable. Cancel before the Academy starts and it stays on your account as Motopark credit; payments beyond the deposit are refundable under the policy.

Once training begins

There are no refunds once the program starts. Contact us to discuss your circumstances and how the policy applies to your booked weeks.

Questions about MPA.

The details that help you plan your training and choose the right program.

How do I book MPA Motocross Academy?

Online, with the Book MPA button. A few questions about the rider’s racing come first; if MPA isn’t the right fit yet, we’ll suggest MP Camp. Then pick your weeks and hold each one with a $200 deposit, or pay in full.

What age, bike size and experience do I need for MPA?

MPA is for riders who already race, on a 65cc or bigger, and can take the jumps on Motopark’s main track. The booking’s first questions check this. MP Camp offers the broader riding-school and summer-camp experience for beginners through experienced racers.

Can I book one week, and what are the 2027 dates?

The minimum is two weeks, up to the full six-week summer. MPA runs during camp weeks 1–6: June 28–July 2, July 5–9, July 12–16, July 19–23, July 26–30 and August 2–6, 2027. Training runs Monday to Friday.

How much does MPA cost?

MPA costs $5,850 + HST for the full six-week summer or $1,075 + HST per week for fewer than six weeks. The full summer saves $600 before HST compared with six weeks at the weekly rate.

Can I stay between weeks or leave for a race?

Weekend stays can be arranged separately. Tell us about your race calendar and accommodation needs when planning your weeks so we can confirm weekend arrangements, costs and any time away from training.

How is MPA different from MP Camp?

MPA is a separate race-development program for riders pursuing competitive goals, with weekly and full-summer options. MP Camp is a five-day riding school with the full summer-camp experience, for beginners through experienced racers.

Where do MPA riders sleep and eat?

Riders stay in a bunk bed or on a non-serviced campsite with their own trailer. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served in the Off-Road Café. Serviced sites and weekend stays are arranged separately; confirm those details when booking.

Do I need a transponder, and how does rider feedback work?

Lap times typically require a transponder on the rider’s bike. Ask us about compatible equipment, timing availability, video review and written rider feedback for your training weeks.

Who coaches MPA?

Michael Mahoney is MPA’s lead coach, on the track with the riders every day. Jeremiah Kennedy of KF Training & Fitness runs strength and conditioning. Zeb Dennis, Motopark’s chief instructor, heads the coaching and steps in to teach.

Is MPA for riders who want to race professionally?

MPA is for riders pursuing competitive goals, including those working toward national-level racing and a possible professional future. Motopark’s ambition is to develop winning riders. Progress and results depend on the rider, their preparation and competition; no finish or career outcome is guaranteed.
