Escapes MTB Team

Escapes MTB Coaching was born out of a shared passion for mountain biking between a mother and her daughter.

Stephanie's dedication to the sport led her to become a PMBIA Certified Instructor back in 2021 and she has since added Kids and E-Bike Instructing Certifications to her tool kit. 

She's been passing on her knowledge and skills to her daughter Maddie, who has now followed in her footsteps by earning her PMBIA Level 1 Certification.

Stephanie is trained as a registered nurse, proud mom of four, and an active member of Penticton Search and Rescue who has recently joined Apex Ski Patrol. She brings professionalism, passion, experience, and formal instruction to every clinic.

Stephanie isn’t just part of the team at Rover Bike Shop, she’s their ambassador who’s passionate about supporting local above anything else and fostering a strong, welcoming female MTB community. She’s dedicated to creating a safe, non-judgmental space where women riders can connect, grow, and ride with confidence.

Maddie is a high school student going into grade 11 and accomplished athlete who is on the high school MTB Team and brings the stoke, fun vibes and usually the mechanical knowhow. 

Their personalized approach and years of experience make them the perfect team to help you or your child reach your mountain biking goals.
