I was able to pivot and make it to the appointment with my child and when i later followed up later i was met with a lack of understanding as to why this was a much bigger deal than just missing a lesson. I found the response unsatisfactory and would not recommend the premium price of the dmv test as there is a gap in understanding on their part on the importance of that specific service. One star for amazing instructor matt b. It was not his fault and he was exceptional

Cheryl clearly is good at her job and connecting with teenage drivers because she makes the driving hours enjoyable. I also appreciate that she helps kids take responsibility for booking their dmv appointments and passing their final driving test. We highly recommend Cheryl. We now have a licensed driver thanks to Cheryl!

Took my R2 here yesterday (May 20th) along with someone else and we both had a great time!…read moreOriginally took my CSMP in San Mateo and would have taken the R2 there as well but due to scheduling availability and other plans we decided to make the trip to Santa Rosa. Since it was my second attempt for my skills test the class was a lot smaller and only consisted of 3 students, which in my opinion was ALOT better due to the more one on one practice. My instructor was Dave and I absolutely loved how calm his teaching methods were (although with a class of 3 instead of 12 who wouldn't be calm lol). He gave us plenty of instruction and we had more time to practice each skill due to extra time and amount of participants. At the end we all passed our skills tests and he told us one by one what we missed (since your allowed up to 20 points) and let us know that our certificate would be coming via mail within a couple of days. Overall I would really recommend this course either in Santa Rosa or San Mateo ( as I only attended these, but believe instructors alternate between all of the other locations). Don't be so hard on yourself if you don't pass the first time, motorcycles take a lot of time and practice! But most importantly HAVE FUN!

Just finished my motorcycle training class (June 2025 - Santa Rosa) and I couldn't be happier…read more To start, the enrollment/registration process couldn't be any easier. Once you get your dates, everything can be done online. NorCal Moto does an excellent job in keeping you informed with emails, materials and requirements. You're in great hands with Cynthia Gutierrez because she is incredibly responsive and helpful. The training class has gear requirements for your own safety, so please follow their guidelines. It truly is not about inconvenience but it's to ensure that you are riding safely and to protect from unnecessary injuries. The class reading materials and quizzes are very helpful and the scores are part of your success. That data on motorcycle riding is very serious as you will discover. This also applies in the riding portion of your class, especially for beginners. I have previous riding experience, but this class forces you to think/process more critically to avoid bad habits. We all need practice as your skills can diminish over the years. The riding portion of the class is incredibly fun and supportive. Our instructors - Marcelo and Dan - are both passionate in helping you learn. You are going to make mistakes but the coaching is just tremendous. You will experience challenges but that's how you will learn to be (smooth) in your approach. You will learn to be more vigilant as required for real street riding... (BTW - The motorcycles they have are very forgiving and easy to ride in class.) You will have every opportunity to do well if you pay attention. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience as this is a top notch certified training facility. For Marcelo/Dan: "Obrigado!!!"

Jimmy was very rude and she stated that he would yell at her and answer sarcastically when she asked a question. My daughter said that she was almost in an accident and Jimmy was livid. I texted Jimmy to figure out what had happened and he accused me of not training my daughter well. I politely asked for a refund he said no refund. I asked if it was ok to reschedule and for the next time to have another adult in the car. Jimmy said OK On 05/02/2023 Jimmy came at 0707 for the last lesson. I asked my husband to join our daughter but Jimmy refused to have another adult in the car. I asked for my refund once again or another driver but he declined and took off

****WARNING PLEASE READ***…read more I booked a second driving instruction for my son. The first time we used West Point which was informative and professional. This man jimmy didn't teach my son anything new at all! On top of that he was rude and impatient and raised his voice often. But this is the worst part: My biracial son was coming off a fast merging lane to a slow one at a curve, naturally he slowed down. There happened to be a cop pulled to the shoulder. This man says to my son, "Why are you slowing down?? Are you afraid the cop will beat you to death? (laughs hysterically) Don't worry I have cameras" My was hurt and confused. It made him feel really awkward. This is not ok or something you joke about. I'm pissed! What was supposed to be a good experience for my son, turned into something completely uncalled for AND he didn't teach him anything. Please do not book with this company!

I took this course at the College of San Mateo and had a really great time!…read more As for my riding experience coming into the course, I just had a few years of dirt experience but knew nothing about riding on the street. However, with the classroom training, I was able to begin to get into the mindset of street riding and came to the first in-person class feeling excited and prepared! James and Dale are awesome instructors who make sure you are comfortable doing the exercises and understand their instructions before sending you off to practice. They are always happy to answer any questions you may have and are great guys. Overall, I highly recommend the Norcal Moto Training course and couldn't be happier riding around my new Triumph Bonneville. Thanks!

Sergey, the owner, is a serious athlete who once performed in the famed Moscow Circus & has also trained many serious athletes -- including a couple of Olympians. Yet, he also creates an easy rapport with children, hires excellent coaches & staff, & believes that gymnastics, movement arts & circus arts should be healthful & FUN. His programs are rigorous & disciplined, but also accessible & enjoyable. Sergey also continues to maintain a clientele of child & adult athletes to whom he provides one-on-one training. I especially enjoy the circus arts component of Sergey's curriculum. Watching kids juggle various objects, twirl plates on sticks, & tumble through hoops is a joy to onlookers & also for them. The facility -- a former warehouse space on Mill Street in Healdsburg -- is bright, spacious, & chock-full of fun stuff & gymnastics equipment. Parents who need to occupy their infants & toddlers while their older children take a class can climb up the stairs to the loft with the little ones for a lively assortments of mats, jungle gyms, equipment & toys designed for tiny bodies & hands. Prices are reasonable. Drop-in is $15 per session, but lessons are only $10 per session if you pay in advance before the beginning of the month.

A surprisingly small amount of blood was shed, and the guy running the place was great with managing everything and getting everyone involved. Even if you don't live in Healdsburg, check it out as a party location.
