    Yep, as long as it has anything to do with driving, you can rely on your good old driving schools.

    a-1-driving

    One example is A-1 Driving. According to the company’s website, those looking to learn how to ride a motorbike can learn “how to navigate the city roads safely.” Available models one can choose from include the Yamaha YTX, Yamaha Mio, Honda Beat, and Honda Click.

    A-1 branches that offer such services are its Mandaluyong, Quezon City, and Las Piñas centers.

    There’s no better way to learn how to ride a motorcycle than from the company that makes them.

    At the Honda Safety Driving Center, students can choose from various courses including their “Beginners” course, designed for novices with no riding experience and “Refresher Course” which is for people with previous riding experience. The Honda Safety Driving Center also offers seminars on road safety, completing the company’s holistic training services.

    Honda’s training facility is located at San Martin de Porres, Parañaque, Metro Manila.

    3. Mel Aquino’s Yamaha Off-Road Training Camp

    This school is for people who want to learn how to properly ride a dirt bike.

    Mel Aquino, a rather famous fixture in the local motocross scene, leads this training camp where he and his team teach various courses from basic riding lessons to more advanced riding sessions — even how to do wheelies and stunt riding.

    4. YouNiversity.

    That’s right, in this day and age, you can look up everything on the internet, especially on YouTube. There are tons of riding channels in the video streaming platform that you can view all while in the comfort of your home.
