Great team I have trained with them at both the Wickham site for my CBT and at the Ash site for my full license. Got me through my MOD1 and MOD2 first time and Chris (Ash site) is a great trainer. I would recommend all the team at Phoenix to anyone looking to get in to the world of bikes all of the guys are great and make the whole thing fun.

I would 100% recommend to anyone wanting to get their license done. I did most of the training with Chris, he was so patient and understanding. The entire experience was quick and painless, and I was actually surprised at how easy the actual test for my license was, that definitely being because of the fantastic lessons from the instructors. Thank you Phoenix for making my mid life crisis dream come true!

Chris was an amazing instructor. He took me through the CBT, Mod 1 and Mod 2, passed everything the first time due to his great instruction. Bikes were lovely to ride.

Superb day doing my CBT!
Jon was amazing, really considerate of the 36° heat - made sure we had periodic breaks in the shade and provided plenty of cold water. A complete professional, he explained exactly how the heat would impact the day and was spot on.
Fantastic experience, really excited about continuing on to my DAS.

Completed my CBT a few weeks back. Mukhtar was such a great instructor and really made me feel welcome. He truly wants the best for his students, stays with it when you need more time and moves you along when you are ready. All in all a very enjoyable day and I truly feel confident enough to move onto my full license very soon.

Really enjoyable experience. John keeps a cool head even when basic mistakes are made. Went to the Farnham/Aldershot school, and John made us feel so at ease and welcome. It doesn’t matter if you have experience or are a complete novice, the training is really great! I would 100% recommend to anyone wanting to get any licenses.

Having not ridden a motor bike in 35 years I wanted a refresher course to see if this was something I wanted to try again. Jon was an excellent tutor. He supplied all the equipment, including a 650 motor bike and we started regaining confidence with cones in the car park. Turns, braking, slalom and emergency stop were all undertaken. Then we went out on the road for an hour or so and Jon through a connected mike instructed me clearly through each situation as it arose and I quickly became engaged and confident in riding safely around the roads. Jon was brilliant and I would highly recommend his tuition for anyone thinking of getting back onto a bike, even if your break was not quite as long as 35 years like mine!

Jon is a great instructor, very knowledgable, good instruction and I would personally recommend him to everyone. I did my full license from CBT to Big Boy license. I will also be doing my advanced riding with Jon in the Spring. Unlike other schools Jon has great bikes with ABS, which is very useful specially in winter and wet conditions. I liked the bike so much I ordered a new one within 10 minutes of passing. I had talked about getting my license for over a decade, my advise to anyone just give Jon a call and make it happen. Good Luck!

Have no hesitation in contacting Jon for CBT and beyond! I had already completed my initial training before finding the Phoenix group - I’m thrilled to have completed some lovely and varied rides across my training for the full A licence. It wasn’t a straight forward process for me, I was nervous to (a literal) fault through my Mod 1 attempts, but by the time I finished my Mod 2 with my full A certificate in hand, it was worth it.
Jon’s patience and passion for his bikes (and yours) makes all the difference as instructor and delivering the skills required to stay safe on the roads. I’m grateful to my time and training on the Honda 650cc and the confidence I’m starting to build, I feel he’s given me the best start and
*Thank you also Lisa for all of your time and encouragement whilst booking the sessions and tests,

I trained for my CBT and then did the Direct Access with Jon, within a few incredibly patient, informative and (most importantly) fun training sessions I'd turned from someone who'd never even sat on a bike to passing! I couldn't recommend highly enough. Jon has a way of making you always feel calm and in control, meaning the lessons are extremely enjoyable! 5*.

Recently completed my CBT here. Having never ridden a bike before Jon made the whole experience thoroughly enjoyable. He creates a relaxed atmosphere and shows great patience throughout. Will be back for the MOD 1 & 2.

I did an assessment on a 650cc bike with Jon at Phoenix Farnham Honda and subsequently a half day improver training in December to feel comfortable on the bike.
I then booked my full licence training DAS (Mod 1 & 2) in January. With the temperatures being on the cold side at this time of year, the conditions were not ideal for a new rider (cold, frosty and damp) but I was always put at ease with Jon's advice. Jon is an excellent instructor, with a friendly, encouraging and patient manner. I would highly recommend booking with Jon for any of your motorcycle training.

Jon was really great in helping me pass mod 1 & 2 first time! Approach to training is really focussed on developing understanding how to stay safe on the bike. I realised it has actually made me a better car driver as well! Couldn't recommend more 👍

I had CBT then full bike training with Jon and couldn’t have asked for better. Jon is a great instructor; clear, methodical and patient. His years of experience come through in the training and he’s a really nice chap to boot. He doesn’t over teach, so once you’re confident he’ll give you breathing space to ride and only prompt when needed. He also gives you ample time to get extra practice where needed (for me it was U turns). The bikes are also good and modern, which probably helps too.
Overall a great experience and went into the tests (and passed) with complete confidence.

I successfully completed my CBT, Module 1 and Module 2 with Jon Hewitt. Training at each stage was really thorough (there is a lot to take in), with plenty of practice of each skill and technique before moving on. Jon is very patient and approachable and great at building your confidence. I will be going back for further training, I cannot recommend Jon highly enough.

Did my CBT here as it was conveniently near my dads place and found the service and teaching standard really good. Inexperienced and naive rider I thought that the CBT would be a bit of a tick box exercise, but really felt we got a thorough learning experience from Jon who was a great instructor. Enjoyed the day although long and looking forward to doing direct access course.

Cant recommend these guys more! Fantastic with help and communication when I went to them having been let down by my previous school. Mark went out of his way to get me in ASAP and once we started, John Hewitt gave absolutely Stirling training......patient, knowledgeable, detailed and professional. Just wish I'd gone to these guys for CBT and Mod 1. Will definitely be going back for advanced training at some point. Thanks guys.

I had a fantastic day training with Jon yesterday. He was really helpful in making me understand my mistakes and improving my driving despite it being my very first time on a manual bike! Thank you Jon and thank you Phoenix Motorcycle! I highly recommend doing your CBT with these guys!!

Amazing! From start to finish on my CBT course, my instructor John took me through every process of passing with simple learning steps. I’m definitely going to apply for my full license after a little road experience on my own. Recommend this motorcycle training company with 5⭐️. See you soon John and Phoenix Motorcycle Training Team.

Excellent service, very professional and everything was explained clearly and simply and they do everything they can to give extra support if your unsure or finding something a bit difficult.
John was a perfect instructor, he has lots of knowledge and can answer any questions you might have throughout the day and he really helps build up confidence on the bike as the day goes on.

A very thorough and detail course. They care lots about your safety and they believe on your potential ability on riding a bike. Very experience rider instructor full of professionalism. Paper work with Phoenix Motorcycle Training is very easy and detail. You won't miss a thing!

I completed my motorbike CBT here with Phoenix and would recommend them to anyone interested in learning to ride. The course was well run and the instructor explained and demonstrated everything clearly. The opportunity to get out on the road with the instructor there to give guidance was really good . Will be signing up for my direct access course with them.

What a fantastic, confidence building CBT experience. The Instructor, Jon Hewitt had a wonderful style, lots to impart to the 3 of us, all with different starting points and needs. We all left after a full day's training buzzing with enthusiasm and confidence that we now had the knowledge, tools and experience to embark on our motorcycle journey..... We will all be using Phoenix again in preparation for the next level of tests, but also to learn to get better and safer as we enjoy our hobby, commute and touring activities.
