Phoenix Motorcycle Training - Foots Cray Avis 

Training with Phoenix was genuinely transformative. From the first session, I felt supported and challenged in all the right ways. Chris doesn’t just teach precision riding techniques - he coaches you through them with patience and insight. He spotted and addressed bad riding habits with ease and patience, helping break old patterns and build safer, smarter skills. Every drill and scenario was purposeful, sharpening the situational awareness and hazard response in real time. It was empowering to feel confidence grow with each ride. Chris has a gift for unlocking your potential and making you believe in your own capability. I’m grateful for the journey and the skillset I now carry forward. Thank you, Chris!

I did my CBT at Phoenix Motorcycle Training Centre Sidcup, and it was a great experience! The staff were really helpful, and everything was well-organized. A special thanks to Paul, my instructor — he’s an amazing person and a fantastic trainer. He taught with full effort, patience, and made sure everyone understood everything clearly. Highly recommend this place.

A day at Footscray - Trail-Riding Level 1

The course was run by Steve and John, who were very solicitous towards this particularly ancient person. Kitting out was good, and protection more than adequate, but just getting on and off a bike was the first problem, solved by giving me a lowered 125. The initial session on the training ground was a bit of a rude awakening for a very rusty rider - first falling off!

Introduction to the trails was bit tentative but enjoyable despite various falls (all low speed and quickly re-mounted after helping me up!). The dry going was useful. but I was slow, and the others were having to wait. After a few trails Steve and John decided the group should be split up, with John acting as my minder, and avoiding the more difficult trails. Continued thus after the lunch stop, and finished up on part of the Pilgrims’ Way. Actually very enjoyable indeed, and covered a lot of trails and by-ways I would otherwise never experience.

Back to Base, and pleased to stop - it is pretty tiring - but very pleased indeed to have taken part. Look forward to another level 1 session, perhaps after some more current road-riding practice.

Can’t recommend Steve and John too highly, they are very good at the roles of both trainers and minders! John in particular was very patient indeed.
Thanks a lot to them both.

All instructors were super friendly and helpful. They were the reason I passed 1st time both my Mod 1 and Mod 2. Thank you!

I went from having been a pillion for a couple months to being a rider within a day of training. Didn't get it the first time since my clutch control was bad (completely my fault hahaha), but Sean and Wynne where so accommodating and lovely to train with.

I will be back to do my full A license when I turn 24.

I look forward to training alongside the team again.

I just got my full motorcycle license after training with Phoenix. I passed both Mod 1 and Mod 2 test on the first time with a clean sheet and this should say everything about the level of training you’ll receive. Thank you Phoenix!

Great communication, great support and a great time.

The trainers were superb- absolute height of professionalism even when I had some bother with my photocard license. The training was well paced and instructions very clear throughout. I want to get further with my motorcycle training and will be coming back to build on my CBT.

Great instructors, very friendly and they make sure you’re ready and comfortable to be on the roads

I can’t recommend Phoenix Motorcycle Training at Foots Cray highly enough! From start to finish, the team made the whole journey to getting my Full A licence an absolute pleasure.

A massive thank you to Mark, Sam, Chris, Nick, and Harrison – each of them played a huge part in building my confidence and sharpening my skills on the bike. Their patience, professionalism, and clear way of teaching made everything click into place.

Thanks to their guidance, I passed both my Mod 1 and Mod 2 tests first attempt, with completely clean sheets – something I honestly never thought I’d achieve! The training was well-structured, supportive, and always focused on safety as well as enjoyment.

If you’re looking for the best place to train, look no further. The Foots Cray team are outstanding, and I couldn’t have done it without them.

I don’t usually leave reviews, but this one’s a must!

I’ve been with Phoenix for years — right from wobbling through my first CBT to smashing my full A licence. The team’s been amazing; they’ve literally watched me grow.

Massive shoutout to Mark and Sam at the Erith branch — absolute legends! I started my journey with Mark and wrapped it up with Sam, two top lads who somehow managed to keep me upright and confident on two wheels.

If you want a place that’ll have you learning, laughing, and leaving as a proper rider (and maybe a better person), Phoenix is the one!

Very good team. Always willing to help in any area and will do the best they can as long as you are competent riders and show your ability. You will get the CBT, but don't be shy if the trainers are not helping you. Ask for a new one. They all have their own personalities, and sometimes, you need someone willing to go that extra mile to help you. And I would highly recommend this school.

They have the best trainers
Best experience
I recomand

Great instructors at an affordable price. Very good customer service.I can’t not recommend them enough.

I completed my CBT at another training school before discovering Phoenix.
I wish I had found them sooner as my experience with the other school was not to standard.
I have completed the following with Phoenix
A 90 min big boy conversion from the 125cc.
My MOD 1 and MOD 2 training.
The professionalism and the knowledge from the instructors were 10/10.
Steve and Helen were very helpful with booking these courses via email and on the phone.
Thanks again all
Chris

The instructions was amazing as always really professional ppl. However the actual place it is a shame. Kitchen area really not clean feels like for years toilet omg where to start I was there from 7:30am to 4:50 pm and is make me feel sick when I have to use the toilet. I understand it is an old place but clean can be done anywhere. Specially when u have to be there all day make a cup coffee and go to toilet was not fun. But a massive thank to Shane and mark they where amazing 🤩

Train hard, test easy!!!
Company policy and it worked first time. Lovely lads too, can’t recommend highly enough

Passed both MOD 1 and MOD 2 first try, everybody is friendly and gives clear instructions, they go in depth with all things about the bike both on and off the road. It was an amazing experience and I’m so grateful to all of them, I know get to ride where and when ever I like, I definitely recommend, I’ll be using them again to get my full A license and for there advance training sessions as well.

Friendly and experienced staff. Definitely recommend for any sort of driving test and trainings.

Great day, Mark and the team great instructors. Can't wait to continue my biking journey at the sidcup centre.
