The DC Bike Academy is a Youth-Centered, Community-Based, Full-Service Bicycle Workshop, that helps young people discover the potential to transform themselves and their communities through the power of bikes.

Our innovative, hands-on programs provides youth with opportunities to engage in hands-on learning activities that combine critical thinking, practical skills, teamwork and mentoring. Youth learn the basics of bicycle repair, earn community service hours, work readiness skills and receive a bike for themselves to keep.

We are an organization of cyclists, educators, and community leaders who believe we can make a difference in the lives of our youth if we give them the right tools to succeed. WE ARE the community — government agencies, schools, non-profit organizations, volunteers, corporations, and parents, dedicated to providing exceptional programming for under-served Youth. WE ARE the DC Bike Academy.
