Learn to Skate!
Beginner skating lessons for all ages!
This class will teach the basics of roller skating and rollerblading including starting & stopping, forward and backward maneuvering, falling down & getting up, balancing on one foot, technique, and safety. We also mix in some fun with games like Dead Bug and the Hokey Pokey to apply newly learned skating skills! Lessons are taught by highly qualified & Roller Skating Association Certified skating instructors.
Skills can be progressed according to each individual skater so feel free to attend multiple classes!
This is a parent participation class if your child cannot skate independently yet. Any parents that would like to walk or skate with their child on the floor during class may do so for no additional cost. Or you’re welcome to watch from the side!
To allow for each skater to improve their skating talent without relying on an aid, we do not allow Skate-mate tools during this class.
