Some roller dance moves are interpreted differently by different people and the grapevine is certainly one of those.

It's really easy to forget your warm up and rush straight into skating, yet even just a few minutes can loosen your joints and help to protect you from injury. Think about working from top to toe so you isolate each part of the body. Start in your shoes and move to balancing while rolling - this is safer than staying on the spot. If you're limited for space, we always suggest you do your warm up off skates for safety.
