Flatground Tricks Taster class 17+

This workshop will introduce some skate tricks that are our coaches favourites. A skate trick can be anything you want it to be. We will show you some ways to level up your lemons, and other tricks to try. Some will be quicker to achieve than others! Practise makes progress.

These sessions are designed to help you progress on your roller skating journey, by introducing new skill and practising and refining skills you already have.

To get the most from this session, we suggest you can already:

• roll forwards and lemon / bubble

• starting to roll backwards

• can stop with some control

• can fall safely

• starting to turn

What will we learn?

We will cover a range of skills, including:  stopping, skating backwards, transitions, crossovers, jumping and many more.

• The ability level for this class is very very wide,  we will help you identify your next steps for progression.

• Emphasis in this class is on good technique

• Growth mindset in our skaters is encouraged - this class is designed to push you out of your comfort zone, however all exercises are optional.

• Many of these skills will likely take months or years to perform confidently on a range of surfaces and from high speed - this class gives you the opportunity to practise with coaching support.
