Studio Beginner Roller Skate (Age 17+)
Suitable for those with little or no experience on roller skates.
Service Description
Suitable for complete beginners, returning skaters or those with limited experience. Absolutely no previous roller skate experience is needed to attend this class. We warmly welcome those who are starting their roller skate journey. Numbers are limited to ensure we can keep an optimum student to Skate Coach ratio. What size hire skates do I need? We recommend you ask for your regular shoe size. If you try skates on and they're not right for you, we are happy to swap them. Our skate hire is available in full sizes only, from UK 3 - UK 12. Please note: The coaching in this class will end up to 10 minutes before the session end to allow for the removal of skates and protection within the session time. What will we learn? We will have a separate group and instructor to look after our newest roller skaters who have absolutely no prior experience. Otherwise our instructor team will assess your current skate level and support you with developing your skills. Each week we will cover different skills designed to build your confidence in all areas, including: getting started falling safely starting stopping how to skate backwards and a whole lot more! Remember: Roller skate skills can take months to develop, depending on the skill you want to learn. We are not able to include all skills every week - skaters attend these sessions until they feel confident to progress to our skills workshops. If you're not sure, please speak to a member of the coach team at class. Can I bring my own refreshments? Yes of course. We want to keep this skate space alcohol free, so ask you do not bring alcohol to consume on the premises, including the car park. If you bring your own water bottle, we are able to refill this for you for free. We also have a small selection of soft drinks for sale. Should you spill your drink, please let a member of our team know straight away. Please make sure you are not eating and drinking while you skate, that includes chewing gum.
