Teens Roller Skating Course (Ages 13–17)
Looking for something super fun to do? Want to learn to roller skate, make new friends, and pick up some seriously cool skills?
Whether you've never stepped onto skates before or you can already roll around a little, this course is for you. No experience is needed!
Over six weeks, you'll learn everything from the basics of balance and stopping to smooth turns, backwards skating, crossovers and transitions—all at your own pace in a relaxed, supportive environment.
The course is coached by Angela, a London-based street skater, who loves helping young skaters build confidence while discovering their own style on wheels. Whether your goal is to cruise around the park, skate with friends, or simply have fun and get active, Angela will help you progress every week.
By the end of the course, you'll be rolling with more confidence, better control, and a whole new set of skills.
If you’re ready to go from just rolling to skating with style, confidence, and real technique, this is the course for you!
