This course is for you if: you are new to skating and want to become a strong beginner skater with great fundamental roller skating skills. Or if you can skate a little bit but are unsure about what you’re really doing and the best things to practise to improve. This course is the progression after our Ultimate beginners course BUT You can join Level One without completing the Ultimate Beginners.
This course is not for you if: You have never put on your skates before. You don’t need to have spent hours on skates, but we want participants to have a little bit of balance before joining this Level 1 course. This course is for adults (18+) only.
Level 1: This course teaches you all the roller skating fundamentals to make you a strong beginner skater. This course is at a faster pace than our ultimate beginner course and brings more variations and fine tuning in some previously learned skills.
