TWEENS & ADULTS CLASS - 7pm Ages - approx. 12yrs + |
The perfect class for kids climbing the skills ladder. This class will challenge all participants to pick up essential skills. Children can bring grownups into class with them, so this is a great opportunity for families to roll together. Got a tiny skater? no worries, our baby rollers will start in Play Skate to develop essential foundation skills. |
New skaters who are still flailing, falling, shaky and wobbly or carry anxiety and fear, we will get you up, rolling, controlling your direction and keeping yourself safe. Skaters beyond the beginner level. This is a great way to develop with a mix of skills including from a number of different skate sports added in for a challenge. |
