I have ridden skateboards for over 35 years both as a professional skater and later as a team manager. I have taught and developed many skaters. I am an official Skateboard GB trained coach, fully insured, first aid trained and DBS checked. My approach is student focused and is based on assessing each student individually and teaching based on what we agree is the best approach. I teach techniques that will help you to progress and have a solid foundation for your own personal practice.

About the session

If you are interested in learning how to skateboard, The Skate Society offers a group skateboarding lesson every Saturday 8.30-9:30 and Sunday 9:30-10:30. We take skaters from age 7 to 70 and teach the techniques you need to enjoy the process of learning to skateboard confidently. The Techniques we focus on are: 1: Pushing 2: Foot Position 3: Body Position 4: Turning and Carving 5: Kick Turns 6: Stopping 7: Falling These seven techniques are at the heart of skating and will enable the rider to increase their confidence, explore skate terrain and have a solid foundation from which to build. The lessons encourage skaters of varying experience levels to skate together, teach each other, and learn with guidance from the tutor. We are fans of “the session” and push skaters to ride and shralp together. Learning to skate with others is a crucial aspect of enjoying the skatepark and feeling confident.

Details covered - We strive for coaches to provide as much information as possible about their sport or wellness activity to ensure the user knows what a session entails.

Support - Our support team is here for you 24/7. Our contact details can be found in bottom of this page.
