Lessons give students basic information on the function of a skateboard as well as assistance with learning tricks. The students will be taught some of the skateboarding techniques listed below. Safety gear is not required, but it is recommended and included in the cost of the Lesson.
Please keep in mind that although your child may have been taught a few moves on a skateboard, it does not necessarily mean that he/she will improve drastically with each Lesson. The development of skateboarding ability is a lifelong challenge that takes dedication and patience and each individual learns at his/her own pace. We are here to help, but if the skater does not practice outside of Skatepark, improvement will come at a much slower pace.
