New Venue for 2022- usual time!!!!!

What will we learn? Are you looking to level up your roller skating and improve your coordination and control? Roller dance is a great way to do this - we will teach you some different movements you can practise at home (roller dance is also small space friendly) - and we will learn a few dances so we are disco ready! We will cover a range of roller dance movements and styles.

Each week we will re-visit steps and sequences, so we can build familiarity and confidence. We will also introduce something new, then combine elements into a little routine.

Expect some of our favourite routines too! (We do *really* like Beyonce.)

To get the most from this class

• you should be able to roll forwards,
• stand still
• step from side to side
• fall safely
• crossing your feet is a bonus
• rolling backwards is a bonus

Make sure you wear any protective pads you need to feel safe - we are all at different stages in our journey, and better to be safe than to bruise your knees!

What is the difference between a “Practise session” and the other classes you run?

A practise session contains workshops - these cover skills that the attendees would like to practise.   These are not 1-2-1 sessions and we will endeavour to fulfill as many requests as possible.  You do not have to participate in workshops if you would like to work on other things.  A rink area to skate in an anti-clockwise direction and a cone area will be available for practise throughout the session.

Classes are structured sessions and are designed to take you through progression of skills - see the separate class descriptions for more details on what the class will cover.
