Workshops for skaters who would like to improve their skills - Suitable for everyone - athough you should be able to skate forward fairly confidently to be able to get the maximum benefit of the class

This session will focus on the following Skill (we may also cover other skills in addition to the main focus):

Festival Vibes & Party tricks - This workshop we'll show you different tricks you can do on your skates as well as give you the opportunity to play with streamers, poi, cones, beanbags and more 

To get the most from this session, we suggest you can already:

• roll forwards and lemon / bubble
• starting to roll backwards
• can stop with some control
• can fall safely
• starting to turn

General things to remember

• The ability level for this class is very very wide,  we will help you identify your next steps for progression.
• Emphasis in this class is on good technique
• Growth mindset in our skaters is encouraged - this class is designed to push you out of your comfort zone, however all exercises are optional.
• Many of these skills will likely take months or years to perform confidently on a range of surfaces and from high speed - this class gives you the opportunity to practise with coaching support.
• While we would love you to take part in the whole session, our approach is person-centered. That means you do what feels safe for you.

What size hire skates do I need?

We recommend you ask for your regular shoe size.  If you try skates on and they're not right for you, we are happy to swap them. Our skate hire is available in full sizes only, from UK 3 - UK 15. You no longer need to book a specific ticket to tell us what size you require.

I have a Skate Pass, do I still need to book?

Yes, please still book your spot for FNS, and have your digital Skate Pass ready to show at check-in.  Please remember that if you are not able to make it, our cancellation policy does still apply.

Can I bring my own refreshments?

Yes of course.  We want to keep this skate space alcohol free, so ask you do not bring alcohol to consume on the premises, including the car park. If you bring your own water bottle, we are able to refill this for you for free.  We also have a small selection of soft drinks for sale.  Should you spill your drink, please let a marshall know straight away.  Please make sure you are not eating and drinking while you skate, that includes chewing gum.

I wear inline skates, can I come?

Yup. We welcome all wheely-booted folks.

I don't identify as a girl, can I come?

Absolutely!  Roller Girl Gang was founded and is run by women, with the support of our fantastic volunteer team, to provide better access to roller skating for all genders and identities, especially marginalised folks.

Can I collect my shop order?

You absolutely can, providing you have made the order with sufficient time for the team to plan this.  You can contact the shop directly on +44 7479 430404 .

How do I find the venue?

The Ramgarhia Sikh Sports Centre is near Sheepscar Interchange on Chapeltown road. Drive in through the ornate gates and up the slope to the sports hall at the back of the site.

There is plenty of free parking outside the front of the sports centre. Bus stops are right outside the gate.
