Let's Get It Started!

If skating is new to you, there are some things that can help you get started.  The first and most important is to have a good attitude.  Learning something new is hard and saying "I can't do this" and not giving it a try will leave you stuck on the bleachers.   Here in the gym we can help you get started by getting used to the roll of skates on carpet.  The carpet will slow the wheels down so you can learn to balance.  






Everyone falls when they are learning, so it's important to learn how to get back up.  You will get on your hands and knees and put one foot up on the skate in front of you.  Then you will put your hands on that knee and push yourself up to a stand.  Remember...everyone can learn how to skate if you have a good attitude and try your best.
