"GET YOUR SKATES ON"
ONE HOUR INTRO SESSION
THURSDAYS OR SATURDAYS
"...Contrary to popular misconception, skating isn’t just for teenage thrillseekers: the diverse, sociable course I took was attended by people aged twentysomething to fortysomething, with jobs ranging from teachers to company directors."
Time Out London
"The rollerblading instructor's were champion, having an ace sense of humour yet still being v encouraging. "
Hotcourses
"In one lesson, I improved my skating, met some great people, burnt some calories....even the falling over was fun!"
Margaret Addison, Lewisham
"The instructors were brilliant and made loads of jokes to keep us entertained!"
Mr C. Darlington
"I turned up thinking I'd look like Rollergirl from 'Boogie nights' but ended up looking more like Frank Spencer lol...but very much enjoyed it".
Dr N Irwin
