Yes, of course!

We are now living in a digital age where many students are choosing to access the creative arts [like skate tuition] online. It’s been done by so many, so there’s no reason that you can’t too! Online lessons make learning to roller skate so much more accessible for so many of us —especially if you happen to work unsocial hours, have a young family or have other similar responsibilities and challenges [like social anxiety]. Online lessons and communities are a fantastic bridging step and resource.

This course contains videos which show skills at close range, from the side or rear view where needed. You can also slow them right down or pause the video to get a better look at the positioning and footwork. This helpful for those of you who struggle to keep up with the more traditionally taught lessons.

If you’re at all unsure you can start with a one-month subscription and go from there. It’s very easy to cancel once subscribed [with no questions asked].

If you are a complete beginner, or an adult returning to roller skater after many years out, you should start by learning the absolute basic Core Skills Accelerator Course. 

Once you can perform a range of core skills well [like starting, stopping, gliding, turning and basic transitions], you can dive into the Beginners Rhythm Skating Foundation Skills Accelerator Course.

You can select a monthly or annual subscription. This allows you  to decide on a plan that suits your goals. It may be that you’re a fast learner, or want to cover a few gaps in your learning —therefore prefer to gain access for just one or two months. Or you might be an absolute beginner who wants to deep dive into working through the skills programme more thoroughly. Either way, you get to choose an approach that best fits your specific needs.

Everyone struggles with their roller skating skills progression at one point or another. When this occurs, first re-watch the lesson video to gain further clarity. It may be that you’ve missed something, or that you're moving to the next skill level too quickly. In this case, return to previous lessons to consolidate your knowledge. Then after some further practise, re-take the lesson.

If you’re still feeling stuck, head over to the community link, it may be that you get what you need within the community group. You’re welcome to share a video to help generate some clarity around your issue. You can also reach out to a coach or share your issue on a live Q&A [just go to the Skate Base Online Community for further details].

Ok, so you'll need a minimum of 12 X 4 feet of (obstacle-free) practise space to develop your skills. If you can get access to more—great! If not, you can definitely make it work with 12 X 4 feet!

During the 2020 global pandemic, I utilised a small space in my living room to practise all sorts of roller skating skills—you can too! Once you know how to execute a skill, you can take your it to the streets or the rink!

Yes, of course you can! If for any reason you decide that you’d like to cancel your subscription before your next payment cycle, you can do so [with no questions asked].

The entire course has been pre-recorded for your convenience. This means that you can access the recorded lessons on 2/7 —all year round!

Each lesson has been divided into smaller sub-categories. Each lesson contains:

✅ A short pre-recorded step-by-step lesson [with voice instructions, slow mo’s, close-ups and the ability to easily pause for a better/clearer view].

✅ Written step-by-step instructions.

✅ Keynotes to increase clarity.

✅ Access to the Skate Base Online Community.

It is also very easy to slow down or pause the video lesson at any point.

You can ask questions and share your ideas and experiences inside the online community [where coaches are available to help you achieve your goals].
