Introduction to skateboarding.
We teach safety rules and everything about the world of skateboarding, so that later our students can skate independently in any skatepark. We combine theoretical skate classes with practices. We teach techniques, style, flow between maneuvers, tricks, safety rules.
We talk about the history, pioneers, culture, rules and philosophy of skateboarding. We encourage camaraderie with other skaters, as well as respect for the environment that surrounds us and its nature. Skateboarding as a sport, culture and way of life.
Your first skate or surfskate lessons.
Learning to skate from the very basics: placement on the board, momentum, basic maneuvers, techniques and style as an art and form of self-expression.
We will go deeper into the world of skateboarding; We will correct bugs, refine techniques and styles. We teach stretching, warm-ups and breathing to face the sessions.
Learn skateboarding with professionals
We separate our classes by age and by homogeneous levels, so you will skate and learn with people of your same level and age and always supervised by qualified instructors who will be constantly supporting you, with dynamic and fun classes.
Video-corrections and constant explanations of all the doubts that may arise during the sessions. The last day will be used to review and remember everything covered during the course.
