Roller skating has become so popular in the last year and I wanted to make a short video series where I can share the very basic skills needed to get off to a good start! The videos are intentionally short, because I know people will want to get rolling as quickly as possible, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll master each skill that quickly. Please don’t be disheartened if you can’t do each skill immediately! It just takes time and practice!

DISCLAIMER: Roller skating is dangerous. I always recommend that skaters wear safety equipment, such as a helmet, knee pads, elbow pads, and wrist guards but wearing these will not prevent all injuries. Please do not try anything beyond your own ability.
