Introduction to Skateboarding


Vancouver Campus | 2:00pm–3:15pm

Skateboarding is a great form of transportation, but it can be tough to learn on your own! Coordination, pain tolerance, stress alleviation, precision, reflexes, and patience are just a few benefits of skateboarding. Hand, eye, leg, and foot coordination are all enhanced by skateboarding. It is especially important to be safe when learning a new skill, so this is the perfect FREE beginner session if you’ve always wanted to learn how to skateboard. Be prepared to learn these new skills while having fun! No experience or equipment is required. However, if you have a helmet of any sort, we recommend bringing it. If you do not have a helmet, one will be provided for you.

Registration deadline: November 14, 2022 @12pm
