Skate Club is a group mentoring program designed to progress people through the beginner and intermediate stages of skateboarding. The curriculum has been planned to keep people engaged in the sport as they advance through these stages.
The sessions incorporate various levels of technical skills as the skater progresses through the program. From the basics to intermediate skills in street and transition skateboarding. We track each students’ progress and actively demonstrate and describe necessary techniques to achieve the desired outcomes.
As we take the skaters through the sessions, we reinforce basic skills around skateboarding, injury prevention, safety and technique, along with skate park etiquette - immersing skaters in the skateboarding culture.
The program
During Skate Club sessions, skaters build confidence through improving their skateboarding skills. From balance, to agility, coordination and techniques.
Duration of each session is one hour and our coaches work with up to ten Skate Club members at a time.
The program is broken into stages, ranging from beginner to intermediate:
- Stage 1: Covers the basics around footwork, street and transition skills
- Stage 2: Continues into intermediate skills of footwork, street and transition skateboarding and skateboarding culture
- Stage 3: Covers intermediate street, transition skateboarding skills and skateboarding culture
