Hi, I give private solo and group lessons for youth and adults. I am in the Berkeley area and would like to establish new clients.
I have 14 years experience running a skate program for a recreation in the past. I do offer group lessons as well and do feel most kids learn faster solo or in small groups.
Please message for more info. Thanks!
Brief lesson description
Through skateboarding, this course will provide students with an opportunity to learn skate mechanics, skateboard safety, and proper etiquette in a skateboarding environment. Although applicable skill development will be the primary goal of this course, other areas such as balance, knowledge of body movement while skating and personal growth and development will be promoted.
Safety Techniques
Proper Foot position
How to Ride and Push
How to Turn
How to do Tricks
how to balance, push, turn, proper foot placement, and how to stop. Regardless, of where you are at.. you can benefit from personalized instruction to meet your skill level.
Equipment: I recommend a board and at least a helmet. Other viable gear consists of elbow pads, knee pads, and wrist guards.
