This is our most gentle roller dance class, designed to introduce the roller dance skills and techniques we have developed since 2015. This is a 4-week course. Although you can buy individual class tickets, attending all 4 classes will help you progress more, as the course builds on skills each week. ***Offer: buy all 4 classes and receive a free FNS ticket at the end of the course *** While no previous dance experience is necessary, we do think you will get more from the workshop if you are able to stand still, roll forwards and step from side to side on your roller skates. If you don't feel confident to join in on skates, you are welcome to wear your shoes or socks and join in with wheels when you feel ready. Fundamental roller dance skills will allow you to fully develop and understand body position and how this can support you. Why do we love roller dance so much? It fosters a sense of belonging when folks are able to dance together. Roller dance is incredibly powerful and we have had the privilege of being in spaces where skaters don't speak the same language, but are able to join in with the same steps in dance. It supports fantastic footwork and technique that will support all other forms of roller skating. Especially balance. It doesn't require a lot of room, so you can practise in a smaller space - like The Skate Sanctuary! It's great fun. It's a fabulous warm up You will become a more confident skater and learn to be more patient with yourself. Skate Hire Skate hire is available from the front desk for £3 per session - you can pay by cash or card Drinking water is available and we have a selection of hot and cold refreshments for sale.
