About this Event
Skaters aged 5+ and all ability levels are warmly welcomed to our Family Friendly Friday roller disco.
The Skate Sanctuary Studio was created to support folks to develop confidence and support connection. We hope that people leave knowing one more person than when they came (though sometimes, there may not be anyone else skating!) Get your weekend started as you mean to go on! With a little bit of roller skating. We've got the games, the snacks and the tunes, we just need you!
What happens during the session?
While this isn't a coached session, our studio team will support you with hire skates, ensuring you have protective pads and that they are on correctly. If the session isn't too busy, they will also help you get started if you are new to skating .
If you'd like to learn other skills, we are happy to offer a couple of tips to support you to continue your skate journey, please note, however that our team needs to look after all the skaters in the session so. If you need more intensive tuition, consider booking a class or a private session at The Skate Sanctuary.
Skaters are welcome to use the space to practise their skate skills. We attract lots of folks at the start of their roller skate journey. We may play games or use equipment during the session - joining in is always optional.
To secure your place, we recommend booking in advance and will turn people away if the session is full.
We have a small amount of space for accompanying non-skating partners and pushchairs.
We now offer a monthly Skater Tots session for children aged 4 and under and recommend toddlers and young children attend this slower paced session designed for them. If you are bringing a non-skating babe in arms, that is fine!
