With skateboarding returning to the Olympics in 2024 our school skateboarding workshops are the perfect addition to a school’s Sports or Wellbeing Week.
We will be delivering our school skateboarding workshops in the North East, North West, Yorkshire, the Midlands, South West, South East, London and in the East of England this year. Please see below for dates available and contact us to find out more information or to make a booking.
The day’s schedule
Each school workshop day we deliver we usually run a total of five sessions across the day giving up to 150 learners a brilliant first experience of skateboarding. Learners will start off slow, learning footwork and basic floor skills before moving on to more advanced and rewarding tricks.
Space required
The best space for our workshops are on a school playground, however in the event of rain we will require use of the school’s hall to be able to deliver our sessions safely.
Equipment
All equipment is provided for learners to safely skateboard with us on the schools’ yard or indoor hall. This includes skateboards, helmets and safety pads.
Professional coaching
Our coaches are qualified skateboarding coaches with decades of experience. They work to the highest level to support and encourage learners whilst maintaining the fun energy that will radiate throughout the day. Our coaches are DBS checked, first aid qualified and fully insured.

Why Skateboarding
Skateboarding is a fantastic alternative to mainstream sports as participants can follow their own path, experiment at their own pace and there are absolutely no rules! It is pure creation and expression which is why we love skateboarding so much!
