We pride ourselves on creating a skateboarding environment that is accessible, safe, and welcoming for all girls. This is why we have built a GIRLS-ONLY program for any girl or person identifying as a girl to join if they do not feel comfortable in our other programs.

All Girls Course

Program Overview

These weekly 90-minute indoor sessions are for anyone who identifies as a girl, ages 10–17, whether new to skateboarding or experienced, and looking for a coached environment. Skaters can get tips, video analysis, or just encouragement to try something new.

For beginners, we focus on fundamentals like pushing, stopping, foot positioning, and balance, while incorporating fun tricks to build confidence and a sense of accomplishment. With custom-built progressive features, there’s something for everyone to explore and enjoy.

Our programs are flexible and unstructured, adapting to each skater’s skill level, goals, and confidence. Our dedicated coaches, deeply connected to the skate community, provide personalized guidance and serve as inspiring role models
