Are you an aspiring roller skater wanting to learn some moves on skates? We'd love for you to give our adult discover roller dance class a go! Also at The Skate Sanctuary from 6.30 - 8.00 pm, this class is the perfect introduction for aspiring roller dancers. The session covers for 'non-dance and non-skate specialists' . In fact, you don't even need to wear skates in this class!
Come and learn solid foundations for your roller dance journey.
As we roll into WEDNESDAY, we're continuing our roller dance skills focus and flow session from 6.30 - 8.30 pm at the skate sanctuary. This is the final class of this month's focus move the Hez. Roller dance is incredibly powerful. When folks are able to dance together, it definitely fosters a sense of belonging.
This class is suitable for folks who have some roller dance experience - if you have none, we recommend you try our Tuesday night classes first. However, you are still more than welcome to come and give it a go! Feel free to attend this class either on or off skates, we understand roller dance can be very challenging.

Good news, we have two open-level practice slots on Thursday. Feel free to bring younger skaters from 6.00 - 7.30 pm at our open-level practice for all ages!
