Please keep in mind that although your child may have been taught a few moves on a skateboard, it does not necessarily mean that he/she will improve drastically with each Lesson. The development of skateboarding ability is a lifelong challenge that takes dedication and patience and each individual learns at his/her own pace. We are here to help, but if the skater does not practice outside of Skatepark, improvement will come at a much slower pace.
