OUR SKATE INSTRUCTOR

Michael D. from Waco, Texas!

I’m 26 years old and I currently own and operate a successful small business. I have been skating, and surfing for more than 10 now. I have been instructing with GoSkate since I was 23. For me, it’s a mutually beneficial way to give back and invest my time in helping the sport grow in a positive way. I love being a part of teaching the next up-and-coming superstars how to build a foundation. I know that with my 7 years of entrepreneurship, I am very aware of what it’s like to be a student as well as a teacher. Growing up with a single mother and two sisters, I know firsthand the benefits of having a mentor/instructor to guide me through learning. That being said, let me be your guide to better tricks, more stamina, and most importantly improved fun!
