    OUR SKATE INSTRUCTORS

    Joshua M. from Akron, Ohio!

    I’m Joshua Mace, a 27-year-old graphic design student who enjoys skating on a daily basis as means of exercise and stress release. Skateboarding offers great potential to young people as a means of improving confidence and self-reliance. While not a team sport in itself, it is the culture of skateboarding that provides a backdrop for our youth to relate to, all while giving them an outlet for creative expression and personal growth.

    Alexander M. from Akron, Ohio!

    Alex has skated for 7 years and continues to do so. He is an intermediate-level skateboarder himself and retains the ability to do intermediate-level tricks (ollie, kickflip, heelflip, 360 flips), as well as perform all of them in the switch stance. He is a college student with a great deal of responsibility and is incredibly family oriented. He is good with kids and retains a great deal of patience for those that may not learn quickly. He would be honest in his opinion regarding whether or not the student is progressing at a reasonable pace for the number of lessons provided or if there should be more practice/time dedicated outside of lessons in order to see improvement.
