Bryant would be a great skate instructor because he has worked well with new skaters in the past as a skate instructor in Stamford, CT. He has a lot of patients with new skaters and knows what it’s like when you’re new and need time to learn. He’s very encouraging and will work with new skaters on new tricks and help them feel that they can definitely learn if they keep trying and never give up. He’s very self-motivated and because of that, he can see the potential in other people if sometimes they can’t see it themselves. He’ll never give up on anyone. He believes that anything is possible as long as you keep trying your best and keep pushing yourself until you’re victorious especially when it’s learning a new trick. He believes that if you fall just get back up and try again and not to get hung up on the fear of trying because you may a fall again. Falling isn’t only part of skating and helps us get better, but falling is part of life, so if you can get back up you can definitely learn. |

Looking for a fun/patient guy to show you or your kid the fun sport of skating? I’m your guy! I can teach any age 6+ and we’ll have a grand time doing it. No judgment zone here so no need to worry what level you’re at, everyone’s welcome, even if you’ve never stepped on a board! I’m 21 and have been skating since I was about 5. I’ve skated for a local team, and have taught quite a few people how to skate even before becoming an instructor. You pick the time and place as long as it meets standards we’re golden. Hope to meet some new skaters soon! |

Ever since I started skateboarding I felt the need to spread it to other people, is that it became such a positive outlet and expression for me. Skateboarding has taught me endless lessons, one being how powerful fear can be and how to overcome it. Sometimes trying a new trick causes mental blocks to form in your head. Mind over matter comes into play here when we see how hard it can be to physically do something when our thoughts are stopping us. Skateboarding teaches us to keep positive and open thoughts going otherwise you won’t have a successful session. I see lots of kids nowadays with more anxiety and mental blocks than ever, and I think that has to do with all the social media/clutter of this Society. Which is why I believe it’s so important to get outside and learn how to work hard for something you are passionate about. Another lesson I’ve learned through time is learning the nature of falling and getting back up no matter how bad you want to quit. Instead of seeing that slam as a failure, I’ve learned to see it as an opportunity to learn from it and try again!
I’ve always loved helping teach people to learn something, no matter what it is. I think life is all about helping one another, especially with passing along knowledge.
Spending time with kids is one of my favorite things to do! It brings me back to a feeling we all still have in us, that we may lose from time to time in adulthood. Children are the perfect reminder of how to have fun! Which can be found through skateboarding as well.
It’s never too late to learn. As much as I love kids, I also love people. I teach all ages. Skateboarding is something you can carry through your entire life.
I am very patient and calm in my teaching. I understand that learning new tricks can take a lot of time. Everyone’s personal learning experience will be completely unique to them. Some people pick it up naturally, and others might have to work a little bit harder to get to that same level. Either way, there is no right or wrong to the rate at which you are learning. I am critical with small details to help you hone in on exactly what you need to work on. I am 100% positive to give you all the confidence and support you need to succeed.
This form of art has changed my life in purely positive ways. I teach people how to skate in hopes they will have as uplifting and inspiring of an experience as I’m having. I teach them in hopes to create a safe, creative and positive place for them wherever they may be in life. I teach them because I know how life changing this can become for people. Skateboarding is a lifestyle!

Chris is an excellent skater. He started skating at 8 years old and hasn’t been able to put the board down since. Now at age 28, he’s still pushing. Chris is great at teaching on and off the board-and is always trying to progress with his own skills as well. He’s also great with kids and enjoys helping them on the road to success, at the same time giving them a healthy hobby and keeping the kids out of trouble. |

Jake is very detail oriented and patient when it comes to teaching. As a self-employed guitar instructor, he understands the importance of technique because it is the foundation of everything that will be learned in the future. This is especially important when it comes to skateboarding because of its physical requirements. Anyone could teach someone else how to kickflip for example, but what is more important is learning how to do it safely. Through years of skateboarding and videography (filming skateboarding), he has both seen and experienced the repercussions of failing to learn the correct way. Just like anything else in life, skateboarding takes a lot of practice, which is something that can’t be given to a student by their instructor. All a teacher can do is provide his/her student with the best and safest method of going through the necessary motions to learn. Jake’s philosophy, in teaching both skateboarding and music, is to guide his students as they progress, because muscle memory is the key component in learning almost any skill. |

Teaching runs in Spencer’s blood, as his parents were both teachers/professors in both college and high-school level courses. Growing up around educators his whole life he has had an inside scoop on the whole teaching process which has given him a communicative edge to instructing. Besides just teaching though, Spencer is an avid skateboarder with a vast knowledge of tricks and maneuvers that he is eager to share with his students! Spencer has been skating since he was 5 years old and has always taken his craft seriously. He enjoys motivating/spreading knowledge with others that share the same passion for skateboarding, and can teach anyone of any age willing to learn! (beginner/intermediate/advanced). |
