Hi my name is John,
I have been  skateboarding for 5 years and have experience coaching skateboarding in a professional environment. I am offering 1 hour long private tutoring/coaching lessons for kids of all ages. I can take students from all skill levels to those who are comfortable with their board and know a few tricks to those who have no idea what a skateboard is at all.  I use a hands on progressive type of teaching were everything from riding to tricks is divided up into small simple steps that can be practiced repeatedly.  Skateboarding is an inexpensive social activity that can get kids out of the house and  learning new skills and activates.
