WHY SOULFUL?

Good coaching. Excellent people. No judgement.

Skating can look intimidating from the outside. We make it feel possible, playful and much less lonely.

We are first and foremost trying to share our love of skating with more people. We see skateboarding as a medium to remind people how to play, how to connect with other like-minded people, no matter their age or background. 

 

Whether you’re at the start of your journey or mastering downhill and freeride, we cater to different abilities and disciplines within skateboarding. We offer personalised coaching that makes you smile and gets you outside, learning new things. ​

​

We teach all ages, and have 70-year-old couples, families, mums & sons, dads & daughters, best friends, dates, teenagers, mums finding themselves again...all kinds of people at different stages of life.

Longboarding and surfskating have more branches than most people realise: cruising, dance, freestyle, pump track, skateparks, sliding and more.

Danielle founded Soulful Skate Co. to help prevent that dreaded plateau, to help you level up your skating in a sport that relies on you teaching yourself off YouTube in a car park (we've been there and it's HARD!). We developed our very own Progression Tree to to take you from first pushes to bombing down hills (optional!).
