"My Skate Style & What I’d Love to Teach

Skating has become such a huge source of joy, confidence, and freedom in my life, and I’d love nothing more than to pass that feeling on.

My heart lights up when I see women, especially those who’ve been thinking about trying skating but feel too intimidated to begin. Maybe it’s the fear of falling, not fitting in, or just not knowing where to start. I get it, and I’d love to help you move past that fear and step into the joy of skating.

I want to create a safe, welcoming space for women of all ages to start surfskating. No pressure, no judgment, just support, stoke, and fun. Whether you're 8 or 58, if you've got that tiny spark of curiosity, that pull toward trying something new and joyful, I’m here to help you fan it into a full-on flame.

My favourite skate styles include:

• Park riding & bowls – I love the rhythm and playfulness of riding bowls and building flow

• Snaps & slides – they’re punchy, expressive, and addictive once you get the hang of them

• Flow & style – I’m always working on riding with more fluidity and grace

• Cruising cities – nothing beats carving and pumping through urban spaces, just vibing with the streets

I’m also constantly working on my own style, taking coaching from surfskate pros to better understand the deep connection between body and board. I'm refining my technique every chance I get, so I can not only improve my own riding but share those insights with others in a clear, empowering way.

I want to teach the foundations that help you feel confident, in control, and truly free on your board. I believe skating can be a form of self-expression, therapy, and joy, and I’d be honoured to help you take your first roll into it.

If you’ve been watching from the sidelines, wondering if skating is for you, this is your sign. Let’s skate!"
