Sonia is a super talented longboard dance and freestyle teacher. She's creative in her moves and always bringing together intricate combos. A real pro!
Danielle met with Sonia for a skate and asked her some questions to help you get to know her better.
What inspired you to start skating?
✨My brother was raving about longboarding which got me interested.
What advice would you give to someone starting out?
✨Meeting other skaters is extremely helpful. Sometimes one trick can take 5 days of learning by yourself or a few hours with the help of other skaters. Because they see you from the side and suggest adjustments to make to land the trick you want quicker. Another perk is you can build friendships this way, especially in Bristol, everybody is so lovely ❤️
Also, my advice would be to not put a lot of pressure on yourself, just enjoy the process and yourself.
And of course, listen to the music you prefer during the session. It often makes me keep practicing just because I can't stop listening to the songs I like.
But most importantly, wear your safety gear ❗️❗️❗️
