In Beginner Rhythm Skate Class, you'll learn a variety of rhythm skating routines and choreography. Some of the routines have a base rhythm skating pattern and then call outs off of base like “Downtown” or “G-Slide”. You'll learn how to follow the leader and understand when to execute moves. In this class we can really slow it down and drill it to build muscle memory.
