Really fun experience! The instructor was very patient and very friendly. I would definitely recommend if you want to improve your tricks on your inline skates.

Made 5 new friends at my first (free) class. Must have made a dozen more since. The friendliest skate community in London! The tiered lesson levels are well structured and give you specific skills to work on in order to unlock the higher levels. I'm looking forward to unlocking level 2 and trying a skatepark class. The instructors are super encouraging and friendly. Their free street skates also have the best vibes I've seen on a London street skate.

London Skate Life is the most incredible community I’ve ever come across. It has opened my life up to so many different opportunities, Travelling, learning and teaching me so many new aspects of skating. The people are amazing and the tutors are so professional and so fun. I am glad to have come across this incredible group. 5*****

Put simply:I can't recommend London Skate Life enough.I bought my first pair of rollerblades 5 months ago from an instructor working at a partner shop based in Glocester Road. They spent time patiently advising me on the skates and there offered me a freebie lesson with London Skate Life. From first speaking to them and then taking my first lesson, I've been committed to learning with them and the rest of the London Skate Life instructors wherever and for as long as possible.Teaching:There are multiple instructors who are totally open insanely skilled and passionate about skating. They offer a variety of ways to learn all at reasonable prices! Group classes at different levels as well as 121s. They also teach at various locations around London so you should be able to find an instructor that works for you!The classes are always fun and engaging and skills taught in ways that meet your confidence levels. The instructors work to bed in the basics but also encourage you to try new things and challenge yourself which is great. My first lesson I could barely stand properly but I was working with partners on T-Stops, going backwards, and going down a ramp by the end. Not wholly succesfully (!) but safely and the positivity, support and motivation set a bar for learning which helped me progress quicker than I could have imagined!I've also had one 121 class and that was amazing. Learning with a different instructor meant a different style of teaching and so new ways to learn and vastly improve existing skills which I really appreciated.Community:I'm still relatively new to the community but it's already a very open and friendly one to be a part of. There's so much positiviety it's amazing. The instructors are friendly and keen to help everyone progress. They organise monthly free city skates for learners so they can get used to skating in the city and as part of a group. They arrange holiday events and trips abroad all because they love what they do and want to see all the students participate have fun and grow the community.Within the classes people naturally make friends and practice together. Everyone is equal and there are no egos - despite skill levels - which is perfect.There's so much to say but again, if you want to learn how to skate and be part of the skating community in London you absoutely must check out London Skate Life .

When I discovered London Skate Life last summer I was planning to learn how to stop and get some confidence to street skate, and hopefully meet a few people who I could sometimes skate with. Little did I know back then :) LSlife have become my 2nd life, I’ve met so many amazing people who I can start calling friends and there’re so many more to meet. Every time you think that’s it, you must have discovered everything, LSlife surprises you with a new experience - Halloween or Christmas themed street skating, games on skates, sticker hunt, trips to other countries with even more skaters, never ending fun challenges - the list goes on and there’s so much more I don’t know yet and looking forward to see.As for lessons - these are not your typical classes, these are so good that can’t even be called lessons, so you’re learning faster and better through having fun. All instructors are beyond simply being skilled and knowledgeable and good with people. They manage to create the atmosphere where you’re happy, motivated, and always challenged to do better and still support each other. They are so genuinely interested in what they’re doing that never stop teaching even if you meet them outside the class. The variety of lessons is also limitless, be it skatepark, jumps, slides, slalom or general knowledge - each class is different and with more great things to discover. You can also choose from many days and locations ones that suit you. Just don’t ask me to name my favourite instructor - I love them all! So if you want a full experience of skating - join London Skate Life and you’ll never want to stop. Thank you LSlife for being so wonderful - each of you!

So I had my first class with Aurora a couple of days ago and must say everything was positive. Good weather, good location, good hill down and of course a very good teacher willing to teach and offering a few different options for us to learn. Just brilliant. Thank you.

I went down to the Sunday sports hall Training session, with my awkward 13 year old. She went in feeling and looking apprehensive, but left with the biggest smile and new found love for the sport. I encourage parents especially, to try and get their young people involved. Instructors are wonderful and experienced in dealing with people, young and old from all walks of life. They have a wonderful welcoming and family-like ethos, we felt very much at home.

Amazing experience on LS1 class. The fact that they have alternative locations for when it rains gives you so much confidence to try different surfaces.I learnt so much from Stephen, came to the class with lots of things to polish but he gave me great tips to improve. Super happy.
