Learn to roller ski courses starting soon - book now

Make 2024 the year you take up roller skiing.  Our Spring courses start in west London on 3rd March and in the Cambridge area on 23rd March.  Both follow the same format which means that you’ll learn classic technique at the first three sessions and then get an introduction to skate technique at the last two.  See more

You can choose between signing up for:

  • the course with equipment included, this is good if you can commit to all the course dates and want to progress faster, or
  • any five sessions of tuition only then add equipment hire to match the technique – you select the dates when you want to attend.  This is best if you can’t make all the course dates [sessions are repeated later in the year], or you prefer to focus on a specific technique. 
  • You can also book single sessions.

Book your place now - before 1st March for west London & before 21 March for the Cambridge area.
