Citiskate London - the inline skating professionals "brilliant course! Thank you so much for the patience, the laughs and (some) falls too.
I've been raving about the skating lessons to my friends too so expect some coming your way later in the year!" Claire from the May course
"Thank you for taking me from 'putt putt' to 'vroom vroom' in two courses. I stated in my first course
I'd like to skate to work and my instructor said it would be possible within weeks. It took one course to do it via the pavement and another course to take the roads. My instructor was the founder of the Friday night skate and Sunday Rollerstroll so I was in good hands! Mark, March course

and advanced sessions. You can also hire skates and keep them for the duration of the course so

That was fifteen years of skating the London Friday night skate! We've come a long way baby! In May 2016 the London Friday night skate was 15 years old! Over the
years Britney, William and even the sleepless insomniac David Blaine have all been there, done that
and got the T shirt.
Starting in May 2006 we followed the London-based route of the famous Monopoly board with
everything from Old Kent Road to Mayfair. And there were balloons. And free Red Bull.
