What we are doing,
RIGHT now.
SLAG is currently running an internship program at Seattle Girls' School, we have a group of amazing middle school gals that are picking up skating so fast! We have met 2 times so far, and talked about what it means to be a girl that skates. These gals are hecka sharp, supportive and shredders. Watch out! They are rolling off curbs and perfecting their ollies! Learn more!


Kristin is leading a pre-strech, girls are all about self-care! Spring 2008

 

We hear you,
LOUD & CLEAR
Skate programs for older gals. Due to a demand in skate programs for older gals, this summer we will expand regular programs for 18+ and 21+ gals! These will be an opportunity for you all to form skate friends.

We are setting up secret skate dates for gals 18+ and 21+.
If these schedules don't work for you, or you want to rally a group of your older gal pals to learn how to roll! Email us. We will put you on the list and email a week before we meet up. For more information check out events.


We are trained in:

• Teaching the mechanics of skateboarding
• Talking about issues of safety, self-care, and confidence
• Facilitating team building
• Dialogues and actions steps for anti-oppression & empowerment
• Training others to instruct skateboarding
• Fun all rolled into skateboarding.

Email us if you want to do organize a professional development workshop for your work.

Seriously. You will love it (and we won't let you get hurt, as long as you follow instructions and believe in yourself). We have experience working with all ages and cultures.
