Welcome to Skate Like A Girl!

Skate Like a Girl is based in Seattle, WA with two chapters in Portland, OR and San Francisco, CA. We are building community. We are creating an all-female skate crew, and we want you to join us.
Skate Like a Girl strives to build community coalitions with other groups and organizations that are working to challenge oppression through education and dialogue, with the hope of creating better communities for everyone.
