Grayson P.

My name is Grayson and I would love to be an instructor for you guys! I have been skating since I was 12. It has been off and on over the recent years due to work and family. I am skilled enough to definitely help someone understand the technique and knowledge needed for skateboarding. I have skated lots of verts (bowls, half pipes, ramps) as well as some street skateboarding. I am nowhere near the level of a sponsored professional but I understand skateboarding really well. I would give all my current knowledge and experience to help someone grow and enjoy their future skateboarding career. I am available Saturdays and Sundays at any time of the day.

They will learn to grow with their current experience level and understand how the physics of skateboarding works. The student will understand that falling and failing are just part of getting better and learning. They will learn how to fall properly to avoid injury. I'm a patient teacher and a fun person so the lessons won't feel to stressful. They will leave every lesson excited with new helpful knowledge learned and plenty of techniques and tricks to practice. Everyone has their own pace when it comes to learning skateboarding and every student will be taught at their own pace so it's not to overwhelming.
