The International Inline Skating Association was formed in 1991 as a non-profit organization to advance inline skating as a recreational activity, competitive sport and prosperous industry. Through the support of major inline manufacturers, retailers and thousands of inline skaters, the IISA developed safety and educational programs, worked to protect and expand access to public skateways, sponsored inline educational programs such as the Inline Certification Program and National Skate Patrol, and sanctioned events and competition.

ICP/IISA

The ICP (Inline Certification Programme) is a global standard for inline skating instructors. Divided into three levels of qualification, this certification guarantees you a high quality of teaching. All of our instructors are qualified, with Mark being one of the three level 3 instructors in the UK. If you are thinking of lessons we highly recommend ourselves (obviously!) but encourage you to only use ICP qualified skate schools

Club Blue Room

Club Blue Room is one of London's largest skate retailers. With a wide range of skates, both inline and quad, and helpful staff you would do well to visit their Marble Arch store on Edgware Road to get your first pair of skates.

“My husband and I decided to attended one of Mark’s group beginner sessions earlier this year. We were so impressed with his teaching skill and professionalism that we decided to embark upon private lessons. Within just a few sessions we we’re confidently up and about, and now a couple of months on are now whizzing around Hyde Park and just about to embark on our first Wednesday Skate.

We never would have thought we could do some of the things that we now can... but with Mark's years of experience, skill, patience and reassuring approach it seems anything is possible.

Mark is a fun and honest guy, and ensures that we’re safe at all times. I wouldn’t go anywhere else for a skate lesson! Whether you want to learn the basics or take your skating to the next level, I believe Mark will be able to help you and highly recommend his services.”

With the credit crunch upon us and the cost of public transport rising, it’s not surprising that people are looking for alternative ways of saving money. An environmentally-friendly method of transport that is completely free helps you get fit into the bargain may sound too good to be true, but it exists in the form of a pair of inline skates, more commonly known as good old rollerblades!
