Sunday Skate Club is all about getting together and practising with other skaters at the same level as you and to make progressing less challenging as well as loads of fun. The park can often be an intimidating place to come to with so many good skaters around, and so many spectators, especially in the summer months.

It's lead by ICP Level 3, Master Instructor Mark Davies who will be on hand to answer any of your questions, help you with your skills and whatever you're practising. Mark is also in the habit of throwing in some other cool stuff into these sessions.

They are two really great skills for any skater especially if you do any of London's street skates or use your skate to go pretty much anywhere, they are also two really great skills for hockey players.

The Lunge turn is essentially a Parallel Turn but you don't have to slow down so much to do it. In-fact it's exactly that, a speed turn.

Kensington Gardens

This is a really lovely place to skate, it's next to Kensington Palace and the round pond. The road is smooth which is great for skating and there's lots of place to sit and relax.
