What you will learn in your lesson

If you are a beginner we will work out what our natural stance is, regular or goofy. We will then follow the skills in the beginner programme.
If you are more accomplished we can either work on your street skateboarding skills and learn to ollie, or you can learn to ride ramp; how to pump (keep up your speed) and to drop-in. Your skateboard lesson will last 1 hour.
What should you wear for your skateboard lesson?
Please wear skate shoes or soft-soled shoes, and clothes you don’t mind getting a little scuffed or dusty..

All the tutors are really great with the kids, their patience and their gentle style of teaching is perfect. Lessons are safe, inspiring and they adapt really well to each child's needs. Couldn't recommend enough.

The group lessons at Peckham HQ are amazing, the class sizes are small, the teachers are all very kind, patient and knowledgable. Our 5 yr old has been attending for a couple of months and is learning so quickly. We always recommend School of Skate to everyone we know!

This worked well as a birthday party attended by a mixed group of 10 and 11 year olds (and one 8yo). Elliot pitched it at exactly the right level, showing them a basic skill then giving them a chance to practice it on their own before bringing them back together to try something new. Everyone joined in from those who had skated before to those, including the birthday boy, who had never touched a skateboard.

Just wanted to say thanks again for the lesson yesterday, the kids both really enjoyed it and are keen to do another one again sometime!

Thanks for the lesson on Sunday at Victoria Park Skatepark - the instructor was great, kind and supportive, and my daughter (7) loved it and her confidence has immediately sky-rocketed. We'll be back!

My two boys had a great day at School of Skate camp. They really enjoyed the variety of activities throughout the day and came home enthusiastic to practice more! Thank you!

I booked a lesson to try skateboarding for the first time. Less than an hour before it was meant to start, I got a short email saying that my reservation was cancelled. I'm now sat next to the closed building and I'm very confused. Hoping that there will be a refund, and wondering how I could reliably book lessons in the future.Update: I did get an email clarifying that there was a technical issue, and it provided a code that can be used for an extra booking. Despite the technical trouble, I appreciated the responsiveness. I've yet to attend a lesson still, but I'll update my review after I do that!Update: went to a lesson - and it was brilliant! Would def recommend

Had my son’s birthday party at School of Skate and all the kids had a blast. The space is fantastic and the instructor was very patient with a bunch of 6 year olds! Would highly recommend.

My 14 year old nephew had several lessons at School of Skate as a gift from me and his Uncle. He went to Victoria Park in East London and was taught by the incredible Soren! My nephew would come away feeling happy, confident and proud in his new skills!! I could also see the progress and passion for skating emerge after lessons with Soren. Soren has a natural ability with a range of ages and has a calm and patient demeanor. My nephew would come home and sing Soren's praises and said "he was a pretty cool guy and a great teacher!" Which from a teenager is high praise indeed!!Thanks again to Soren and the team. You made summer fun!

I had a one-on-one class with Soren P from School of Skate this week. It was a lot of fun and he gave me some great tips - even managed to drop into a decent ramp unassisted by the end (something I had never done before). Would highly recommend! Cheers Soren 🙂

We had a birthday party at School of Skate for our 7 year old at Peckham Rye. They had a blast. To quote one of the kids “Best Party Ever!”

I had my first skate lesson today and it was super!!! Rick was attentive, experienced and helped me progress very quickly. I am learning to surf skate so it was great to find somebody able to give me exercise specifically for this. Thanks!

This is an incredible class, my kid has improved so much in confidence and ability over just a few classes. the teacher is amazing, holding together a mixed ability class with a real ability to understand each student’s needs. Highly recommend.

Nilo ran a party for my son and his friends (12 x 5-6 year olds!) and it was fantastic! Most were quite nervous at the beginning, having not skateboarded before, however by the end of it their confidence and skills had really grown and they were all beaming with smiles.The parents have been passing on many thanks for an awesome party too.Highly recommended. Thank you School Of Skate!

My 8 year old has gained so much in confidence since having private lessons with Nilo and in just four sessions his technique has progressed so much. He absolutely loves Nilo. Highly recommend.

Fantastic skateboarding lesson, great experience and lots of fun! Jonty managed to give lots of attention to each one of the kids. He made the lesson fun and engaging but also tailored the practice to help each one of them to improve their skills. They all progressed really fast and gained a lot of confidence.

Stuart is a fun and skilled teacher and my 8 yr pld and his friend had a great time. They finished the lesson feeling more confident having learned new skills. I would highly recommend these sessions.

I took my 7 year old son for a 1 hour private lesson with his friend at School of Skate. He really enjoyed himself and progressed far faster in that hour than he ever had done before. We now have a set of things to work on to improve, and will definitely be booking another lesson in future.

My son does the beginner skateboard lessons at Charlton park and he's loving it. Nilo (the teacher) is brilliant, really knowledgeable, patient, enthusiastic, and excellent with the kids. Would highly recommend. So glad we found School of Skate

Rick was a great tutor for our 10 year old boy who is allergic to exercise. At the end of the 1 hour lesson he did not want to attend in the least, he announced "BTW I'm so coming back next week"! He has a mountain to climb in terms of learning to skate board but is in the right hands for this task. The class was great as instead of all the participants being given the same instructions, each child was taught what they needed to learn for their individual pace, skill level & past experience. We were very impressed with the calm, considerate & expert attention to each child's unique needs

We booked a private skateboarding lesson for our sons aged 6 and 10 with Stuart at the Folkestone Gardens Skatepark in Deptford. Our boys are both keen skateboarders and have different ability levels. Stuart was able to differentiate the lesson brilliantly and both boys made excellent progress throughout the lesson. Our sons had a great time and are keen to return for more tuition with Stuart who also provided us with guidance on appropriate skateboards to help the boys make even better progress. We cannot rate School of Skate more highly and would like to thank Stuart for his expert and friendly guidance. We will be coming back for more!

My kids (10&7) had a couple of private lessons with Stuart and Mia over the Easter holidays. They both loved it and gained a lot of confidence. The progress they’ve both made has amazed me. They are at different levels, but both teachers tailored the class so they both got lots out of it. My daughter (7) particularly loved having Mia teach her.
