Roller Skating defined my youth...as a youngster in the 6th grade everyone that was cool was at the local rink. I was afraid of what others would say about me because I didn't know how to skate. Took the plunge, over the weeks and months until I mastered the art. 1 year later at the local rink I got a job there and before I knew it I was teaching lessons and on the local Roller Hockey Team. That was in the early 1970's and I've been skating ever since. 65 in 2022 and still two-stepping. Never to young or to old. Great Video.

Thank you!! Decided to go roller skating for the first time in 8 years, and found your tutorial helped me remember the most tips. The ones about dropping the hips low and shifting your weight to move were big tips that none of other skating tutorials made clear. In the two hours I skated, I only fell once! Thank you for creating such an engaging, memorable video!!

[@JERRYR708]

Chin up, shoulders straight, stomach core tight, arms out, palms down, drop your hips and bend your knees. Transfer body weight from left to right side to side, feet in a V-position. Practice, practice consistently. Do not look down! (I tend to do that when skating backwards). I enjoyed the video and learn a lot from repetition drills and making it fun. Nice Gold Glitter Stardust skates...(-:

This is the best quick-start video on KZbin. I watched this a few times, then hit the roller rink for the first time and had a great time. Debbie's a great teacher - explains things in a way that you remember them, is funny, and the camera work is good. My friends at the rink asked me how I learned so fast and I just told them "High beams on, snack zone in, fun zone out" (I'm sure I'm misquoting Debbie a bit, but I got the gist!)

[@catherinen1800]

I just started skating two days ago and man the first day was rough, totally fell onto my back. But I'm so glad to have found this video. So many useful tips esp with the shifting of weight from side to side. Can't wait to try some more tomorrow!

[@Dirtydeborahharry]

Best part of this vid is at 4:30 when you tell us to "sit ya a$z dowhn" LMBO I love your vids! They are always great. Thanks hun!

Someone has to say it! ;)

[@poiisonivy8937]

IKR!!! I cracked up 😊💜⭐💜😊

[@nekiakelley3792]

Jessica Starling I said the same thing😆😆

[@genesisleonard1867]

I can skate... as in I can move around the rink on my own. I do however look like a disabled flamingo and have fallen a few times. I want to actually be able to skate without constantly feeling like I’m going to wipe out 😂

[@koryu.]

Thanks for thiss!!! My school is hosting a skate night soon, and i have literally never skated in my life!!! I dont wanna embarrass myself so this is a blessing

Just purchased my 1st ever pair of skates. Currently in my living room with these new skates on trying to practise lol. This lady is VERY good at teaching, very clear instructions and I feel I am learning quick through the teachings of this lady - so thank you very much. And good luck and happy skating to any new beginner skaters out there :)

[@thatchickron2719]

I used to go to roller rinks with friends when I was a kid and I was pretty good back then, my gramma bought me a new pair of rollerskates last week and I've even practicing everyday! Your videos have been so helpful and so encouraging!! 🤩🥰 thank you so much for making the task of learning seem less daunting and for being an awesome, fun, friendly face to learn with! 🥳 Also, when you said "keep your feet in a 'V' formation" I thought "perfect! I'm duck footed anyway 🤣" lol finally a sport I was built for 😍

[@702luxor]

"snack area" I knew I was missing something.

[@Dirtydeborahharry]

hahhahaha! Are you missing your snack area cuz I am not! LOL! I just try to keep mine at a manageable level ;)

[@phuturephunk]

And of course I have a bday party tonight to attend and it's a rollerskating party. Never done it. Found this video. Your delivery is warm and fun and put me at ease about the basics. I'm gonna screw it up and plan to be bruised tomorrow, but you made me a bit less scared. Thanks for that. :D

[@RockyLuvsJonghyun]

phuturephunk how did it go lmaoo

[@Dirtydeborahharry]

Awwww :) This is the greatest! So happy for you. Can't wait to hear how it went.

[@untamedornithoid]

[@khairirodriguez5428]

Lol! Yeah I have to go to my Bffs party and it’s a rollerskating party! I have no clue how to skate!!! So I look up at some videos! I feel like I’m the only one who doesn’t know how to skate, but Im pretty sure I’m not the only one though!

[@Dirtydeborahharry]

@@khairirodriguez5428 You are in good company! Have fun. Keep hips low, knee flexible and chin up. If you fall, get up right away and laugh a lot!

[@SubSonicGorilla]

Keep it nice ‘n tight.

[@ZzLando]

We're doing a unit it Physical Ed. and it's on skating. I've never skated in my life. Today I had no clue what I was doing and fell on my arse at least 4 times, I had to crouch down and use my hands to move if I got stuck in the middle of the ring. I hope this video will help me. Thank you!

[@idontdothiscalmthing1732]
