[@Skatie]

It’s all about having fun and not putting too much pressure on yourself. 💕💕⭐️⭐️⭐️ Enjoy the journey xx

[@licksnkicks1166]

Katie you are so amazing. I always watch one of your videos before I skate. You are a lovely teacher! 🫶🏻

[@Skatie]

Thank you so much. Have fun skating 😎🤩🌟🛼

[@kellyclark7517]

Digging the dance plugs! I had a neighbor takeoff. My toe stops to put in the dance flags and he was mortified and could not believe why I was throwing such a great piece of equipment in the trash.😂😂😂

[@Skatie]

😜 😂

[@anidleteen]

I go to roller disco twice a week and even though I love to learn tricks while doing it, it'll also be fun to actually dance too

[@Skatie]

I do love a good boogie! 🕺🕺💃💃😎😎

[@sunnydaze136]

Love your videos Katie Skatie! Thank you you're one of the best

[@Skatie]

Thank you so much 😎🛼🤩

[@physchemmaths7917]

This is the perfect video for me whos just starting out! Its not too tricky that i cant do it and just tricky enough that it actually helps me learn. Thankyou for making this video 💖💖💖

[@Skatie]

So glad it’s helped you xx 🛼⭐️💕

[@carolynn3175]

love the crescent step!!

[@Skatie]

It’s such a great move. So simple but it can have so much style.

[@Talimav00]

the way you teach is so amazing and detailed. Thank you

[@Skatie]

Thank you so much xx Hope you’re enjoying your skating ⭐️💕🛼

[@koolhandlukemakemyday8812]

You’re so Good with these instructional videos. I’m looking forward to learning from you and your amazing videos! I just purchased my skates at 53. It’s been a minute. I can’t get enough of your videos. 👍🏻😎 And I always love your flared jeans! I love wearing mine! 60’s/70’s vibe! ☮️

[@Skatie]

Thank you so much. It’s so nice to hear the videos are helping you. There’s something about skating in flares that just feels right! 😂 🕺

[@SaraKin123]

Hahaha.. Lovely, Katie! Thanks for the always useful tips, let's keep drilling 🔥

[@Skatie]

Absolutely! Drill it, till you kill it!

[@AvocadoWaves]

I’m so excited to try these out!! I’m just getting started on skates but this makes me think I can start dancing sooner than I thought 🥳

[@gabrielbenachir9977]

Your drilling killed me 😂😂😂😂 I love your videos ❤

[@Skatie]

😂 thank you. We love to add in silly bits. We have so much fun coming up with the next pun or joke. Sometimes the lesson can get a bit intense so adding a bit of fun hopefully helps to keep things entertaining. 💕💕⭐️⭐️

[@GALAXYSARAH]

Are these working for roller blades to ? They are great ✨️

[@QuadzQuad]

Great video, thank you

[@Skatie]

Thank you ⭐️⭐️💕💕

[@AvySkylla]

Please make more videos about skate moves for dancing, maybe particularly those dance moves using toe stop/jamplugs like compass spin or something similar? 😊❤️

[@Skatie]

Great idea. 🛼⭐️💕

[@alimohamedasad]

I really wanna thank you for the begginer lessons cause I need to start from the basics & I saw the crab ( Sweetness move from Roll bounce) in your lessons, I will be following you to learn more, walaikum assalam 👍👍thank you. Ali☪️ begginer skater👍respects to you

[@luablau]

5:27 Cross steps look like Jack Sparrow ❤️🏴‍☠️

[@Skatie]

Omg! Yes! Yes! It’s definitely the arms. I’m immediately renaming this move the pirate step! 😂 😂 🏴‍☠️

[@luisotoya3358]

I have a question: does it makes sense to switch between toe stops (street skating) and jam plugs (indoors/rink). Please advise.

[@Skatie]

Absolutely. I do. I always wear stoppers outside and then go jan plugs for inside. I find I can still do most moves both ways!

[@kellyclark7517]

Ditch the toe stops n fully EMBRACE the dance plugs! It will make you a superb skater! The only thing that should matter whether you’re skating indoor or outdoor are your wheels

[@regina6827]

Hello. I am looking around for Damce Boot Setup. Are you wearing Edea Boots and the Damce plate? Thanks

[@Skatie]

I’m on roll-line dance plate and Risport dance boots.

[@onehourescape6505]

You have the roll line Dance plate! How did you choose the cushions and bearings for it? Im struggling with my new Dance plate and dont know what is wrong - its just way too slow and stiff. I thoulght either the cushions are too hard, but they are exactly for my weight. Or that i tightened them too much, because the click system on this plate is hard to understand - but i dont think its tight. Then i thought that bearings are just slow, because i bought some cheap ones. I dont know what to think :D Ive heard that the dance plates kind of should be a bit stiffer, but why... Did you have any similar experience?

[@Skatie]

I love the dance plate. It’s so smooth. However, I do run the soft cushions which are a step down from the recommended medium for my weight but I found the medium far too hard and not as responsive. The click action, remove the kingpin keeper screw and adjust the but so it’s showing a couple of threads, then adjust from there. That worked great for me. Just make sure to pop the kingpin keeper screw back in when you’re done. I know a few skaters on the dance plate that have gone down a cushion and it’s made a big difference. As for bearings I tend to run the cheaper stuff. Most I’ve ever paid for bearings is £40. Haha. That was for some open ceramics which I do really like but most of mine are zz cheapies.

[@kathoh6855]

The crescent step is a lovely step. Always smooth and versatile with it🛼

[@Skatie]

I definitely agree. It feels so expressive. ⭐️💕

[@regina6827]

Also, are your skates laced all of the way up? 🤔 Thank you

[@Skatie]

Yes. I always lace all the way up as I like the ankle support of the boot.

[@friendsmart4330]

Can u make a video for inline skating also please

[@Skatie]

Sadly although I’ve tried it I’m not an experienced inline skater. A lot of it transposes across but there are inline only skills and tricks that I wouldn’t be able to teach. There are some great inline KZbin channel though.

[@discobean54]

Can you get better at roller skating?? I honestly haven't been on skates in years since I was 16-17 and I'm now 40 and those were rollerblades. I remember finding roller blades to be much easier for me than skates had been years before that... although in all fairness the extent of my skating was limited to once a year when I'd unbury them from the bottom of my closet, dust them off, and spend a night roller skating at my friend's birthday party. I was usually pretty stiff and sore the next day. I would actually like to get a pair of roller skates and try it again. I'm sitting here wondering if you can improve with practice and time on skates even if you're maybe not so coordinated and loose control and trip on your own feet in skates?

[@Skatie]

100% time and regular practice makes a huge difference. In person lessons are a good idea too if you have any nearby.

[@tuples.multuples]

Hello~! I am a beginner who's learning how to skate forward and do bubbles. I still a bit inconsistent about those skills. Could I try out these moves?

[@Skatie]

Hold on to something and see how you feel. You might surprise yourself. Plus these moves really help with your balance too.

[@tuples.multuples]

@@Skatie Thank you! Just about an hour ago, I actually tried the slide walk (first part of the video) and I quite enjoyed myself. However, I chickened out with the others after trying side to side stepping because I was rolling a little bit and I guess that needs some work so I won't fear falling. But I will get there! Thank you.

[@Skatie]

@@tuples.multuples you superstar. Well done x ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@houghjanis]

I bought roller skates becausei saw your videos and I wanted to learn how to skate but then my parents immediately made me return them😢

[@Skatie]

Oh no! Maybe you could go to a local rink first to try it out before spending money on skates? ⭐️💕🛼

[@calebfeiring5519]

You are a great skater and a terrific teacher 🔥🛼🩵 jazzy crab ftw
