YES. i fractured my elbow because I fell backwards, and went wide instead of getting low and squatting. my palm caught all of my weight. There is definitely a right way to fall
Yep I’ve skated before but barely and got Into it again the first day I got my skates I got into it and learned a bit more shakes knees and all but stayed low! All my falls didn’t hurt so far so good!🤟
Timestamps for me or anyone else trying to follow. I love these!!! 1:01 1. Sticky skating 2:17 2. Bubbles 3:15 3. Ski shuffles 3:47 4. Sidestep 4:40 5. Standing in one foot 5:45 6. Jumping 6:18 7. Open the door 7:58 8. Rolling C 8:37 9. Front crossovers 9:16 10. Loosen up!
LMAO I literally appreciate this comment so much lol. Laughing tears 😂 After I posted this and re-watched it, I was like, "please someone make a joke about Kyle's voice because how awkward I didn't edit that out" lol. You made it better.
Quick tip: when doing bubbles, don’t actually keep going until your toes/heels touch! Stop just before then and begin your new bubble! You’ll clash and fall if you accidentally bump your toes/heels:-)
You know, I didn't even know i was already doing bubbles as I use that skill to slow down but now I can try and use it for backwards skating bc I'm still new and don't know how to skate backwards
Bro I finally had a "click" moment last week and it's because instead of trying to skate back and forth across my patio I began practicing bubbles. I feel like I have made more progress in balance and weight distribution in this past week than I have in my first month!!! I don't bust ass all the time anymore and I'm starting to get the movements down for turning quickly. This video is so so helpful thank you 😤😭💞
To people that have a REALLY hard time with balance at first: try some of the stand in place drills with skates on a carpet, grass, or yoga mat. All of those will keep you from rolling too easily. I have been finding that helpful and I've noticed more stability when I'm on slick surfaces.
I'm 47, have a weak right knee and have never skated in my life, willing to wear every and any padding to learn. I've always wanted to learn and still want to. My son says I'm asking for a trip to an emergency room lol
Do it!! It’s taking me ages to learn but I’m enjoying every minute of it, improving each time is so satisfying and so fun. Sometimes you’ve just got to take some risks! 🥰🙌
There may be some on this channel, as well (I'm new here but excited to check it all out! ) but Dirty Deborah Harry's School of Skate channel has lots of great tutorials on how to practice falling (yes, falling! Build muscle memory into your falls and you're less likely to flail your way into an injury) and stopping effectively, and she's an older lady, too, so she gets it 😆 (I say that as something of an older lady myself. We don't bounce or heal like we used to hahaha) (And no disrespect to this lovely creator, I love this channel and your teaching style, and can't wait to watch all of your videos! )
I'm 46 and have never skated either ... learning a new skill is awesome! Good for you and keep at it. I don't get a chance to practice often but any step forward is progress. You can do this and have fun. I just learned to balance lol now to move forward hahahaha.
I'm 54 and just took up skating again! Been out skating twice last week and twice this week. I'm still sore from it all but it felt great! Just take your time, don't over do it, and you should be enjoying yourself very soon!
90° heat 🔥 😤 😅 no thank you! That's why I only skate at night lately lol it's tew much! I can't handle it! I'm a vampire from way back (graveyard shift for 15 years and in my personal life, so, basically forever lol) You really put in that werk and we appreciate you for it! Xo xo
yay! yes super helpful- especially loved the outfit and setting changes ! made it easy to rewatch drill by drill (thank you!)- I watched a second time and took notes . So happy to be back skating again at 55. Roller skating restored my mental health when I had a really rough time in my 20's. It's the best therapy there is and I'm an LMFT!
I'm back on the same skates my parents bought me for my 16th birthday--I turned 51 this year so I think it's time for new wheels and bearings! Thank you for posting this video!!
Omg ..its good to hear others returning to skating! I’m 56 and haven’t skated since high school. I really miss it and in my mind, my body can still do it. I want to try quad skating outdoors..a little worried about falls and breaking a bone or two😬
i tried the sticky skating and shifting weight to each leg for 2 hours today, and i already learned a lot/got so much better!! really appreciate this vid, will be returning for the rest of the drills :))
I really enjoyed this video. I just picked up skating and decided to take a really casual approach to it so it stays fun. And this video made it feel just so relaxing and fun! Thanks so much!
I made the most progress I have in months with this tutorial! I have been trying to learn for almost a year and have been so frustrated with myself. I think I finally understand the mechanics of some of these moves from watching you. ❤❤❤
Aw this just made my day to read. Thank you ☺️ So happy to hear it and hope you’re having a fun time out there skating! Grateful to have been a part of your journey 💕
i don’t know if you remember me but i’m carolyn, we met at reach work camp back in 2014 !! 😊 i had no idea you made youtube videos about roller skating, that’s so amazing. keep it up !!
You're so welcome :) You got this! I made up the name "rolling C", it's just what I call it so nothing super technical tbh haha. I'm so happy you found this helpful!
I am waiting for my skates but easing my impatience watching tutorials lol. love love love the outfits, choices of location, drills and skates. Thank you so much!
This video helped a lot! I used to skate as a kid, but lost that skill over the years. I’ve really been wanting to regain that ability and didn’t know where to start. Thank you so much! 💛
This is great! An extra tip would be to practice static foot placement on grass or carpet to increase confidence before attempting will rolling around. Happy skating all!
I used to skate a lot as a kid, and now as an adult I want to get back into it just for fun. Thanks for this video for tips and reminders on how to do it! :)
This has really been helping me a lot!! Haven't gotten through all of them only about half. Slow and steady. I appreciate your platform and all the vids you've made thusfar. please keep making videos to help us beginner skaters. you seem like a super cool, unproblematic skate QUEEN and I look forward to more knowledge you have to share!
Yay I'm so happy to hear this, you got it. I'm proud of you for being patient with yourself, honestly that's SO key! Thank you so much, comments like yours make my day and I appreciate you taking the time to write this and let me know
First time on skates yesterday since the 90s and I fell pretty hard. This video helped me bc I couldn’t remember til I watched this. Please encourage me to keep going. I’m 38 and a single mom. They need me to not be out of commission but I do remember loving to roller skate.
I actually started skating a month ago and can finally go backwards really fast, I've fallen a lot and am too broke to actually get pads, but I've been fine with it, personally I think it's fun.
I've been looking all over for this type of video. Just got my skates last week and I was just making up stuff. Looks like I was doing majority of these moves. Thank you for making this. ❤❤
oh my god thank you so much for this. i just got new skates and have been terrified of them for years because i fell ony ass one good time and so did someone else so i stopped and i hate it because i loved roller skating as a kid. it was so fun! so now i'm getting back into it.
Yess you’re gonna be so ready! I hope you subscribe for future videos too, I’ve got a several great tutorials for beginner rollerskaters coming to my channel this month I can’t wait to share that are gonna be super helpful! Glad you found my channel & hope your skates arrive soon so you can get rolling and having fun on them :)
Absolutely loved this video!! I wish I had found this before! Even for me that am practing roller skates for a while these tips are GOLD!! And I loved the fact that you had changed clothes and scenario for each tip!! Thanks for the great content and cheers from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil! :)
This is great!! I haven’t skated since I was 9 (almost 40 years ago!) Bought a pair of skates 4 weeks ago, just put them on now.. your video is going to be a BIG help.. cooking dinner in them tonight! 😂👍🏻
Thank you, getting back on skates after a looonnnnggggg time off them all of these simple exercises are very well explained and and can be done in small places and with practice will get me rollin’… thank you
Omg i like very much how you look so comfortable on those skates like you are wearing your everyday sneakers! Doing those transitions so smooth i am like WOW!
hi!!! just wanna say this is so helpful to me as i just started learning rollerskates on my own and it was super intimidating at first to the point i shook so bad but it got so much better after trying out your drills! and you explain them so well it was easy to follow!! thank you!!
Always BEND KNEES when you think ur gonna fall
YES. i fractured my elbow because I fell backwards, and went wide instead of getting low and squatting. my palm caught all of my weight. There is definitely a right way to fall
I just started to learn skating and the first thing I practised, was falling correctly. 😅 It helps to feel more confident, before trying any tricks.
Yep I’ve skated before but barely and got Into it again the first day I got my skates I got into it and learned a bit more shakes knees and all but stayed low! All my falls didn’t hurt so far so good!🤟

Good add on for when skaters are actually rolling, thanks for your tip! :) Love when skaters help each other out.
You know, I didn't even know i was already doing bubbles as I use that skill to slow down but now I can try and use it for backwards skating bc I'm still new and don't know how to skate backwards
Step one : get your roller skates that havent shiped and its been 16 weeks since you bought them

@@sherrysivo9775 yeah I feel ya on the fall fears! I am not shy about wearing really good knee and wrist pads and a helmet! I highly recommend
I’ve only recently learned to stand up without falling 😂 I can’t wait to try these out!
How's your progress?
Love the way you changed the camera angle to above you're feet. So helpful x
Ah thank you! I'm happy to hear that
I learned how to skate from my ice skating lessons and we did all of these!
That's awesome!

This, thus far has been the best technique video to follow. Thank you.
excellent beginner warm up. Thank you
How about wearing protective gear as #1? Too many people worried about looking cute and not about padding their parts.
Yea, after my first fall on my knee I took pads seriously and got some + a helmet. TBI, it only takes one time.
Especially WRIST GUARDS. At least for me. Learned that lesson quick.
Wrist guards and for sure a helmet especially if you’re outside on those crackly road/sidewalks!
Yep I’m confused that she’s wearing a helmet but not knee or wrist guards
Those red boots are GORGEOUS! Where are they from?
Moxi roller skates ❤️😊 I believe they are called Lolly 😊
Your channel is awesome, been super useful to me and I’m improving really quickly! Thank you!
Thank you for this!!!! You've given me about three more new tricks that I've done for the first time🥰

Great video, thanks! 🛼🥰
