You can do it! DONT EVER LET YOUR BODY HOLD YOU BACK! WE ARE CAPABLE OF SO MUCH #normalizenormalbodies I do it for us boo! keep on groovin' Im rooting for you babe 👏👏
Your “body type”, can probably do, just about everything it wants. Of course like with other body types, it may take a lot of practice, and modification at first. For far too long, those who aren’t a size 8, or smaller, have simply been left out of representation. We already know that we all are capable, of doing what we love. All power to you, Sis! ✊🏾
“DO NOT LOOK AT YOUR FUCKING FEET!” 😭😭😭😭😭😭What’s funny, is that your friend, is constantly looking down, and struggling. The moment she keeps her head up, is when she starts to skate gracefully. Great example, of why you don’t look down. You’re great at explaining what to do, and how. Live your whole vibe!
Some of the best advice I've heard in a while. "A lot of people over think skating sometimes and don't trust themselves, especially on wheels. Trust yourself, be proud, hold your head up high. You've got this." You're the best. 💞🛼🔮
Pahaha omg girl you're cracking me up! its okay you got it! its okay if you do but once you feel comfortable just look straight ahead! I still look down from time to time but when i catch myself im just like LOOK UP BISH ahha 💕✨
BUT FOR REAL THOUGH IVE LEARNED SO MUCH IN 15 MINUTES FROM YOU THAN I HAVE FROM **LITERALLY** EVERYONE ELSE ON TH-cam(except Dirty Deb). A lot of skaters here seem hella self absorbed and you *thank god* don't.
wow, that really makes me happy! Especially because I couldn't agree more (I LOVE ME SOME DEBS AND SHE TAUGHT ME ALOT!) but this is why i decided to start a channel. Even though I was unsure if I'd even be a good teacher haha I just felt like there wasn't a lot out there in the skate world for us & I figured why not?! I'm so happy to hear that my little tutorials are helping you grow bb 🤗💕✨
I love you so much, you are now my most fav skater.... i am just getting back into skating after over 20 years, so im am learning all over again. i cant wait for my skates to arrive so i can start practicing. Im going to start with a 30 day skate challenge that might move into a 365 challenge.
I like the way you think! Also yassss so happy to hear that you’re getting back into skating 👏🏽👏🏽 thanks so much for your kindness Queen, you are appreciated 💕can’t wait to see your journey unfold 🙏🏽✨
How has it been going for you? My biggest issue is I've been on roller blades since they came out and though I'm getting decent with balance and the wheels in totally different position than blades, my feet and brain want to take off like I'm not in traditional roller skates. I do find w all flow arts, not overthinking always helps
Girl!! This was the most helpful video I have seen! And I've been trying to learn this walk for MONTHS. P.S. Please get yourself a portable mic!!💖 That way well be able to hear your voice consistently and you wont have to keep rolling to the front! I LOVE the fact that you do these videos outside and are sweating with us, absolute queen
Thank you! Will do! I've been thinking about getting one I just didnt know what theyre called or where to get it haha but now i do thanks to you ;) ill def. be working on that! thanks for watching 🙌
I'm new to skating and I'm very self conscious of my body as a curvy lady. Love from one curvy lady to another 💕💕💕 Thanks for the great content and bombing fits!
🥺😭 you’re so sweet thank you! I love that you guys are getting a sense of my personality through these videos because lowkey I feel hella awkward in front of camera but I’m getting better, I think 😅
Oh my gosh I am so freaking excited I found your account 🤩 the vibes? SUPERB! your teaching? Thorough and so well done! I love that you brought your friend out whose never done it before! Seriously please keep making vids you’re phenomenal I can’t wait to see more !
Wow, thank you for your kind words! This means alot to me, I'm so happy my little tutorials are helping all my little skate babies out there. Thanks for watching love 💜✨
You rock woman!!! I have been looking for someone to follow. You break sh** down in such a practical and sensible way. Thank you. We need more of you!!! You're gorgeous btw.
Thank you so much!! I cant skate without my flare pants they make me feel so good and comfortable hahah i just added some to my little store too! Groovyrollershop.com 😊💕
Love this tutorial! Just a suggestion, I would highlight that this move is definitely called the Strut Walk created by Star @juststaruh Although people refer to it as the sexy walk, that name was attached to the move by Ana Coto. Similarly when someone calls cornrows “boxer braids”. I think it would be great to reference viewers to the creator of the move ❤️
thanks for enlightening us! I now know this and wish I was aware back then but from now on will give credit to the original creator 😊🦋💕 I appreciate this thank you
I love your videos! You’re a great teacher, so encouraging. And it’s honestly nice to see a beginner learning and it’s nice seeing someone with closer to my body type doing these moves! I wanna be friends with y’all.
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH! This was the first day I was able to even come close. with more practice I'm sure ill be strutting around town in no time! thanks again you rock as always!
You have literally become my best friend!! Just subscribed and liked the video!! Thank you!! I love the way you teach. I am 41 years old, my mom sent me a pair of roller skates 🛼🛼 and here I gooooo!!! (By the way, didn’t grow up with my mom so we are both trying to make up for so many years of absence) yey for us! Yey for you! And yey for these beautiful skates!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I love your lessons... they're so real and helpful. I also love your pants... I checked your link for skate stuff on Etsy and found lots of cool shirts/stickers (which I'll be buying). However, I was really hoping that you had great pants like you wear in your posts for sale too. Where do you find them? ... they are so fun! Thank you for all your posting. You've been inspirational to this taller, but similar sized person... I feel I have no excuses now for not finding my balance in my body on skates.
Nope! No excuses we can all do this! I am an example of this 😉 and also yes you are correct I have two shops but I forgot to put my actual website as it launched after my channel did. But it’s GroovyRollerShop.com and I have most of the groovy pants that I wear in shop 🤗💕✨
I totally get what you're saying. Try doing it on a slight incline this will make you automatically go forward. And also try to place your front foot facing slightly outward to encourage movement. Hope this helps 🤗💕✨
OMG babe! Your videos are so good!! 🤩 Thank you for sharing all these tips with such positivity!! On top of that you made me laugh a lot! I'm just back to rollerskating, know already few basics tricks but really want to get more of it! Found your videos this morning preparing for today's session and Whoaa!! Just checking the content of your channel motivated me even more!! So big cheers darling! Big kisses from Brighton 😘💋💋
WOW! This just put the biggest smile on my face! I'm so glad my little tutorials are helping you grow sweet bb! Sending over lots of love! thanks so much for watching 🤗✨
Okay, I’ve tried this and I can figure out the first part but once I stop crossing my legs I’m not going backwards anymore 😕can’t figure this out for the life of me. Any tips?
Your tutorials are so easy to follow, and your vibe is so encouraging! It’s snowy where I am and I don’t have much space inside to skate- what moves do you recommend for small spaces? (I will check your tutorials in case you already have a video!). Also, where can we find bell bottoms like yours? All the ones I find are too small!
You are so welcome! I will def. try to make a video on this because it is asked more often lately because of winter. But to get started id say that spins, dowtown, zero and dribbling are some good moves to practice indoors 🤗💕✨
Thank you so much for this, so nice to see a curvy girl do it because I also was thinking my thighs were keeping me from doing it! If I am not finding myself going backwards and just looking like I'm trying to walk forward what am I doing wrong?
hey! THICK GIRLS CAN GET DOWN TO OKAY? ;) but thats okay love this is a super common problem starting out! Just try to point your front foot more outward on the outer edge and squeeze inner thighs. This should help initiate a backwards movement! Also make sure you're on a flat surface or slight incline and not going against it ;)🤗❣️💕
I love your channel! It has helped me so much. Any advice on the "backwards" motion though? I really haven't been able to go backwards and I don't know what is it exactly that I'm doing wrong :(
You are honestly the best virtual roller skater coach!! And I mean it! Most of the things I learn from your account! But I really struggle with this move! I stead of rolling backwards I walk forward🤷🏼♀️😫 what am I doing wrong? *help*
🥺🥺🥺 thank you so much for your kind words bb 😇 And that’s totally normal it could probably be the direction in which your feet are going in. If you try to hit it from more of an angle with emphasis on the outer edge as you cross over you will begin to roll backwards 😉 also, depending on where you’re practicing, try to hit it heading down a slight incline. Sometimes there’s a small incline on surfaces that make it harder.
How do you speed up? I start by pushing off to skate backwards, but I slow down when I start crossing over. My stopper isn’t touching the ground either. What am I doing wrong?

@@groovyrollerskate, I totally forgot about this comment. I actually have it down pack now! I realized that I did, in fact, have to put my feet on an angle. Silly mistake. Lol, Thank you!
So helpful!! Also nice seeing a noobie bc I'm in the same boat rn. It's hard to go against instinct and not look at your feet but legit every time I bust ass it's because I'm looking down 🥲
yess, the trick is confidence and trust in your feet! Just like walking... We dont rlly need to look at our feet while taking a walk/dancing so no need when skating 😉
Thanks for the tutorial, loved the tips about not looking at your feet an keeping your shoulders straight, they help. Unfortunately I have yet to find a help on how to roll backwards while doing this, for me im either stationary or going forwards awkwardly..
its okay love its totally normal. Just try keeping the front feet at about a 45 degree angle this will help to move you back. I made a youtube short with tips and tricks on this check it out when you have a chance :)

DO NOT LOOK DOWN AT YOUR F-ING FEET... when she somehow knows me on a personal level. Oops. This is a really great tut and i love your personality with a great explanation.
Its defintely looks like the feet that crossing over to the front is on the outside and so is the back so basically bend lean outside on back foot put your weigh on back foot then swing your front foot weight on outside edge and place it down stabilize and repeat
Hey there i think Moon answered this quite well. I agree that most of the weight is on you standing leg while for front leg is more on the outer edge while crossing over. Hope this helps!
Thanks so much for this! Question though, are you filming this on a hill? I really don't get how you guys literally just lift up a foot and start to roll backwards. I'm really struggling to gain momentum when going backwards anyway, and you guys just lift one foot and start to roll? How?
Yes we are going down a slight incline. Most surfaces have them even though it’s barely noticeable. It’s probably the direction in which your feet are going in. If you try to hit it from more of an angle with emphasis on the outer edge as you cross over you will begin to roll backwards 😉 when you place one foot down the other immediately lifts up & also, depending on where you’re practicing, try to hit it heading down a slight incline. Sometimes there’s a small incline on surfaces that make it harder if you’re going up it without knowing
This is the video I was looking for, I am not sure if I have hips lol 😂 but I'll try to move them cause I'm not going backwards I just stayed at the same place 🙄 but thanks so much for the tips I would practice this today's afternoon
you got it babe no stress! Keep working on it ❤️. I also made a quick youtube short showing tips on how to make your strut walk more seamless and moving backwards maybe itll help :)
Thanks sweetness! I made a youtube short on some reasons why you might not be moving backwards with some helpful tips since alot of people seem to have the same issue! Check it out when you have time :)

Omg my thighs won’t let me be great either

Ma’am thick thighs are great. Be blessed

right! it works wonders for you and we begin to look so much better when we do it, seriously 😊🦋💕 thanks for watching honey!
except when I look down it’s not really making me struggle as much as I should

"A lot of people over think skating sometimes and don't trust themselves, especially on wheels. Trust yourself, be proud, hold your head up high. You've got this." You're the best. 💞🛼🔮
its a process, we gotta be more confident in ourselves! you do got this sweet bb 😊🦋💕
Her: "Do NOT look down at your feet! trust your feet!"
Me who trips over my feet all the time just walking if I don't look down: *sweats nervously*
Pahaha omg girl you're cracking me up! its okay you got it! its okay if you do but once you feel comfortable just look straight ahead! I still look down from time to time but when i catch myself im just like LOOK UP BISH ahha 💕✨
Same girl, same

What if you literally don't move when you do it? Or you move forward?? I either don't move at all or move forward. Never backwards lol
I totally get what you're saying. Try doing it on a slight incline this will make you automatically go forward. And also try to place your front foot facing slightly outward to encourage movement. Hope this helps 🤗💕✨
Yea I never went backwards - but I’ll try again tomorrow

Not me failing and having the exact same problem. I was looking for this comment😂😂 imma get back up and try it again 😂💕

You can do it! Just focus on squeezing your thighs and applying more pressure to your outer edge when crossing over 😊🦋💕
So fun!! 🌸

You are honestly the best virtual roller skater coach!! And I mean it! Most of the things I learn from your account! But I really struggle with this move! I stead of rolling backwards I walk forward🤷🏼♀️😫 what am I doing wrong? *help*
🥺🥺🥺 thank you so much for your kind words bb 😇 And that’s totally normal it could probably be the direction in which your feet are going in.

If you try to hit it from more of an angle with emphasis on the outer edge as you cross over you will begin to roll backwards 😉 also, depending on where you’re practicing, try to hit it heading down a slight incline. Sometimes there’s a small incline on surfaces that make it harder.
@@groovyrollerskate, I totally forgot about this comment. I actually have it down pack now! I realized that I did, in fact, have to put my feet on an angle. Silly mistake. Lol, Thank you!
Thank you beautiful! This video helped me a lot ! Girl I’m finna be grooving on my skates honey 😜
You're so welcome! you got this bb 😊🦋💕
@@groovyrollerskate 🥰
This is taking me longer than 15 mins to learn 😭😭
Totally normal! It took me 3 months to learn it by myself. Doesn't matter how long, just matters that you don't give up ;)
You are a legit hype-girl!
This is so cute. I can't wait to be a groovy baby. 🎧😘
yess bb! you got this 😊🦋💕
Yeah I need to work on this, I got big legs
So helpful!! Also nice seeing a noobie bc I'm in the same boat rn. It's hard to go against instinct and not look at your feet but legit every time I bust ass it's because I'm looking down 🥲
yess, the trick is confidence and trust in your feet! Just like walking... We dont rlly need to look at our feet while taking a walk/dancing so no need when skating 😉
Ive been trying to get this for months. For some reason i dont move backwards im stuck on the same spot or move forwards. Any idea why this happens
Make sure the heel of the back foot is pointing outwards before you lift it up
Christine is absolutely correct. Also try doing it on a slight decline if you can :)
Thanks for the tutorial, loved the tips about not looking at your feet an keeping your shoulders straight, they help. Unfortunately I have yet to find a help on how to roll backwards while doing this, for me im either stationary or going forwards awkwardly..
its okay love its totally normal. Just try keeping the front feet at about a 45 degree angle this will help to move you back. I made a youtube short with tips and tricks on this check it out when you have a chance :)
@@groovyrollerskate great that makes sense since thats how we roll back! i will try it. thank you!
Girl, this is the best tutorial on this! I still look special doing it but you helped me. Thanks!!❤❤
You are so welcome! So glad it helped you bb 🤗💕✨
Thank you!!!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
How do you move backwards tho 😭😭 I'm always stuck on one spot when I start doing it :'( I have the balance but I can't move from my spot😂
It’s probably the direction in which your feet are going in. If you try to hit it from more of an angle with emphasis on the outer edge as you cross over you will begin to roll backwards 😉 also, depending on where you’re practicing, try to hit it heading down a slight incline.

New subscriber thank you so much and you are beautiful ❤️
Wow thanks so much for subbing! Sending lots of love your way! 💕💖✨
DO NOT LOOK DOWN AT YOUR F-ING FEET... when she somehow knows me on a personal level. Oops. This is a really great tut and i love your personality with a great explanation.
Thanks bb! I live by that! We gotta keep our heads up nice and proud & that’s in all things life 😉
That pink hair is cute on you!
Can you please tell us more about the weight distribution? Are we leaning on the inside or outside edges? Does the weight transfer? Thanks!
Its defintely looks like the feet that crossing over to the front is on the outside and so is the back so basically bend lean outside on back foot put your weigh on back foot then swing your front foot weight on outside edge and place it down stabilize and repeat
Hey there i think Moon answered this quite well. I agree that most of the weight is on you standing leg while for front leg is more on the outer edge while crossing over. Hope this helps!
Thank you ❤
Thanks so much for this! Question though, are you filming this on a hill? I really don't get how you guys literally just lift up a foot and start to roll backwards. I'm really struggling to gain momentum when going backwards anyway, and you guys just lift one foot and start to roll? How?
Yes we are going down a slight incline. Most surfaces have them even though it’s barely noticeable. It’s probably the direction in which your feet are going in. If you try to hit it from more of an angle with emphasis on the outer edge as you cross over you will begin to roll backwards 😉 when you place one foot down the other immediately lifts up & also, depending on where you’re practicing, try to hit it heading down a slight incline. Sometimes there’s a small incline on surfaces that make it harder if you’re going up it without knowing
I have very long erasers on my rollers and they stop me from doing. Shall I remove them or shall they be shorter?
This is the video I was looking for, I am not sure if I have hips lol 😂 but I'll try to move them cause I'm not going backwards I just stayed at the same place 🙄 but thanks so much for the tips I would practice this today's afternoon
you got it babe no stress! Keep working on it ❤️. I also made a quick youtube short showing tips on how to make your strut walk more seamless and moving backwards maybe itll help :)
@@groovyrollerskate Thsnl you so much I will look for it already subscribed to your channel

Nice seeing her backwards skate throw down !!!
Right! And she’s gotten even BETTER now it’s insane to see rlly 🥺

Thanks sweetness! I made a youtube short on some reasons why you might not be moving backwards with some helpful tips since alot of people seem to have the same issue! Check it out when you have time :)
I’m trying but it’s going forward 😭
