Hey all!! Just wanted to say I apologize for not being able to respond to all of your comments! If you have any questions you'd like me to answer please head over to the community tab and leave a comment on that post. Thanks for all of the love, support, and tips!! 💖
When you feel like you’re going to fall, lean forward a little and squat with your arms around your legs. That way when you fall you have less of a chance getting badly hurt! A other way is to slide up and put your knee down MUST have knee pads hard to explain look up how to fall lol (Comment this before I just wanted to say this for anyone who just started skating and is in the comment section 😊)
Note: Impalas do not have an adjustable toe stop so that’s why she had to take hers off but if your skates do you can just make them shorter instead of completely removing them! :)
If that dog had gone at you day 1-10 you would have ate asphalt! That’s always a cool show of progress when something unexpected gets thrown at you (sometimes literally) and you are able to handle it with out panicking or falling! Awesome progress thanks for sharing :)
You’ve inspired me to start skating. My mom was a speed skater in high school and now, after I told her I wanted to skate, she said she does now too! So now she and I have a lot to bond over. It’s been 30 years since she’s been on skates, so she and I are starting from square one together. Thank you so much for sharing your journey 💕✨
I'm so jealous of how fast ur learning how to go backwards. But like ur references to the videos plus watching u learn little lessons about how to balance is giving me new inspiration. I guess I havent really practiced going backwards very much. I've just been cruising for years and never could go backwards yet lol so I'm excited to try and start back up lol
10:52 girl don’t apologise because I’ve watched the part 1 and 2 multiple times already and It’s not boring at all . It reminded me of when I first started roller blading :D (now I want a pair of roller skate :/ )
1. Skating backwards on day 20 and 22: your c-cuts look much better now that you are working with the edges. 2. Moonwalks on day 23: Getting better! 3. Your mohawks are good. 4. Day 30: Great strides! After one year you will be able to skate-dance like Asha Kirkby and Erika Cordeiro!
Ordering my first ever pair of Rollerskates from Impala next Friday, I’m so excited and this truly motivates me even more to learn this new hobby! Your enthusiasm and motivation to keep getting better and better truly is inspiring.😊 Edit: I began rollerskating through out last month I skated almost every single day till the snow hit us- I have been working so I skate on the weekends but I’ve ridden my Impala skates so much that one of them is tearing at the bottom and I’ve replaced the stock bearings I absolutely am obsessed with skating and have even lost 20lbs since I started. Thank you Linda for inspiring me to push my self into trying something new and embracing falling before you can glide with grace. :)
That's not a good thing. Your skates didn't break because of how much you were skating, they're shit quality skates. I hope by now you invested in some with a long quality of life.
So I recently got back into skating after 15 years. And I have to say I'm having a hard time remembering how to do the tricks I use to. Transitioning use to come so easily to me and now I'm having a hard time keeping my balance. Hopefully itll come to me again with practice. Your doing great.
Thanks for sharing your progress :) honestly, your video inspired me to take up roller skating again. I've been skating for the last 3 month and still struggle with transitioning and going backwards. Seeing your learning process really helps and now I can't wait to put them on again.
I’m glad I’m not the only one that struggles with transitions! To this day I still struggle with them. I’m so happy to hear you’re picking up skating again!! 💞😭
Dang girl!!! You learned fast!!! In 30 days you progressed a lot! You definitely should be happy and proud of yourself. You’ve inspired me to order a new pair of skates for sure. I used to skate when I was younger but stopped when I moved to Florida because there was no place really to skate. Definitely going to find someplace and get my skate on. It’s so much fun and a good way to get exercise and be out in nature for a bit. I hope you’re still skating and progressing. Keep it up because it’s something you can do for most of your life.
Not sure why but this video made me a little emotional haha just seeing how positive and determined you are to get better at skating was awesome. Definitely inspired me thank you
I just found your channel today after ordering a pair of skates and falling down a rabbit hole of videos. I love your attitude and the commentary on things you realized while learning is so helpful. I followed the insta but I hope you post more skating videos too!
I just got skates today and felt so defeated when I tried them out - I think I only skated for 10 minutes or less. But your video has made me feel like I can do this! And also found a couple other vids that have helped me be a little less afraid (in theory) of falling. Thanks for sharing your journey!
girl,i wanna try skating as a new hobbys😫, this quarantine is keeping me so bored,i might be getting roller skates too tho,btw your content is very inspiring to me to try skating❤️😌
Thanks for this. I know now that 30 days will do the trick. I haven't roller skated since a teenager. Been blading for years, but know I'll be like a beginner again. Waiting for my roller skates to arrive. I have a brand new path behind my house. Can't wait to hit it.
I like that you start the vid by showing yourself falling. I find that as a new skater it feels very awkward to fall and it kinda deters me from skating, but when I see someone else falling that mental block goes away and I feel less embarrassed! Thank you for posting your skating journey its helped me so much!
Loved watching your progress and hearing your tips. I haven't skated in decades. My new skates should arrive this coming week. I'm looking forward to rediscovering my love of rollerskating. Thank you for permitting us to come along on your journey.
I loved these two videos so much! I stumbled across this because my friend and I had just ordered roller skates and you've made me so excited to get them and to skate! It was wonderful to watch your progress!!!
i made a midnight purchase yesterday and bought roller blades so obviously i started watching roller blading and skating videos. i cant wait till they come in a week or two 🤎
You always feel happy when you achieve something that you think is pretty huge, like starting from square one not being able to even skate smoothly, to now knowing how to skate confidently, . If that dog had been there on Day one you would have been demolished!. I am finally getting my roller skates tomorrow, and you're really going to make me burst of excitement! Knowing that after a couple months I will be able to skate like that too!
You are my hero! I admire your tenacity and courage. I ordered my skates a few days ago it should arrive tomorrow. I’m afraid too but the desire to skate/dance is greater then my fear.
So I'm not learning to rollerskate (yet) but I AM learning to skateBOARD and your enthusiasm for learning new things and your journey diary makes me excited to learn 🤗
I got skates YEARS ago and I've been wanting to get back into it. Your journey was fun to watch! This is great motivation and a nice honest account of what it can look like to learn something new with your body. Hard but worth it! can't wait for it to get warmer here for me to start!
It is not recommended to remove the brake and leave the base unprotected in this way, so there is an accessory for that, but it only has for skids with adjustable brake (which is unfortunately not the case). I don’t know if you said that in the video because I don’t understand English, I’m just using the translator to speak here a few things I know about skates
My first pair of roller skates is coming Monday. When I was a LITTLE kid I found skates in my grandma's storage closet slapped them on and tried to skate in my aunts skates from HS, I fell and the back truck of my R skate hit my L shin and broke my leg in 2 places, family thought I was faking how bad I was hurt and after 3 days finally took me to the Dr. It was broke in 2 places and separated, almost 3 months in a cast and haven't roller skated since on quad skates so I'm very very nervous but at 31yrs old, I wanna try to tackle the challenge to skate with my 4 kids (10, 8, 2 and 2) my older 2 are showing a lot of interest lately so hopefully it's something we can all enjoy together, going to the closest rink 40 mins away this weekend with the kids and my mom also go herself some skates to see how she does after not skating since HS she's 47 so she's really nervous too. I enjoyed these 2 video and now follow your insta
Youre videos are great. Watching your struggles are helping me mentally figure out how I need to learn things. Especially since youre going slow and I can see what youre doing
I have an on ice figure skating background and I don't know if this applies to roller skating but if you are right handed spinning counterclockwise should be easier (left handed skaters tend to rotate clockwise) given also that your left foot is the dominant one. For smoother transitions you could practice skating on one foot, both forwards and backwards, and mohawk turns. You're doing a great job and your skating has improved so much in just 30 days!!
I love your video I really wanna learn how to state one day but I do have one question: y do you have so many chairs in your garage? I know it’s none of my business I am just curious
thank u so much for these videos! i loved them so much and really appreciate your transparency. got my skates yesterday from goodwill and i’m excited to get started!
New sub here I just got my skates a few days ago pretty new but I go to the rink once a week but I have learned so much from you and have helped so much on learning this fun hobby!! Congrats girl!
I hope when the pandemic is over, u will start going to adult nights at roller rinks. I wonder if the droves of nonblack women will be too scared to come to our world where we never stopped skating. Plz come join us
I would absolutely love to join adult nights at the roller rinks!! I’ve been waiting for the rinks to reopen in my area but looks like I’ll have to wait until 2021 🥺 thanks for watching I appreciate the comments!! 💞
@@cheunglindaa i enjoyed ur content. Dont stop. U live in so cal and u guys have great rink meetups. I live in nc. We have about 6 rinks in the state that have adult nights. I live in a county that has one but have kids. I will be able to go in 5 yrs, lol
I'm convinced the black community is the only reason most roller rinks are still a float. Whenever I go to the rink there is a always a rich culture there and it's so fun and energizing to be around others who have such a passion for skating and who are having so much fun.
Very inspiring to watch!! Super proud of you and your progress. I love that you set clear goals for yourself each day. My skates are coming today and I’m hoping they’ll inspire me to get outside and be more active!!
Okay, I only saw five minutes of video and I know there’s a lot more to see along with your progress, but I need to say that. When you are going to do a spin, your dominant arm (right or left) needs to be straight to the side and your other arm straight to the front. After that you put your feet in position (the dominant with the front wheels up and the other with the rear wheels up) and then push as if you were going to punch with your dominant arm and with the other arm just close . In case you have already learned this, just ignore my comment :)
Pleaasseee more skate videos!! Loved this lil doc series you did :D I've been looking into getting skates and these 2 videos have helped me loads thank youuu
Mine just came yesterday !! Have to loosen the wheels a bit, then I'll be ready to go ! Your videos are amazing and they've given me so many tips ! Keep up the good work !❤️
Im sure you might have nailed your spin by now but for anyone learning in dance yoy learn spotting you pick a spot to focus on when your turning its better for balance .use your arms for momentum and the weight of your hips will also help
You have inspired me to learn!! I though about this during lockdown 2020 but I kept talking myself out of it (fear) you did so well in 30 days!! I’m going to get myself some skates watch as many tutorials as possible and practice daily with my daughter!! I know she will get it quickly!! I’m terrified but it’s my dream to learn 💁🏼♀️🙌👍🏻 WELL DONE AND THANK YOU 😊
awesome video! when I started playing roller derby in 2016 transitions were the first thing I got really excited to learn and you're doing great with them. I know helmets are a little pricey (S1 makes a really good one for $100ish) but I've seen enough beginner skaters get concussions from pretty mild falls that I really recommend one!! & Dirty School of Skate has really good videos about safe falling, it's worth spending a couple minutes practicing falling "right" every time you skate to get that muscle memory. We do it in derby to prevent injury :)
This video made me feel I’m not the only one learning how to roller skate. Also this video made me feel more confident when roller skating. So thank you for making this video.
Thanks you for sharing your learning journey. It helps to keep me going on my own skating journey on days when I am frustrated with the lack of progress.
I get so tired SO FAST! I am going to try stretching like you mentioned in your first video! You're doing so great and I bet you're even better since this video was posted 5 months ago!
I got my skated last year. I didn't skate super much last year due to not knowing where to skate plus needing someone with me at first but this year when it's warmer and no rocks on side walks I will try myself and just skate more often cause I miss skating soo much and just wanna do it.
i have had roller skates since 2020 but i guess I never took the time to do what she is doing you know "Practice makes Perfect" I will surely do this and hopefully get better like you did
I have started roller skating a week ago and I learned VERY FAST so yesterday I was going way too fast and it was an accident I was at an incline I knew it wasn’t a good decision but it wasn’t that king of a distance and ai about broke my tailbone it is bruised but it hurts. Use that as a lesson also sorry it’s like 5:00 almost 6:00 am so sorry if you have my tine
I'm amazed by ur results...im damn sure I'll never be able to learn roller skating in less than a month or two but imma try my best. This video made me even more excited to start skating:)
I learned how to ice and roller skate when I was young (not very well but enough to go out and have fun). After watching so many people learn during covid, I am thankful I leaned when young. Saves a lot of spills. I am sure I would have broken a bone as this age. However, there is much more stuff to learn RUclips then I ever would have known about. So, maybe I can learn a few things. I did come to your channel, late. So I know you are doing very well!! Oh... I wish I was young, again. :D

hey! how is it going? I just went to the rink today, and it was atrocious. Are you improving ?
Yay good luck ❤️

This is a super helpful tip for everyone, thank you for sharing this!! 💞
You actually can adjust the toe stop down with a couple washers, you wouldn’t think it makes much difference but it really does !!! 🛼
I like the transition from "practice makes perfect" to "practice makes progress." Very realistic and healthy change.
If that dog had gone at you day 1-10 you would have ate asphalt! That’s always a cool show of progress when something unexpected gets thrown at you (sometimes literally) and you are able to handle it with out panicking or falling! Awesome progress thanks for sharing :)
You’re right I’m actually surprised I didn’t fall from that situation 😂 thanks for watching both videos!!

Is it bad that I started skating backwards on the first day? 😳🤭
@@ilovegraciee No! That means you where born to skate! Keep going I know you'll make it far! :)

Def wanna see you skate more! I’m just beginning too! I see that it’s about finding confidence and just trying!
Thanks so much!! It’s always a pleasure to meet a fellow beginner skater it makes me feel like we’re all learning together :’) best of luck 💖

but roller skate is meant for boys though
I’ve been unicycling for 6 months so I get what you’re going through but learning is fun and progress especially is never linear. You got this!
I LOVE your energy and vibe. I really like how you set a goal before each session about what you were going to focus on practicing.

I have a tip! Wen you know your about to fall, get low and get small it will avoid you from getting hurt and falling!
You have inspired me to learn!! I though about this during lockdown 2020 but I kept talking myself out of it (fear) you did so well in 30 days!! I’m going to get myself some skates watch as many tutorials as possible and practice daily with my daughter!! I know she will get it quickly!! I’m terrified but it’s my dream to learn 💁🏼♀️🙌👍🏻 WELL DONE AND THANK YOU 😊
Aww u look so cute talking about how much u enjoy roller skating!!
Thanks for your vids! I am getting roller skates tomorrow and you have made me even more exited about it!
I'm learning to rollerblade! Your video gives me hope! Even though our skates are different, it's still the same concept! You go, girl!
this was so inspiring! and a great reminder to take it one day at a time!!
awesome video! when I started playing roller derby in 2016 transitions were the first thing I got really excited to learn and you're doing great with them. I know helmets are a little pricey (S1 makes a really good one for $100ish) but I've seen enough beginner skaters get concussions from pretty mild falls that I really recommend one!! & Dirty School of Skate has really good videos about safe falling, it's worth spending a couple minutes practicing falling "right" every time you skate to get that muscle memory. We do it in derby to prevent injury :)
Wow that was so fun!! Thank u for sharing. I want to start skating so bad. But also am afraid.
That was so awesome to watch! I have Impala skates, too, but I haven’t made the time to skate daily. This has inspired me!
This video made me feel I’m not the only one learning how to roller skate. Also this video made me feel more confident when roller skating. So thank you for making this video.
Thanks you for sharing your learning journey. It helps to keep me going on my own skating journey on days when I am frustrated with the lack of progress.
Don’t be frustrated!! We all learn at our own pace the important thing is we keep trying :) best of luck you got this 💗
I get so tired SO FAST! I am going to try stretching like you mentioned in your first video! You're doing so great and I bet you're even better since this video was posted 5 months ago!
I got my skated last year. I didn't skate super much last year due to not knowing where to skate plus needing someone with me at first but this year when it's warmer and no rocks on side walks I will try myself and just skate more often cause I miss skating soo much and just wanna do it.
Thanks so much for sharing your progress! I just got my skates last week and I'm geeked!
Thank you for watching!! Best of luck on your skating journey! 😍
i have had roller skates since 2020 but i guess I never took the time to do what she is doing you know "Practice makes Perfect" I will surely do this and hopefully get better like you did
Me gusto tu video, muchas no muestran su realidad como tu y eso desanima ver que uno no puede alcanzar su avance rapido, me diste valor a continuar
I'm really enjoying your rollerskate videos and hope you do more!
This made me so happy🤍 im glad I found your page💯
I’m 5 months late, but just got my skates and I’m so excited to get started!
I have started roller skating a week ago and I learned VERY FAST so yesterday I was going way too fast and it was an accident I was at an incline I knew it wasn’t a good decision but it wasn’t that king of a distance and ai about broke my tailbone it is bruised but it hurts. Use that as a lesson also sorry it’s like 5:00 almost 6:00 am so sorry if you have my tine
I'm amazed by ur results...im damn sure I'll never be able to learn roller skating in less than a month or two but imma try my best. This video made me even more excited to start skating:)
I love that when you fall, you laugh it out! ❤️
I learned how to ice and roller skate when I was young (not very well but enough to go out and have fun). After watching so many people learn during covid, I am thankful I leaned when young. Saves a lot of spills. I am sure I would have broken a bone as this age. However, there is much more stuff to learn RUclips then I ever would have known about. So, maybe I can learn a few things. I did come to your channel, late. So I know you are doing very well!! Oh... I wish I was young, again. :D
This really gives me the confidence to continue on skating!!! Thank you for documenting this!
Thank you for showing your journey from absolute beginner to 'able-to'. I am jealous!
Thank you for posting these vids!! I just got my skates the other day.
