Community Skate Night – A Relaxed, Skill-Focused Skate Session
MONDAY - NOVEMBER 10 & DECEMBER 1
This is not a public skate with a DJ—Community Skate Night is all about practicing, learning, and connecting in a low-pressure, informal setting. Each session begins with a Shuffle Skate lesson at 6:30 PM, followed by open practice from 7:30–10:30 PM where you can refine your skills, try new moves, and skate at your own pace.
We offer beginner Shuffle in the Practice Rink and intermediate/advanced Shuffle in the Big Rink, so everyone can find the space that fits their level. Bring your favorite music—anyone can plug in songs to help build the playlist for the night.
It’s a great way to meet other skaters, share tips, and simply enjoy rolling in a supportive community. Pricing: Community Skate is
