The success of setting up my skate school was mentioned on the front page of the daily echo online yesterday! I knew when a PR company got in contact that I would get a mention but wasn’t sure when and where. Thanks to a mate of mine for pointing it out. I would of missed it otherwise. Now to see if I can get hold of the snippet from the newspaper! 📰 😎 🥳

More than 1,000 business founders in Hampshire have received £25 million in loans from a government-backed programme.

Wishing my incredible skate family a Happy New Year! It’s been a crazy but exciting year with the arrival of my daughter, completing a level 4 nvq in care whilst working full time and not to mention the awful wet weather we’ve had.
Balancing the skate school with parenthood and life's ups and downs wouldn't be possible
without your continued support!
All the best for 2025! I look forward to seeing both old and new faces soon. Keep shredding 🤙🏻🥳🎉 🛹

First of all I’d just like to say 🎉Happy New Year 🎉 to everyone I hope you all had a good one. As I reflect back on the year it has been one hell of a roller coaster, it’s been hard at times juggling the skate school and a full time job as a support worker which can be demanding but rewarding, not to mention personal circumstances that have occurred throughout the year.

As a result I’ve not got my business to the point I set my goal for 2023, I’ve neglected my social media side (which I struggle at the best of times to spend time on) and have even taken a day or two to get back to some of you enquiring about lessons, so for one I apologise for the slack but also appreciative of all those who have been understanding and supportive throughout the year. Always a learning curve and remembering to accept the rough with the smooth.

I am positive this year is going to be a good year 🔥 and looking forward to continue doing what I love doing the most, helping all you lovely folk get rolling or progress further, sharing my passion for skateboarding and making it inclusive for all! 🛹

Lots of great moments last year, was hard to scale down all the hours of footage but I’ve managed to piece together an edit of this years highlights. I hope you all enjoy!

To all those who have had lessons with me in 2023 should be proud of how far you come, but most importantly of all have had fun whilst learning. I look forward to continuing coaching you all and also welcoming new members to the school this year! Exciting times ahead!

Wishing you all the best for 2024.

A massive thank you to all for your continued support this year, it’s been greatly appreciated.

You should all be very proud of how well you’ve progressed and I look forward to seeing you all reach your goals in 2024 🛹
