Produktbeschreibung

Marty Donnellan has worked as a roller skating coach at All American Skating Rink near Atlanta, GA, USA. She has taught scores of people how to skate, and many others how to improve their skating.

"Teach Someone to Roller Skate" is a complete curriculum for a 4-to-6 week beginning roller skating course for all ages. Marty has used it with individual students of all ages, as well as school PE groups. It makes a great gift for parents whose kids are approaching skating age.

By studying Marty's clear text and engaging illustrations, you, too, can teach someone to roller skate - including yourself or your child - with no professional instructor present.
