Wellness Riders is a girls & youth orientated skateboarding school which focuses on getting them on boards for their mental and physical well-being. Our skate sessions are run across Auckland and Hastings/Napier.
We are a social enterprise and the majority of our classes are provided free of charge to local communities with support from our awesome funding partners. You can support our mahi by purchasing skateboard gear and Wellness Riders merchandise through our store.
We provide all the gear and coaches and facilitate a safe space which is always inclusive, welcoming and non intimidating. We aim to break down barriers and self-limiting beliefs that may discourage kids from being active and or social in the community.
Our mission is to empower youth through movement, social connection and sharing wellness knowledge.

"Wellness Riders gave me the start I needed to give skateboarding a go and keep at it. Their stress free sessions and their positive vibes were what I needed to take up this new hobby. Each session gives you the chance to develop a new skill and build confidence while making connections with awesome people who encourage you on your journey" Luzzettte.
