"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 as an adult. 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. P
