SkateIA Level 1 Instructor Certification In-Person
In person certifications occur in North America, South America, and Europe. They are two and a half days: a 2 hour Zoom session on theory followed by two full days (9am to 5pm) of in-person, on skates training and testing.
Discounts available for groups of 6 or more. Contact us to make special arrangements.
Level 1 Certification is for inline and quad skaters who are either brand new at teaching or are existing instructors looking to get a proven method to run a safe and effective skate class. You’ll learn the SkateIA teaching model which gives you the knowledge to break down ANY skating move into clear and easy to understand steps, and keep students motivated and set up for success regardless of level or learning style.
