🛼☀️ SUMMER BREEZE 2 SKATE LESSONS WAS A SUCCESS! ☀️🛼 IG @summerbreezesk8

What an incredible experience! We want to send a HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who traveled from near and far to be a part of Summer Breeze 2!

From Detroit, New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Delaware, North Carolina, DC/MD, South Carolina, and beyond—you showed up, brought your energy, and helped make this event something truly special. We appreciate every mile traveled and every person who came out to learn, connect, skate, and celebrate this culture with us. ❤️

A very special thank you to our amazing skate coaches:

🛼 Coach Batman @josh_batsmoke
🛼 Coach Meme @memefrmdc
🛼 Coach Tavon @itstavonthomas
🛼 Coach Trey @treycolee_

Thank you for showing up and pouring into our skaters. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, your unique skate styles, your experience, and your passion with authenticity and fidelity.

You are staples in our skate community. You are skate legends in your own right, and we are grateful that you continue to give back, teach others, and empower the next generation of skaters.

Every time you teach someone new, you’re doing more than teaching moves—you’re helping preserve and grow the culture. You’re planting seeds that will continue to spread, inspire, and positively influence people wherever they go.

This culture is positive. This community is powerful. And we need it. 🛼❤️

Thank you to our coaches, our skaters, our travelers, and everyone who helped make Summer Breeze 2 such a success. Thank you for your service to the skate community and for continuing to do what we all love.

Keep skating. Keep teaching. Keep pouring into others. Keep the culture moving forward.

Until the next Summer Breeze… THANK YOU! ☀️🛼🔥

This past weekend I had the opportunity to teach a beginner roller skating workshop in Virginia Beach for @supergirlpro
#🛼🌊 and I had SO much fun!!

S/O to @rollnvibez & @cmurdapresents for giving me this opportunity i am forever grateful 🫂🩷 & of course to @thelinkupdc for bringing me into teaching skating period because without that none of this would be possible.

Getting to introduce new skaters to the world of roller skating, help them build confidence, and watch everyone step outside their comfort zone was such a beautiful experience. 🥹

Thank you to everyone who came out, trusted me to teach, and brought such amazing energy! Y’all made this experience one I’ll never forget. 🫶🏾✨
