Giselle has been telling us that she wants to try Roller-Blading after seeing the class in session one of the weekends. So we enrolled her in a trial class today and she had fun trying them out with her friends, Ethan, Brennan & Bernice.
Initially she had difficulty gathering her legs together to stand up but after a while she got better. Of course, there were times that she felt frustrated that her blades and legs were not listening to her and she kept falling down. But I feel it is good to let her get used to falling so that she is not afraid to fail her tasks.
Coach Daniel is the instructor for today and I have requested him to be around for the following classes since the kids like him. After the class, he stayed back for a while to play with the kids. He blades around the basket ball court and the kids enjoyed running behind him :)
After 1 lesson, Giselle could skate pretty well for a 1st timer. We went to Carrefour later in the day to get a pair a roller-blades for me and her. Yes, for me too as I am supposed to learn to skate with her daddy and her :(
Tried skating with the blades and I really skate like a ugly mother duck!
