  • Nadindra (Indonesia)

    Hi there, I'm Nadindra, a roller skating enthusiast and dancer based in Indonesia. I've been rolling since 2019, and roller dance has become my passion. I've been dancing since I was 4 years old, exploring different styles, but there's something special about gliding on wheels that really speaks to me.

    Seeking to elevate my skills, I sought guidance from professionals outside Indonesia, where resources were limited. That's when I connected with Morgan Weske, who has been a mentor ever since.

    Now, I'm dedicated to spreading the joy of roller dance across Asia through Skate Asia, a roller dance hub based in Jakarta. I founded it to make roller dance accessible to all, offering classes, events, and performances. As an instructor, I cover everything from the basics to intricate routines and choreography, including roller cardio sessions for those looking to get their blood pumping.

  • Carly (England)

    Hey, I'm Carly, a certified Dance Skate Instructor, based in Leeds, UK and Director of Potternewton Park Rollers.

    I rediscovered skating as an adult after having my 3rd baby, in an effort to get fit. I fell in love with jam skating and the freeness, creativity and sense of achievement it gives me.

    Having a dance background certainly adds to the excitement. Who doesn't love putting a Janet routine on skates? Getting in my 'skate lab' feels like when I was younger and we used to make up routines, then perform them to any one that would watch.

    With ideas whizzing around my head, Morgan helped me structure them and is an amazing mentor!

    Sharing my passion through the skate collective Potternewton Rollers by curating unique events, especially in sk8 dance is a privilege. Watch my page for the next chapter!

    In 2021, I began my roller skating journey, driven by a deep passion to unite fellow enthusiasts in Malaysia through the exhilarating art of roller skating.

    I organized three unforgettable Roller Skate Halloween events. I infused each occasion with boundless joy and excitement.

    Despite being diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer in December 2023, I remained undeterred, pushing forward to achieve my Dance Skate Instructor Certification. I was determined to elevate my passion to new heights. With a keen eye on the future, I am dedicated to creating even more thrilling events for roller skating aficionados to enjoy.

  • Maria Victoria (Dominican Republic)

    Hola! Soy Maria Victoria! 🤠🌈🛼 I’m a Venezuelan roller skater based in the Dominican Republic and ever since I got my first skates in 2021 I knew I clicked with something wonderful and meaningful to me.

    Rollerskating and Jam Skating have given me a space to express my creativity, move my body freely and just connect to a more carefree and colorful version of me. I have felt mental, physical and spiritual growth thanks to this hobby and all the kind people that I’ve been lucky to share with and learn from in this journey.

    I believe Dominican Republic and Santo Domingo have a lot to offer to roller skaters in the Caribbean AND BEYOND, so hopefully with being able to teach this sport along with the Santo Domingo Roller Squad gatherings and activities, all will help to promote rollerskating amongst many people so they can connect to movement, music and this beautiful country with a whole new perspective 🌴🤍✨🛼

    Nos vemos en el camino! Lxs quiero mucho! 🌈🫶🏼✨

  • Fer Medina (Léon, Mexico)

    I am Fernanda Medina, and I feel free when I’m on wheels; scratching the space to the rhythm of the music.

    Dancing on skates is a experience I would like more people experiment and feel the fullness in their soul. For that reason, I tried to bring this into my city, and now, make it bigger.

    When I started I was addicted ‘cause there wasn’t any place where I can learn. I practiced in every place that looked “skateable”. Finally, in my duty to share this and meet more willing people who want to enjoy this experience I started teaching in a local Social Center two years ago. Then I paused, cause I knew I needed to prepare better. So I took different SkateDance / Roller Dance workshops in other cities. But something was missing: How to teach?

    Even though I’m an educator…How can I teach this in a better and effective way? Morgan Weske taught me and shared me many tools to improve my teaching and the way to motivate and connect with more people to start or keep learning how to dance on skates. I’m eternally grateful with this opportunity and I’m sure that this certification will help me to start all over again to improve my classes for my students and grow the Dance Skating Community in León, Guanajuato, México!

  • Mari (Ireland)

    I'm Mari Groove, originally from Brazil but now happily settled in Ireland. Three years ago, I tried on my first pair of skates, and I was hooked. The feeling of freedom, joy and happiness —it became my passion. As I got deeper into roller skating, I realised its amazing ability to bring people together. That's why I started Skate Revolution—a colorful community.

    I started teaching back in October 2023. When I came across Morgan Weske's program, I knew it was a game-changer. Her certification wasn't just about learning new routines—it was about learning teaching skills, gaining recognition in the Irish community, improving my skills, and thriving the roller dance community. She increased my roller dance vocabulary through the catalogue of moves and teaching drills techniques, she also helped me develop essential interpersonal skills like public speaking, staying energized for teaching, adapting lessons on the go, and promoting broader community engagement.

    But that's not all—since becoming part of an amazing international network and achieving certification, I'm now equipped to teach roller dance wherever I go. I'm gearing up to take my love for roller dance on the road, traveling across Ireland and possibly Europe to teach small communities like mine.

  • Tre (Florida, USA)

    Hey! Everyone just calls me Tre (pronounced Tree) and I skate by the name “The Tre of Skate Life”.

    During Covid I, like many others, decided to rekindle my relationship with skates. It was one of the best decisions of my adult life. I started taking lessons, meeting people, grew my skater family, and now I am an instructor! I will always be a student because the journey is more fun than having a single end goal. Skating is one of the few things that I have found where age is irrelevant, and your potential is completely up to you. It is where I exercise, focus, relax, express movement in sync with others, or vibe alone.

    As a RollerFitness Instructor and Certified Dance Skate Instructor, it is now my turn to help others do all those things too. Let’s go!

  • Raqs (Philippines)

    Hello, I am Raqs from the Philippines! Got bitten by the roller skating bug when I was kid but it was not until the pandemic happened that I found my way back to it. Growing up in the 90’s was fun but it was also heartbreaking to witness the demise of a hobby that I was just starting to love. I remember how that day that my mom brought me to the last rink standing was one of the best days of my life. Fast forward to 2020, I was invited to be part of the core group of Everywhere We Skate PH, an online roller skating community that was founded over the pandemic for skaters and skate enthusiasts. And the rest is history.

    As someone with theater performance and streetdance background, I was immediately drawn to Morgan Weske’s style. And having a mentor like Morgan, whose dance and teaching approach I both can relate to has fueled my personal goals which are to continue learning while also educating others and passing on the love for this craft so it will live on here in my homeland.

    This is why I have created RollerSkatePH, a local collective that focuses on creating and teaching choreography that is relatable for skaters of all levels. Follow our adventures and hopefully someday we get to do a collab and meet all of the other awesome roller skate communities around the world! 🫶🏼

  • Olga (Hong Kong, China)

    I believe everyone deserves to have something to be passionate about. If you haven’t found yours, try roller skating. Roller skate dancing has helped me in ways I couldn’t possibly imagine. Join me if you want to experience such an incredible journey. I’ll be everything I am and use everything I’ve learned to help you!

  • Stepany (Budapest, Hungary)

    Hey everyone, my name is Stephany, they call me Stephy and I’m from Hungary, Budapest. I’m the first one here teaching dance/jam skating classes regularly. I’m celebrating the 4th year of skating in October, and I couldn’t imagine my life any other way than on wheels now. It started off as a hobby, and half a year ago I quit my “regular” job, and became a roller skater full-time. I have a project with my dear friend, Lívia, which is called Skate Jam Budapest. We teach classes, organize events, local workshops, and workshops with skaters from abroad to enrich the culture.

    In the 80s there used to be a huge skate life in Budapest, there were roller-discos and competitions, but since the rink closed there was not much happening until we started organizing skate events again in 2021 with Skate Jam Budapest and Budapest Roller-Disco. Originally, I’m a classical musician and I know what practice means. That’s something I also teach my students, how to practice, so it will benefit you. I’m also very focused on musicality and while learning fancy footwork, I also have skating as a creative outlet for self expression.

    I’m more than excited to have this certificate from Dance Skate, and I can serve my community even better with the skills learned. If you join my classes, note: you are not just taking part in a learning process, but also taking part in building a new, colorful, and exciting culture!

  • Una (Ireland)

    Hi, my name is Úna and I'm from Northern Ireland!

    3 years ago I rediscovered the joy of roller skating and I have been skating ever since! Sharing in this joy is something I'm very passionate about and I found myself organically helping others and making up fun dance routines at our local hall skate sessions! After following Morgan Weske via socials, I was delighted to see that she was offering a dance skate instructor certification! I jumped at this amazing opportunity to learn from this talented choreographer and brilliant roller skater from my own home!!

    The dance skate certification course took us through everything we needed to structure and build our workshops. As a mentor, Morgan was instrumentally guided and empowed me to have the confidence to start Roller Dance workshops in my home area and spread the joy of skating within my community!

    Since completing the certification, I have been hosting “Learn to Skate and Roller Dance” workshops and it's fantastic to see that our skate community here growing!! Skating has brought me so much joy and I am grateful to share that with others. I would like to help as many kids and adults get on skates, either for the first time or rediscover skating while make it as accessible as possible.

  • Jodi (South Africa)

    Heya I'm Jodi, the founder of Roller Dance SA and first qualified Dance Skate Instructor based in Durban, South Africa.

    I discovered roller skating in 2021 and immediately fell in love with the style of rhythm dance skate. Through social media, I connected with various dance skaters and joined in online training where possible.

    I am passionate about making dance skate more accessible to the roller skate community here in South Africa... When Morgan Weske presented the amazing opportunity to work with her and gain the skills required to teach, I grasped it! Morgan's style of teaching has armed me with the tools I need to confidently create a safe space to go out and spread the dance skate love.

    Through workshops and one on one training both virtually and in person, I hope to grow our community and make dance skate available to all ages and backgrounds.

  • Sol (Calgary, Canada)

    Hello, I'm Sol! Originally from Mexico City, but now calling Calgary, Canada my home for the past five years. My journey with roller skating took off in 2022, a pivotal year marked by the loss of my best friend. Seeking comfort and a revitalized passion for life, I turned to the wheels, trying different styles, and meeting wonderful people along the way.

    Driven by my love for movement, honed through various dance forms like ballet, contemporary, flamenco, and ice skating, I gravitated towards roller dance, and soon after I embarked on a new exciting chapter.

    In February 2024, I fully embraced the lively roller skating community at our local rink and took the opportunity to start instructing. Roller skating has become a gateway for me to rediscover my inner child and establish a profound connection with my body and soul. As I slide on my headphones and start rolling, I'm taken to a place where I move to the beat of my wheels; it's like I'm meditating in a way.

    This profound experience inspired me to share the joy of roller skating with others, igniting a desire to teach and spread the flowing energy of movement and music. It was this aspiration that led me to seek mentorship from Morgan Weske, someone who embodies a fusion of dance and roller skating expertise; becoming the first one in Canada to get her certification.

    I’m on a mission to inspire people to dive into life's adventures so that they can feel alive, connected, and joyful. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found roller skating that does that for me. I’m stoked to share the joy and positive vibes and to continue developing what I have learned. If you find yourself in Calgary, let’s groove together!

  • Nick (California, USA)

    Hello, I’m Nick! A musician, sound healer, massage therapist and workshop retreat host based in Big Sur, California.

    I came to rollerskating in July of ‘21 as a means of self care to cope with the pandemic, a breakup and the sudden death of my sister, Sarah. What I found in rollerskating was community, music, exercise, nature, spirituality, self love and joy beyond measure. I believe each body has such innate wisdom in it, and if given a safe space and support, it can self regulate and reorganize itself back to homeostasis. Nothing moves stuck energy and gets me in my breath and body quite like rolling on 8 wheels!!

    Becoming a certified Dance Skate instructor has empowered me more than ever to help you develop the skills and body language necessary to speak with the fluency and articulation for artistic self expression, accessing a new creative potential and instilling confidence to move on skates and throughout life. Slide and glide with me and people will say you got butter on your skates!! Available for lessons online or in person throughout the Central and Southern California coast.
