Raw Meat is back at Thunderbird Community Centre for the winter! Join us every Saturday staring on September 15 from 5 to 7 at 2311 Cassiar St., near Rupert Skytrain Station. Sessions are drop-in, as always, so grab your gear and join us!
What you’ll learn:
We’ll cover stops, falls, agility drills, skating in proximity with others, a few fun tricks, and some (non-contact) derby strategy drills.
What to bring:
You must have roller skates, and all safety gear: knee pads, elbow pads, wrist guards, helmet, and mouth guard. The venue also requires everyone to use white or light-coloured, non-marking toe stoppers. If your knee pads are black, please cover them with white, non-marking hockey tape. Vertical strips of tape work best.
The rules:
Raw Meat has two rules: 1. Be Safe, 2. Don’t be an asshat. All sessions are non-contact.
