Youth players
Working with kidsCoach Evan is specially gifted in connecting with each student based on their emotions and comfort level. He is playful, light hearted and articulate. Whether gamified or more educational and motivating, each student will get a custom experience to build on their personal needs.
Working with teenagersEven though teens can be self conscious they make great students when they apply themselves because of the greater understanding they have with their bodies and spatial awareness. Kiddos are still learning language and coordination but teens are more advanced and are able to progress through trick challenges very quickly. Coach Evan is great at encouraging the socially nervous and maximizing the athleticism of courageous students
What you need to bringA helmet & rubber soled low-profile tennis shoes are required, and safety pads are strongly recommended for elbow, knee, wrist protection. Many students love the added comfort of “crash shorts” for tailbone and hip protection.
What I can bringCoach Evan can bring various skate elements from different size skateboards to ramps, rails, slalom cones, Ollie trainers, and even special event props like the signature rainbow tunnel and stairs! Birthday party lessons often include his toy fingerboarding mini skatepark!
