L'organisateur a commencé par nous réapprendre les bases, ce qui était très pratique pour les différents niveaux des personnes, puis il a enchaîné jusqu'aux arrêts plus poussés. Nous n'avons pas fait de longs déplacement en ville sauf pour aller du point de RDV au point d'apprentissage. L'apprentissage vu pendant ce cours est surtout pour assimiler les mouvements pour ensuite s'entraîner seule plus tard. L'apprentissage était très compréhensible et didactique.

je n'avais jamais fait de rollers quad, en un cours, j'ai appris les bases pour rouler, amorcer un virage, et freiner, je suis très contente de pouvoir maintenant pratiquer.

Niveau débutant, on apprend les bases du roller suivi et conseillé par le professeur. Entre l'arrivée et le départ du local l'activité dure bien 2h, et vraiment 1h de roller, ce qui est vraiment bien pour apprendre les bases, pratiquer, s'entraîner et s'amuser :)

Pédagogique et amusant. Je le conseille

Roller niveau débutant : Sympa, bonne ambiance, prof pédagogue. Dommage que tout le monde ne soit pas du même niveau. J’étais la seule vraie débutante du groupe donc j’ai fait les exercices toute seule...
