Program
You will learn longboard dancing within 6 intense training sessions from Monday to Saturday. There will be 1 training session a day lasting 3 hours with a break of 1 hour inbetween. This results in 6 training sessions and a total of 18 hours to learn longboard dancing and grow your flow.
We have 4 trainers, who alternate throughout the week. So you won’t be learning from the same person all the time. This has the advantage that you will receive a more varied input and benefit from the diversity of the trainers.
The group is therefore divided into 2 – 3 learning groups: beginners and advanced riders. The amount of groups depends on the amount of participants and their riding skills.Thanks to the large team, we are flexible and will decide the amount of groups spontaneously.

Setup Workshop @ Concrete Wave
As special activity we will visit the local longboard shop Concrete Wave Skateshop, where we will explain all the components of the longboard to you. Many people are overwhelmed by all the information and don’t know where to start. Especially when you don’t own a longboard yet, you will have a huge benefit. At Concrete Wave, you will not only get to know the shop team, but also get a good overview thanks to the wide range of products. Concrete Wave stocks pretty much everything in the longboard sector and is one of the largest shops in Europe.
City tour
As special activity we will do a city ride through the center. We will explore the area around the Rhine which provides lots of good tracks for long boarding. The tour can be finished in one of the many cologne breweries with a „Kölsch“ or a non-alcoholic drink. You may think: why is this a training session? Skating from A to B is part of longboarding. It is the best practice to get more comfortable with the board, reduce anxiety and learn how to handle different obstacles, such as boardwalks, people, bikes, etc. Besides that it’s also a great way to explore the city.
Yoga
Three beginner-friendly yoga sessions provide physical and mental relaxation. You can expect a mix of slow flow units and deep stretches. Weather permitting, the yoga sessions will take place in the inner courtyard of the accommodation or directly at the skatespot. Yoga mats will be provided.
