What I do
Roller skating lessons
Hi, I’m Laurie. I’ve spent my life on wheels, and roller skating has always been more than just a hobby—it’s where I found my community. I founded LBM Skates because I wanted to turn my years of experience into a legacy, passing the joy of skating down from one generation to the next. To me, skating isn’t just a skill; it’s a powerful way to build confidence, spark connections, and bring people together.” At the moment I conduct lessons within Brighton and Hove,Worthing,lancing,Peacehaven,NewHaven.

One skate at a time
1 on 1 roller skating teaching
Together, we’ll master the basics at a pace that feels right for you. Whether you’re taking your very first ‘baby steps’ or ready for big strides, I tailor every lesson to your specific goals. My mission is to ensure you walk (or roll!) away from every session feeling confident, capable, and completely fulfilled.
Selecting boots and fasterning
Choosing your first pair of skates shouldn’t be a guessing game. I’ll guide you through the entire process from recommending the perfect boots for your feet to finding the most reliable shops. I’ll even show you how to fasten and fit them correctly, ensuring you have the support and safety you need to roll with confidence.
Group Sessions
If you have a group of friends who want to learn together, I offer group sessions. It is a great way to learn the basics while spending time with people you know.”
Children
“I hold a current DBS certificate and offer skating lessons for both children and adults. Whether you are looking for a coach for your child or want to learn yourself, I provide a safe and professional environment for all ages.
FAQs
Do I need head and knee and elbow protection
I would highly recommend wearing elbow and knee protection when your first starting as falling over is part of learning.
Where do I conduct the lessons
“I hold my lessons at suitable outdoor spots across Brighton. I specifically choose locations with smooth tarmac to ensure a safe and steady surface for learning.” Also it depends on the customers location.

How much do lessons cost
A standard one-hour lesson is £25. If you are booking for a group of people, I offer a reduced rate per person. Please contact me for a specific quote based on your group size.”
How quickly will I learn the basics
It usually takes about one to three weeks to see results, but everyone is different. The more effort you put in, the faster you’ll reach your goal.
Do I need my own skates to start?
Ideally, yes. However, if you haven’t purchased them yet, I can provide expert recommendations on the best boots for your foot shape and skill level. I can also point you toward the best local shops in Brighton to ensure you get a quality pair.
Do you teach children?
Yes. I am DBS checked and offer lessons for both children and adults. I make sure the environment is safe and the teaching style is appropriate for the student’s age.
