Join us and let the adventure begin!

Skate Levels

Skate Level 1

These students have maybe never stood on a skateboard before or are learning to get more comfortable on their skateboards. We will work on board control, stance, balance, pushing, turning, and start on the basics of riding up and down ramps.

Skate Level 2

These students feel confident riding on their skateboard and feel comfortable riding up and down ramps. They are ready to begin working on more advanced maneuvers such as rock to fakie, drop ins, ollies, kickturns on ramps, and beyond.

Skate Level 3

These students have learned the basics of their skateboard and are ready to start working on specific tricks and style. Pop shuvits, kickflips, grinds, launches, and more! Oh my!

Youth Skate

Feel confident on your board and looking to get creative? Join us for Snap and Shred where we will learn about skateboard photography, take our own skate pictures, make stickers, interview our fellow students and create our very own skateboard magazine to take home and share with friends and family.

Teen Skate

Hang out with friends new and old and work on new skateboard tricks at Thousand Oaks Teen Center’s very own skatepark. Shred at the teen center during their skate classes or come take it easy at open skate.

Adult Skate

It’s never too late to start skating! Skateboarding is a great way to build confidence, resilience, make friends, and exercise. Come learn to ride or work on new tricks with experienced instructors.

What do I need to be ready for my skateboard program?

For all of our CRPD Skate programs you will need a skateboard, helmet, and knee and elbow pads. Wrist guards are optional! Don’t have your own gear? We have extra gear available for use during programs, use of your own gear is encouraged due to limited CRPD gear availability.

Don’t forget sunscreen, water, and if you’re doing camps bring a snack for snack time!
