“Hi Willi

Thanks for the lesson.  Here is how I know I got the right teacher/coach.  When I told you I know how to skate, you told me that I might not need a lesson.  But I wanted to go to the next level.  At the end, there was lots to work on.  I said I might need to have another one after working on several techniques, you said I did not have to, just practice.  Very enjoyable. You showed it to me very clearly on how to do it.  I would or should use the camera at the beginning as well as at the end.  Rubin Bahar”

Dec 29, 2011-“I have been wanting to inline skate for a few years now and just never followed through with it until 4 months ago; until I had enough of the procrastination I figured that I won’t ever learn unless I take the first step… I purchased skates. I tried them on and couldn’t go anywhere because of fear of falling. I contacted Willi at that time. I asked her to help me. I live in St. Petersburg…, she met me at a location near the Pinellas Trail. This lesson was great! Willi coached me along to the point that I could roll, she showed me some techniques to fast-track me through the learning process. A few months have gone by since that day. I called Willi the other day for a second coaching session. Willi watched me skate and then made suggestions on how to position my skates and use all three sides of the wheels. She showed me where and how I should land and position each skate. I will practice more now and get exercise at the same time! If you are ready for lessons or even just have questions that can be answered on the phone, Willi can help you!! – Erik in St. Petersburg”

December 29th, 2011-Today I taught skating to two wonderful little girls that are 10 and 6 living in Tierra Verde.  They were so respectful and also found out they were athletes and they both did triathlons! How impressive!  Within two hours they learned much techniques in their brand new skates that Santa brought four days ago.  They were going to the rink that evening to practice what they learned.  It was so much fun for me.  Thank you girls for that joy!  Willi

08.07.2011:“I had my first inline skating lesson yesterday with Willi.  I was very apprehensive and nervous because I hadn’t been on any kind of skates in I don’t want to tell you how many years.  She made me very comfortable and explained things simply and to the point.  I was up and about in no time flat.  Two hours went by very quickly and I went home exhilarated.   Thank you Willi.

5.27.2011-Today was Jimmi’s second lesson.  He decided to get new skates as his old ones had very soft wheels that were impeding his learning.   He was able to stand on the new ones and feel more confident on his ability to learn this sport.  He was skating!  Willi

5.13.2011-My new skater Jimmi came from Virginia for a lesson and he was such a fast learner.  He is coming back in 2 weeks to learn more and has decided to upgrade his skates.  See you in 2 weeks. Willi

Willi helped me gain muscle tone, and she helped me to stick with the program. This has brought my much joy, as it is the first time in twenty years that I have followed through with any fitness! I can SKAte!

When I injured my ankle playing football, I thought I would lose all of the muscle tone I had fought so hard to achieve. Thanks to Willi’s patience and technique, I am now learning an alternate way of staying on top of my fitness; by skating.
