Skating, like anything, has lots of ups and downs, and my coaching style focuses on providing progressive information, gradually building skills to ensure understanding and mastery. I don’t like to overload students with too much whilst they’re mastering the basics! Spins and one-foot balance classes are among my favorite skills to teach, as they unlock so much control and take you to the next level of skating. Fun fact about me: I have a tendency to burst into song randomly! When I’m not skating with Isle of Skating, you can find me across London from Flippers to Bethnal Green. Remember, don't compare yourself to others—others may appear to do more than you, but embrace your own skating journey and you will get to where you want to be!"

"Hey there skaters! I'm Luna, a roller derby enthusiast and the proud owner of Skate Wiznezz, all the way from Hong Kong!

I landed in London in February 2024, bringing my passion for all things skating with me. My journey started on figure and speed skates at the young age of 9, but derby truly stole my heart in 2014. You could say I live and breathe skating – any style, anywhere! I even took the "wear your skates for 24 hours" challenge to the extreme, sleeping in them (don't worry, I brought comfy socks!).

When it comes to coaching, I believe strong fundamentals are the foundation of derby greatness. My approach is all about building confidence. I can help you master the basics or add exciting variations to keep things challenging. "
