I had been lurking in the Empowr CIC WhatsApp group for a while. I'd recommend the reasonably priced, well-structured courses. The staff are very helpful and knowledgeable; the attendees are friendly... See more

Very clear and easy to follow instructions. Jasmine is super lovely and despite a large class she's able to address where you need to improve without making you feel singled out. Would love to attend... See more

Loving the new format of Monday sessions!

I love the new format of the Monday sessions! As I'm becoming a more confident skater, a mixed session format of drills with time to do my own thing is perfect. It's a space that's also beginner friendly for someone starting from absolute scratch. Everyone is supportive and encouraging to each other. It's a good space to learn from people who are more advanced than you, a great teacher and Empowr team.

Monday Skate Jam & Coaching

I went to the new Monday Skate Jam & Coaching Session that just started.
Great concept- for the less confident who would like to practice with the comfort of an experience teacher on hand for support and advice.
As someone who is not a complete beginner but not quite a fully confident intermediate- Im usually stuck in spaces where I feel intimidated around more advanced skaters but want to move on from beginner skate classes.
Thank you to Jasmine and the Empowr team!

Great session!

Fun session with options depending on your level but also challenging, which is what makes progress. A combination of free skate, specific drills and easy dance routines. I would recommend it to anyone planning on learning how to roller skate. It's a friendly environment with a coach who puts you at ease.

Roller skating birthday party.

Empowr CIC hosted my son's roller skating birthday party.

He had an amazing time and so did all of his friends.

The Empowr CIC team were kind, helpful and super patient with all the children.

I've had so many messages saying what a great party it was and this is all down to your team so once again, thank you.

Decathlon Skate Sessions

Going to the decathlon skate sessions has really helped me a lot with my skating. I am getting much more confident and learning so much.
Jasmine is a brilliant instructor the way she explains things by breaking it down makes its so much easier to understand. The space is a good size and the floor is smooth. The 2 hr time slot is also a good amount of time to learn and get loads of practice in. I would 100% recommend.

Friday classes @ Decathlon

Friday classes at Decathlon are brilliant! The space is nice and a good size. Jasmine is the perfect instructor, she's really lovely and she explains everything step by step with tips tailored to you and your level. I would 100% recommend!

The place is not very big but this time…

The place is not very big but this time fill of people. It is maybe OK for people already a pro, but for people not very confident, seeing so many people packed in a small place and some of them going really fast is a bit daunting. Only wish the venue is bigger or the organiser limit the maximum number of people in one session.

Children's birthday party

We celebrated my daughters Birthday with Empowr CiC. Everyone from the parents, family & children had a really good time!. Jasmine and her team were super friendly and helped those who had never skated before.
Jasmine answered all the questions that I had prior to the day, made sure everyone was happy& had a range of skate sizes available too!.
My daughter still talks about her skate party a month later!
