Dianasciandra shares this picture from Lorin Farr Skate Park, with the caption   I’d like to think my best trait as a coach is looking somebody in the eye and making them believe that no matter what.. “I got you” . Believe me, I don’t necessarily know how you’re gonna deal with life’s challenges but I do know , whatever happens, “I got you”! Luckily for little Miss B, she is fiercer than she knows. Second try, no hands, Now she is free in the skate park to do what she wants. It’s all shreddy from here! Way to conquer fear today B!

Thanks to all the coaches like Diana!  And you don’t have to be some super shredder to help someone else – sometimes the best help is from your friends.  Be checking the Upcoming Events Tab on the Blog for events like
