Check that out here; https://youtu.be/hh1RfqjULCk?si=sbutCQJ792MN-MLhWhat are the benefits of paying for this online course when you can just watch individual tutorial videos on YouTube instead?The main benefit is that the course contents are arranged in chronological order of difficulty so easier skills, before harder skills. This seems obvious but when YOU choose which skill to learn next (based on your interest, curiosity & desire), you wont necessarily know that in choosing the next skill you will most probably skip over a bunch of prerequisite skills – thus hindering your progress before you even start and making your learning journey much longer (and more painful).For example, MANY skaters decide they want to learn the Powerstop or some kind of Turn stop but they haven’t yet mastered the Lunge Turn on its own. Without a solid, smooth Lunge Turn, it’ll take a long time to learn the Lunge Stop. So the order you want to learn skills in, probably isn’t the safest or most efficient order to follow for optimal progress.Amir does a great job here in learning the Lunge Turn and then perfecting the Lunge Stop (which isn’t an easy stopping method for most intermediate skaters).If you’re struggling with learning higher level skills, it’s not because you lack talent or motivation, but because you lack a system specifically designed for intermediate skaters that teaches all the components of each skill, in the right oder so that progress is consistent and fun! Getting stuck and frustrated is the opposite of fun.The Skatefresh system was designed over Asha’s 26 years teaching tens of thousands of real adults (of all levels), and experimenting with what worked best. Asha’s progressions and step-by-step instructions have been used successfully by thousands of skaters all over the world.The alternative ‘method’ of “practicing” a move over and over and over is not the best option, because until all the different pieces of the skill are known and skated, it’ll feel risky or scary to try it all at once. If you’re falling while practicing that’s a sign on things going badly wrong. Imagine learning without falling all the time because you’re actually doing the right thing at the right moment.The Skatefresh method combines Progressions, Mechanics and Self-Analysis (which we teach you with our unique secret method). Don’t leave your learning to trial and error. Follow these tested pathways through our trusted programs.Who is Asha Skatefresh?
