Skating

Does anyone else enjoy skating. I have started going to a quad roller skating group (discos!). I also now go to an in-line skating group which goes out into the parks in the better weather. I've always enjoyed ice skating although don't go that often as I could never find skates that didn't hurt my feet.

I find skating wonderful exercise and it is especially good for developing the 'core muscles' in the stomach area as well as strengthening the legs and improving the balance.

I have not been to any classes but in typical Autie or Aspie fashion I can learn by teaching myself and can now skate backwards.

  • Greetings to anyone here. This is now a Five Year Old Thread. Yet given the topic - Skating - anyone reading should still be doing it, at least at times...?

    I am asking - Here, again - if anyone then or now, ever or still now does RollerSkating (not Ice Skating), especially in London. Hyde Park and Battersea Park are the main places to do so. Good Fortune to All who do so anyway.

    ...Now it is May 2019. I am re-posting this because it is 'The Season' for it right now. I just want to know if I am alone or not, in being an Adult RollerSkater with Autism, who is upon this Forum. Thanks very muchly.
