Roller Dance Owl with Daya – Sit Still Look Pretty and guest Mo Sanders

The “Roller Skating Fun” summer 2018 project has been created from our love and passion for roller skating. We skate in different styles, we dance, and we play various games on roller skates. We skate alone, with partners, and in groups. We skate slalom – around cones and doing other tricks.
Roller skating keeps us creative, healthy and happy. Roller skating is like a rainbow in the sky – colorful and magical. Just try it!
Lana and the skate crew.

Roller Dance Owl Video Shooting, Summer 2017

Thank you, dear sponsors, for all your help and cooperation in materializing our project.
Video/ photo shooting of Roller Dance Owl students first achievements were a great
success! Roller Dance Owl students had their first experience of star performances
showcasing the results of their hard work, and tried roles of models and actors and even
got some special treats. We already have important new goals for the future and will
keep up with the hard work for new achievements!

First of all, our special thank you goes to Kathie Chiu, the major of Salvation Army, Richmond BC for partnership and collaboration! Considering the fact that there are no roller
skating rinks in British Columbia, we wouldn’t have a place to practice if Salvation Army
didn’t let us use the facility that became Roller Dance Owl home. 

We are so grateful to DJ Aaries and singer Supa  Peach (Arizona, USA) for offering us
to dance to their song “Life of The Party”. Maybe one day Roller Dance Owl students
will dance at Supa Peach’s concert on a big stage! Download this awesome song
here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/tlat218s3u5a5cc/Life_Of_The_Party.mp3 

We are tremendously grateful to everybody who supported us:
Lululemon (Richmond Centre) provided an outfit (beautiful jacket and leggings) for Lana
Shahar-Kulik (Roller Dance Owl founder & instructor), GAP (Richmond Centre) provided
cute bottoms for kids from Summer 2017 collection. Special thanks to GAP Richmond General manager Amina Adam. We all are so proud to represent these awesome brands in our second video! 

Special thanks to Coastal Reign for lovely t-shirts with logo of our school printed in gold
foil for Lana.

Lena Zavelion (Pure Beauty Salon) took care of Lana (founder & instructor
of Roller Dance Owl) before video/ photo shooting.

Fidget spinners and chocolate.

Tanya Mezetseva (Curteks – custom design solutions) took care of the
background of our shooting area.

Rob DJ Asanas provided colorful balloons for our video/ photo shooting.

Shop Task Inline Skates Shop provided cute pink cones for slalom tricks.
