OLD NALEDI ACTIVATION

We took a trip to the community in Old Naledi to teach and introduce skateboarding to the youth out there. We realised that Introducing skateboarding to Old Naledi can provide children and youth with a new recreational activity that is both engaging and accessible. Skateboarding offers an alternative to traditional sports and can be enjoyed individually or in groups, allowing individuals to develop their skills at their own pace. Learning to skateboard requires perseverance, determination, and resilience. By teaching skateboarding in Old Naledi, individuals can develop important life skills such as goal-setting, problem-solving, and overcoming challenges.
