Coach Evan, head coach at Colorado Skateboarding Lessons

Evan · Head Coach

Who's teaching

30 years on a board.
Now coaching yours.

Evan is a professional skateboarder with more than 30 years of riding — a world-traveled demo rider, skatepark builder, and the coach who performed the opening demo at Egypt's first skatepark.

He built Colorado Skateboarding Lessons because most skate instruction is aimed only at kids. Here, a 45-year-old learning to push gets the same structured coaching as a 9-year-old learning to drop in.

The community

Skating isn't
just for kids

Nearly a third of our riders are adults — parents who started while waiting for their kid's lesson, women picking it up in their forties, and people who skated in the nineties and want it back.

Sessions are grouped by ability, not age, so you're always learning next to people at your level.

What progress actually looks like

Zach came in unable to push. This is a few months of consistent coaching.

From first push
to full send

Every rider gets a written progression plan, so you can see exactly what's next — not just show up and hope.

What riders and parents say

“I have made more progress in the past 2 months doing clinics and lessons with @rockymountain_shredschool than I did in the past 2 years trying to figure it out on my own. He makes things feel safe to try and we have a lot of fun in the process.”

Gretchen
Clinics & lessons

“He has been amazing not only for my son, but for me (43yo male) as well! … In the past three months, my son and I have been crushing it thanks to Coach Evan's simplistic way of teaching and meeting us where we are at. We are now doing tricks, drop-ins, and surfing our way through skateparks wherever we can find one!”

DT & AG
Father & son · Ages 43 & 8

“For starters, he helped me build more confidence on my longboard. I started out mostly as a newbie at age 26, after only skating a handful of times growing up. … My confidence grew in the park because I had a friendly and professional teacher to guide me.”

Sarah
Beginner student · Age 26

“That was awesome. Finn LOVED it and can’t wait for the next one. You are a great instructor.”

FAQ

Questions, answered

Do you really teach adults?+

Yes — adult beginners are one of our largest groups. Sessions are grouped by ability, so you'll be learning alongside people at your level, not surrounded by kids.

What ages do you teach?+

Ages 3 through 70+. Skater Tots covers the little ones, kids and teens have their own structured track, and adults have theirs.

Do we need our own board?+

Plan to bring your own if you have one. We do board tune-ups, sizing recommendations and honest advice on gear that actually suits you. Plan to bring your own gear — loaner equipment is only available if you ask the coach ahead of time. Bring water and flat closed-toe shoes.

Where do lessons happen?+

Vetted Denver-area skateparks chosen for skill level, with indoor options when weather turns.

What if I've never stepped on a board?+

That's the most common starting point. The first session covers stance, pushing, stopping and falling safely.

How much do skateboard lessons cost?+

$100 per hour for adults, kids, teens and Skater Tots. Women's classes are $25 for one hour or $50 for two. Up to four people can split a single lesson fee.
