My kids love to skate here. There's a half pipe, quarter pipes, stairs, rails, all the stuff they need to practice on. There's a couch area in the front lobby for them to chill when they need a break and a balcony with air hockey. When the weather is good they can open up to have another half pipe outside. But honestly as a parent why I love this place so much is the instructors. They are all so positive and know how to motivate kids. They remember my kids each time they go, and we mix up locations often. My kids have made several good friends through Square State and these are the things that matter most to me. read more

Today my 13-year-old had a private session with Tom at the Denver location and it was such a wonderful experience. My kiddo is just starting off skateboarding and Tom did such a wonderful job teaching even the basics. I cannot wait for the next session. My kid was so excited and confident after their session and cannot wait for her next lesson. I highly recommend square state skate. Such a great business. read more

Just went here for father's day. We booked a private lesson. It was super fun and an all around awesome experience. Ben was super helpful and informative! Thank you Ben! :) read more

Square State Skate has MADE my son's summer. And now my daughter wants to sign up too. They teach the kids how to skate with great techniques and even greater results. But the best thing about the program is that they also model and teach other skills, like being respectful, keeping track of your own stuff, and helping other kids out. And it works because the coaches are actually COOL, unlike us parents (according to our kids anyway). So the kids really listen to them and are motivated to follow their lead. They know how to lead and inspire a group of kids, keep them safe and show them a rocking' good time. The only bad thing I can say is this - if you take your kids to Square State Skate Camp, they won't like their other camps as much, because this one is by far the best! We look forward to participating in Square State programs during the winter months too. read more

These guys are the best!!! Brian, David, Ted, Ric... The list goes on. My son Sebastian has been skating with Square State for about 3 years, both in the summer camps and in the after school program. They are conscientious, stand-up guys providing an amazing program to get kids skating and having a blast. My son is not that into team sports, but he has LOVED skateboarding and it's been really fun to see him grow his skateboarding abilities and bond with this great group of coaches and other young skaters in the Boulder skate community. I can't say enough good about Square State Skate!! read more

My son absolutely loves Square State Skate. Every school break, all summer, and every Saturday, he asks to attend. Not only do they learn to skateboard but they have fun doing it and gain self confidence. One of my favorite things is at the end of the day, the kids circle up and talk about what they learned. One of the questions they always ask is "who fell today?" And of course, everyone raises their hand. But seeing that everyone falls and everyone is learning has really built up my son's confidence. I highly recommend Square State for your skateboard loving kids! read more

My son has attended the camps at Square State Skate (SSS) for the past 4 years and will again this summer. He has made great friends, learned some cool tricks and most importantly, has gained confidence in himself. This camp is better than any other summer camp experience. It is fun, because of course, the kids get to spend all day skating at the best parks with their buddies. They also have pizza parties, bbqs, swimming, visits from sponsored/competitive skaters and make a point of supporting locally owned and operated shops. SSS are advocates of health and fitness and manage to steer clear of the some of the more unsavory associations skateboarding might have. SSS is its own community, completely independent of the parents. It gives kids a sense of contributing to something important and of belonging to a tradition, and they own it. There is an ethos of personal responsibility and leadership. The older campers are taught to extend this to the newer ones so the counselors are mentors instead of disciplinarians. What's more, the counselors always seem to be enjoying themselves as much as the campers. My son once said that what he likes best is that he can just be himself and do his thing at Square State. If he can feel free but still be safe and healthy, that is pretty much the perfect combo. read more
