International Women's Day 2017

Rebecca Timms is a fabulous member of our Rio Roller family. We had the pleasure of speaking with her today in honour of IWD, to discover a little bit more about her skating and inspirations!

Skate, Rattle and Bowl!!!

When I'm going to have a social skate with my friends - whether it be scoping out new places to take cool photography or get inspiration for a fashion concept, I love to make a statement with what I wear ..off skates and on skates!

Ditch The Gym, Pick Up Your skates!

What are the health benefits of skating ?
Aside from being so much fun, being able to listen to my favourite bands and whizz along like a hot wheels car, the health benefits are another reason I love to skate . Keeping in shape is important to me - but walking and jogging bore me to no end, and the gym is a scary concept for me... Not to mention it costs money!

Skates on the brain!

I have always been a giver-upper, nothing could keep my attention or make me want to push myself past those horrible moments when you think to yourself ‘I can’t do this’.  I’ve played multiple musical instruments, played sports at school and even gave acting a go. Obviously none of those things were for me, but finally in my 20’s I discovered the best thing ever! Roller skating!
