Do you find skateboarding a hard sport and still debate whether to try it out? Are you inspired by the agility of extreme sports athletes? Here is the opportunity for you to explore the sports!
 
Department of Sports is offering free skateboarding and BMX Biking coaching for thrill seekers from June 1 at Taipei City Extreme Sports Training Center. National skateboarding coach Chang Ming-tang and BMX biker Zheng Cheng-zong will be sharing knowledge and helping participants sharpen their skills.
 
The coaching sessions are scheduled for Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, starting at 2 PM and ending at 6 PM respectively. There are also two Sunday sessions—one running from 9 AM to 12 PM, and the other from 1 PM to 6 PM. The sessions are open to sign up on site.
 
Located near MRT Nankang Station, Taipei City Extreme Sports Training Center is one of the few extreme sports centers in Taiwan that are certified by international standards. The center runs from 8 AM to 10 PM and free of charge. It also offers summer activities for children to try out and spend time practicing sports.
 
Department of Sports encourages sports fans, both adults and children, to enjoy the fun and thrill. The agency also reminds that participants should bring their own equipment (skateboards, bikes, and protective gear).
