Richard Humphrey Roller Dance

Rich has taught me everything I know about Rollerdancing. I probably would have given up this challenging sport at the beginning if it were not for Rich’s gentle guidance and encouragement. He made something that was difficult, fun. And we’ll only keep at it if it’s fun. Because of Rich I practiced every day with his videos and after many many hours it began to flow. He taught me how to teach and now I am a dance and fitness instructor in Petaluma. It all came from Rich. If you are lucky enough to have the chance to learn from the Master, don’t hesitate
…Roll on in.

I really can’t say enough wonderful things about Richard! My partner and I started taking roller dancing lessons with Richard a little under a year ago. Originally, we wanted to learn a few moves for a performance, but we swiftly realized it was worth sticking with way beyond the performance.
I’m a cautious person who does not revel in looking stupid. In other words, the thought of falling on my ass in front of others isn’t all that appealing. Yet, Rich has a way of teaching even the most reserved person to take some chances. Now, if you’re not reserved, watch out because you’ll be doing the splits forward and backward in no time!
In his class, you’ll learn fundamentals of roller skating in addition to tricks and some very tricky dance routines. It’s clear he loves to teach others. There are allot of roller activities going on in SF these days. If you’ve been thinking about trying roller dance, there is no better place than with Richard Humphrey… whether you’re experienced or just starting. His love of skating is infectious!

I just came back to Roller Dancing after a long hiatus, and my original teacher, Richard Humphrey, luckily is still teaching. He’s a SF Roller Dance icon, who used to perform with his group the «Golden Rollers» in Golden Gate Park for hoards of adoring tourists and locals.
