Roll Out Bullying at Roller Cave!

roll

October is National Bullying Prevention Month, so our team at Roller Cave of Indianapolis, IN has decided to make it our theme for the first half of the month. Learn more out why educating others about anti-bullying is so important by reading more below.

Bullying Awareness

Founded in 2006 by PACER.org, the National Bullying Prevention Month campaign has moved from a week long event to a month long campaign since the time of its inception. The purpose of this campaign is to provide nationwide awareness of bullying prevention and aims to squash old views about bullies, such as they are simply a ‘rite of passage’ for youth to deal with. In reality bullying can lead to lowered self esteem, self confidence and negative situations that many take into adulthood.

Helpful Resources

Many schools, businesses and organizations participate in bullying prevention during October. If you have children in school, it is likely they will be attending or participating in some form of anti-bullying program this month. However, if you would like to learn more about this topic or get some tips for speaking to your kids about bullying, here are a few helpful resources:

 

Roller Cave – Anti-Bullying Month

Self Improvement Month

joy

Indianapolis, did you know that September is Self Improvement Month? It’s true, and Roller Cave provides the perfect place for you to improve yourself, like by adding a new skill (roller skating) or by becoming more healthy via roller skating!

Skate Lessons

If your goal for Self Improvement Month is to become healthier, why not give roller skating a try? Even if you have not been on skates for years, it is still never too late to try again! At Roller Cave we can help you even more, by offering our fantastic Learn to Skate class. In our classes we expect for students to strive for proficiency but not perfection. Approaching skills in this manner keeps skating fun, increases confidence, and allows every skater to enjoy classes. Find out more about our skate lessons here.

Roller Skating for Health

If you have read our blog before, then you have probably seen us mention about roller skating being good for your health. The fact is…it really is good for you! Roller skating is a fun, low impact sport that allows skaters to work a huge range of muscles in their bodies, particularly your major muscle groups – glutes, quads, abdomen, calves and arms. It also provides great cardiovascular exercise, which is an important piece of weekly (or daily) exercise for those trying to live a healthier lifestyle.

Roller Cave Fun!

Regardless of how you want to spend your time during Self Improvement Month, we do hope you choose to spend some of it with us at Roller Cave! We have plenty of fun things to do at our facility, including roller skating around the rink, hitting some fast balls in the Bat Cave, browsing through the Roller Cave Skate Shop and much more!
