The DMU Roller Society is a community focused on making roller skating big again and getting people excited about all styles of skating. Whether you've never been on wheels before or you're an absolute pro, all skill levels are welcome.
We have limited numbers of rental skates available for members per session or you can feel free to bring your own pair!
We have sessions putting together all members, of all skill levels, on all kinds of skates, including beginners. We will have a few experienced skaters among us to help you learn and pick up the basics. Don't worry if you stumble and fall a few times; we all had to learn the hard way!
We hold meetings at the Student Union Campus Centre building in the function rooms 2.01 and 2.02. We hold weekly indoor roller discos which include a space to skate around with music of your choice! All music tastes are welcome, we'd love to hear what you're into, as long as it's not overtly sensitive, explicit or potentially distressing to listen to! Have a song you're burning to skate to? Add it to our group Spotify playlist in the Discord server or queue your song on the day using the computer.
While we cannot recommend the exact skates to get if you wish to buy your own, you can feel free to message us via Instagram, DIscord or our email and we will be happy to help you understand the types of skates and components you should look at for your specific style. We also have skate buying guides so you know what to look out for when buying skates! We have a dedicated channel on the Discord for discussing gear and parts where you can seek advice not only from the committee, but from other members too!
