At Champion Skate, we love that skating is so much fun while also providing a great workout, but the health benefits are just the tip of the iceberg. Read on to learn why you should head to Champion Skate to hit the rink whenever you feel like roller skating.

Socializing

A trip to the skating rink is always a good time because it’s so much more fun and social than skating outdoors. When you skate with us, you can enjoy great music, meet new people, and play skating games. Who knows, you may make some new friends… Or even find that special someone!

Safety

There’s a reason so many people prefer skating indoors to taking their skates outside–it’s simply safer. Why risk dangerous traffic, uneven pavement, sidewalk cracks, and other hazards when you can skate on a smooth wooden floor in the comfort of our air-conditioned skating rink?

If you have kids, it’s even more important to give them a safe place to skate where they can cut loose and have fun. They’ll have have a blast and you can breathe easy knowing they’re in a safe, family-friendly environment.

Skates

If you own your own skates, you may be tempted to take them for a spin outside, but be aware that skating outdoors causes much more damage to roller skates than skating on a well-maintained indoor rink like the one at Champion Skate. Outdoor skating even requires different wheels, and you’d be surprised how quickly they get worn down and damaged from rough surfaces and debris.

Service

When you come to Champion Skate, you’re not just getting a fun, safe place to skate; we also offer friendly, knowledgeable service to help keep you rolling! Our skate shop provides maintenance and repairs for your skates, so you can enjoy all of the fun of roller skating without the hassle of maintaining your own skates.

When the time comes for a new set of skates, we have a great selection of top roller skate brands to choose from, and we can even advise you on style and fit to ensure you wind up with a pair of skates you’ll love.

If you have ever thought roller skating was good for your body, but did not do much for your mind you are not alone. This is a common misconception; one that has been perpetuated by the media, your Physical Education teacher, and the like. What if we told you that roller skating is actually good for your body and your mind! At Champion Skate in Warren, Ohio, we love when something is surprisingly healthy for all aspects of the body. Check out some ways roller skating not only benefits your body, but also engages your mind!

Get in Balance

Not only will skating improve your balance, leading to better stability and fitness physically, but having better balance also helps your brain sync up, leading to a clearer mind overall.

Grow Some Brain Cells

Growth factors are chemicals in the brain, released when we exercise. These components are responsible in part for making new brain cells thereby helping us learn and retain new information easier.

Reduce Stress

Increased levels of stress can make you feel like you have brain fog, and you will not perform as well. When you roller skate, certain chemicals such as serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine are released helping your overall functionality.

Get A Memory Boost

One of the best ways to slow or even prevent Alzheimer’s Disease is by engaging in regular physical activity, according to the Alzheimer’s Disease Education and Referral Center. Roller skating is a fun way to not only reconnect with your youth, but also lower your risk of this terrible disease.

Beat the Blues

Feeling a little blue? It has been said that physical activity can reduces symptoms of depression almost as effectively antidepressants.

At Champion Skate we truly believe roller skating is one of the best activities for people of all ages. Not only is it fun and social, but it’s also great exercise! Unfortunately some people are scared to try roller skating because they fear looking silly or taking a fall.

If you’re not fully confident in your skating abilities, don’t worry. We welcome skaters of all ages and abilities, and our DJs and floor guards are happy to give you pointers to help you get the hang of this skating thing. Everyone has to start somewhere, and once you get confident in your skating abilities, you will wish you had started sooner!

Roller skating can be intimidating for kids, but at Champion Skate we make it easy with our Skate Mates.

What Is A Skate Mate?

A Skate Mate is a tool designed to help kids learn to skate by offering stability. It’s basically a frame on wheels, which kids can lean on as a “safety net” while they get the hang of balancing on skates and learning how to move on wheels. Think of a Skate Mate as training wheels for roller skating. Your child can enjoy skating with the big kids while they learn and build confidence, and eventually they should be able to ditch the Skate Mate and start skating all on their own. Even toddlers can learn to skate this way!

We offer Skate Mates to our guests for a rental fee of $5.

Roller skating is a great activity for all ages, mainly because it’s FUN! But did you know that roller skating is not just fun, it’s also healthy?

One of the hardest parts about sticking to an exercise routine is staying interested. When people get bored, they are less likely to continue working out, and may end up giving up altogether. However, choosing fun and exciting activities will help you stay motivated.

Roller skating fits the bill because it’s so fun you probably won’t even realize you’re getting a great workout! There are many ways roller skating can benefit your body, including:

• Cardiovascular fitness- Skating can get your heart rate up and burn plenty of calories. Over time you may notice that you have more stamina and speed!
• Low impact- Roller skating is a low-impact sport, which means it puts less stress on your joints compared to other activities like running, basketball, baseball, etc.
• Builds muscles– Roller skating engages not only your legs, but also your glutes and core abdominal muscles. Skating regularly will help you develop those muscle groups which can help you in other sports as well.

If you want to make roller skating a regular part of your fitness routine, come to Champion Skate! We’re located on Mahoning Avenue (State Route 45) in Warren, Ohio and are open Thursday through Saturday for open skating.

Check out our schedule for hours and be sure to take a look at our specials to see our current deals. Bring the whole family for an afternoon or evening of exercise while having fun and listening to great music!
