About Competitive Skating Coaching
Why I Coach
Skating feels like a part of who I am. Since I was five, the rink has seen my best and toughest days, from local tracks to world championships. Now, nothing beats the thrill of watching my own students, my champs, standing proud on that podium.
What Drives Us
Team ERSC isn’t just a club, it’s a family. We push each other, celebrate every win, and share every fall. Our motto? Practice like you’ve never won… perform like you’ve never lost. Grit, discipline, and self-belief are what matter most here—not just medals.
How We Train
Training with us is tough, but worth it if you’re serious about competing. Here’s what we focus on:
- On-skate: Speed, technique, race smarts—especially for roller speed skating training Bangalore style.
- Off-skate: Strength, stamina, running, resistance. Every champ needs strong legs and a stronger mind.
We offer athlete development for skating competitions across all ages, from tiny beginners (5+) to Masters.
Pick Your Track
Love speed? Inline or ice, we’ve got you covered. Into team play? Inline hockey coaching Bangalore sessions are intense but fun. Want adrenaline? Our alpine and downhill crew is always looking for the next braveheart.
Our Track Record

My Story
We’re Esther Roller Skating Club, started by me, Esther. Skating’s been my thing since I was a tiny kid, thanks to my mom. From parks to podiums, I’ve slid, skated, and glided my way to over 100 golds. ERSC began in 2005 with just 40 kids and now, we’re 10,000 strong. We’re a proper family here – skaters, parents, coaches, all cheering each other on. For me, skating is a lifetime joy, not just a sport.
My Work
Coaching for all styles - We teach Speed skating, Alpine skating classes, Downhill, Ice skating, and Inline hockey training for every level.
Building champions - Discipline, focus, and grit – that’s our way. Our skaters win medals at all levels, including national competitions.
Family vibes - ERSC is more than a club. We celebrate wins together, and our ‘mommies of ERSC’ group keeps the spirit alive.
Skating for special needs children - We mentor kids with special needs, helping them build confidence and compete in events like Special Olympics.
