Where Lessons Happen
Leon teaches at parks and open areas around Bronxville. Here are the spots he uses most.
Leonard Morange Park
The main park in Bronxville with paved areas and open space. Leon uses the flat sections for balance work, pushing practice, and basic turning drills. A relaxed setting for kids and adults alike.
Dogwood Park Area
A quieter spot with smooth pavement and low foot traffic. Leon uses this area when students want a calm environment to focus on fundamentals or work through something specific.
Pondfield Road Area
The wide, smooth sidewalks around Pondfield Road give students a real-world skating surface. Leon uses this area for cruising practice once students have their balance and pushing down.
What to Expect
Leon checks in before every session to see what you’re working on. If it’s your first time, he starts with the basics: finding your stance, standing on the board, and learning to push. Returning students pick back up wherever they left off.
