SKATE SESSIONS
The Hera Skate Sessions provide a welcoming space for the Flinta community to meet and skate together. Two Roll Models support newcomers and beginners, fostering an environment where participants can create friendships, build confidence, express themselves, and develop new skills. By cultivating a sense of community, solidarity, and safety in a public space, the sessions break down barriers in a male-dominated sport. Participants are accepted and celebrated for being themselves, however they choose to identify.


CREATIVE WORKSHOPS
The Hera Creative Workshops empower Flinta participants to express themselves and build connections through creative processes. Led by two Roll Models, these workshops provide safer spaces to explore sensitive topics, fostering open discussions and personal growth. The Skate and Create Events feature projects such as the Hera Zine, Pop-Up markets, Street Zines and exhibitions that showcase both workshop outcomes and individual artworks of collective members, promoting artistic expression in a supportive environment.
