m_fkillToday I helped El Vicious, Hula Gunn and Dot slash teach Jammer and Jammer Killing at the Hellfire Harlots.
Tomorrow will be learning Strategy from Stef Mainey and Kamikaze Kitten.
Being able to learn new skills and pass them on is one of the coolest things about Roller Derby. It doesn't matter how good you are there is always someone that can teach you new skills and techniques.
Sometimes that learning can come from the unlikeliest of places. Its possible that the newest skater on you league will teach you something as important as the best coach can.
Be open to learning at every opportunity it doesn't always happen on the track,during drills. It can be a throwaway comment from a team mate that will make you think differently about your game. It can be a structured conversation that will provoke you into pushing yourself harder or trying something new.
When you have the opportunity to learn take in as much of it as possible, you never know when what you learn will make a big difference
