What exactly is The Braille Skateboarding Academy?
Aaron Kyro developed a precise method of teaching skateboarding. After teaching thousands of people how to skateboard, he found more ways to improve upon his teaching methods. Braille Skateboarding Academy is the culmination of everything Aaron Kyro has learned since the release of Skateboarding Made Simple Volume 1 on February 11th, 2012.
He found that the very beginning of learning to skateboard was the hardest part, so he developed additional steps to undercut the basics and get any brand new skateboarder learning fast. He then found that people needed help; they needed guidance and encouragement and support. This is all built into Braille Skateboarding Academy with the one-on-one online personal coaching.
In person lessons are great, but can get expensive. An in person one-on-one lesson is $85 an hour. You will get unlimited online personal coaching for a monthly subscription fee of $19.99. On average, this is the equivalent of $300 worth of lessons each month for $19.99.
What is the difference between Skateboarding Made Simple (SMS) and Braille Skateboarding Academy (BSA)
Skateboarding Made Simple

Have fun learning
I am training my 3 year old daughter. The Braille Skateboarding Academy is excellent—clear, detailed, and easy to follow. The lessons build in smart progressions with precise demonstrations and practical drills, so every session feels purposeful and safe. Most importantly, Aaron is exceptionally wise, caring, and kind; he consistently goes the extra mile and replies to our messages quickly with thoughtful, actionable guidance. We’ve seen real progress and growing confidence in my daughter, because the program makes learning feel achievable and fun. Couldn’t recommend it more—five stars!

The app keeps crashing. Assume that it's due to it not being updated in over a year. Some of the video tutorials are old. They seem to focus on their YouTube channel with more up to date content. The ranking feature doesn't work and the people who previously had the ability haven't done an update for a number of years. All in all not a joyous experience.

If I was 16 and not 46 this would be perfect. It's all my fault I'm just not working on skating. I need to just stand on the board every day to develop my muscles. This is a wonderful service.
