Olá Brasil! ICP Welcomes New Instructors!

Jan 21, 2015

The Inline Certification Program (ICP) conducted it's first Level 1 Program in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil 18-20 January, 2015. This marks the very first program we have done in the country and continent! We are so pleased to have the opportunity to influence, in our own small way, the positive growth of the sport in this vibrant city filled with enthusiastic skaters and abundant skating opportunities.

The course was held outdoors at Modern Art Museum MAM (Museu de Arte moderna) which is located in nearby Flamengo Park near the famous Flamengo beach. We were quite fortunate to have the beautiful museum as our backdrop as well as the wonderful shade it provided which made the incredible heat (36°C/97°F on Sunday!) semi-possible.

The candidates were a lively group with many already teaching professionally and socially throughout Rio and the surrounding area.
