SLX Benedita
The SLX – Skate Learn and Experience program aims to help students, in a school environment, to both value themselves as individuals and to develop interpersonal skills. In addition, while having skate at its core, the program provides work tools in different areas, such as: arts, construction, sports and multimedia.
Although it is an individual sport, skateboarding contributes deeply to the development of social and creative skills and to enhance resilience and determination. Driven by its irreverent side, the modality is also a great vehicle of influence for younger people, and its values and teachings contribute significantly to build a more inclusive and creative society.
