Would the 80s be forever? Roller dance, coming from the American West Coast, is making a big comeback in France, in particular thanks to social networks,

At Christmas, big brands are looking for the right formula… and sometimes the right size. An ephemeral “roller dance” track has been installed on the fourth floor of a Parisian department store. Roller dance is the new phenomenon of the moment. “I wore this when I was young. And showing it to children today is also showing them that what we were inventing in the 70s, 80s and 90s was not that has been that”, says a man.

Rym Senoussi has been a roller skating teacher for three years. “Since the deconfinement, we have really seen a huge boom, our courses are full very quickly and the requests for our courses are numerous”, she explains.
