Welcome to Dragon Belly Rollers – PNW Roller Fit — a unique, heart-led skating experience where movement meets mental wellness, and every stride is a step toward empowerment.
This is more than a skate class. It’s a space for healing, growth, and self-expression. Whether you’re lacing up for the first time or returning to the rink after years away, you're welcomed into a community that celebrates every body, every background, and every journey.
Led by the dynamic duo Shanel Bell ( (pronounced like the perfume—Chanel) and Kelly Britt (aka Kitty B Getya, former Rose City Roller), Dragon Belly blends two distinct skating styles into one shared mission: to move with intention, support mental health, and uplift one another.
– Kelly focuses on quads, guiding skaters through derby-based drills, strength-building, and grounded technique.
– Shanel leads with blades, flowing with grace, rhythm, and high-energy freedom.
Together, they bring a fusion of culture, creativity, and compassion into every session.
🌿 What You’ll Experience:
– Foundational quad & blade skills for all levels
– Small group sessions for personal support
– Roller derby-inspired resilience + freestyle flow
– Mindful movement rooted in body awareness
– Skating as a tool for mental clarity and emotional release
– Monthly theme nights that celebrate joy, identity, and self-expression
– A trauma-informed, body-positive, radically inclusive community
Dragon Belly Rollers is where movement becomes medicine.
Let’s roll with intention. Let’s rise together. 🛼🐉
