Hounds Academy brings elite skateboarding development to various locations across Australia.

Our signature three-day camps offer a firsthand professional experience through structured groups and expert-led daily lesson plans.

We don’t just coach for the weekend, we provide every participant with the documentation and tools they need to master their progression independently.

We’ve consulted with elite coaches across the sporting world to redefine the landscape of Australian skateboarding coaching.

Hounds Academy offers a unique professional development stream where local coaches can engage with our three day curriculum, refine their methods, and access specialised tools.

Our goal is to empower the existing coaching community with the same high-performance standards used at the highest levels of professional sport.

Skateboarding deserves better.

While it is a fundamentally modern sport, its coaching standards have lagged behind for too long.

This is not at the fault of the current coaches, moreso the environment of Australia and networks available for development.

At Hounds Academy, we believe in a higher standard of development.

Our mission is to bridge that gap, providing elite, structured coaching to skateboarders nationwide, and empowering the local coaches who serve as the lifeblood of their communities.

We aren't just teaching tricks, we’re professionalising the culture.

Our motto, 'Skate Fast,' is synonymous with confidence.

We believe that to skate fast is to skate with conviction.

Our role as coaches is to instil that fundamental confidence in every athlete, providing them with the technical foundation and mental resilience to thrive, both on the board and beyond.

Our Motto ‘skate with purpose’ is a backbone of our model.

No one has a coach every time they skate, so we aim to provide the tools for skateboarders to ‘self learn’ and be able to progress and think creatively on their own.

By providing the tools for progression, we can leave and the skateboarder can skate with purpose long after we finish.

At Hounds Academy, our mentors are hand-selected for more than just their ability on a board.

Every Hounds coach is a vetted professional, maintaining current First Aid & CPR certification alongside years of proven industry experience.

Our faculty brings a multidisciplinary edge to the park, with specialists holding degrees and backgrounds in Sports Psychology, Youth Work, and Exercise Science.

We don't just provide supervision; we provide specialized mentorship.
