The TJ Spot Skating Rink
In 2022, Teawanna Teal founded The TJ Spot Skating Rink, a mobile roller-skating experience that has partnered with regional municipalities, including the City of West Palm Beach, to bring fun and fitness to neighborhoods across South Florida. “I launched The TJ Spot to create a safe, joyful space where families, friends, and entire communities can come together and roll into something positive,” Teal says. “Every time I watch kids lacing up skates for the first time or see families reconnecting on the rink, I’m reminded why I started this.” The TJ Spot provides skates, staffing, and setup for each event, activating blank spaces—often in underserved neighborhoods—into skating spots. Soon, Teal hopes to plant a semi-permanent skating home on Tamarind Avenue. Follow The TJ Spot on social media to see where to lace up…..
