We talked to the OGs and newbies keeping the city's skating community alive
Sk8 Pop Up instructor Hvzel
If you’ve ever wondered about San Diego’s roller skating community, just step outside. You’ll find glimpses of it on the boardwalk, where skaters cruise along Mission Beach with a speaker in hand. Or at outdoor rinks like Derby United HQ in Encanto, or Sunset View Park in Chula Vista. You’ll even find them at Liberty Station and—defying the posted rules— at Balboa Park, creating a makeshift rink with any patch of concrete they can find.
The thing is, location isn’t that important when it comes to skating—it’s more about the people, the music, and the energy. In short, it has to pass the vibe check.
Rollerskates
No one knows that better than Nili Goldfarb, better known as “Isabelle Ringer,” a competitive roller derby skater and owner of the Derby United team. Almost accidentally, Ringer has created a unique place for San Diego skaters. One where pros teach classes, DJs mix house music and spin vinyl, and newbies are welcome to lace up for the first time and groove alongside “OGs.”
“There’s this old culture of how things are at the roller rink,”Ringer says.“We’re taking some of that and kind of mashing it up to become another moment.”
Ringer and Derby United, previously known as the San Diego Derby Dolls, spent most of their years training in a warehouse downtown. When prices kept climbing, Ringer went on the hunt for a new location. At the time, the Encanto venue was nothing more than an empty dirt lot tucked between construction sites and industrial complexes. But she had a vision—there was room for two outdoor rinks, more space for people to come and watch the competitions, ample parking, and the opportunity to host the occasional open skate for the community outside of the roller derby world. They broke ground in fall 2019, and by March 2020 they were putting the finishing touches on the space. Six days after their soft opening, the state’s stay-at-home order went into effect. So things had to shift.
Rollerskate – fist up
“By the time outdoor recreation reopened last summer, there were so many people that turned to roller skating and were starting from nothing,” Ringer says. “We thought, ‘Hey, we know how to teach people to skate,’ so we started offering really small group classes to teach the basics.”
The classes booked up fast, so she started hosting open sessions for people to reserve a spot to free skate, which built her a rep among regulars. She even connected with local DJs who were looking for places to play after cancellations and closings put them out of work. What was meant to be an occasional event in pre-COVID times became the lifeblood of her business and San Diego’s skating community alike.
At the same time, roller skating started trending on TikTok and Instagram. Many were quick to call it a “boom” brought on by the pandemic, much like the cycling boom that cleaned out bike shops across the country. But Ringer thinks that dismisses the long history of skate culture.
“Roller skating didn’t get invented or even reinvented in this moment,” she says.“There’s a lot of Black excellence in roller skating coming out of the rinks in Atlanta and St. Louis that has led to all these folks of every background learning these different styles. I understand some people will say, ‘I learned everything off Instagram,’ and that may be true, but those people you saw on Instagram learned those moves from someone who came before them. You may not have learned it from a person of color, but somebody did.”
While the pandemic definitely lent it momentum (and gave people more time at home to scroll through Instagram), the roller skating scene was already gaining speed, especially in San Diego. Ringer credits a couple of key factors: brands like Moxi, who were among the first to popularize brightly colored skates, and longtime skaters deeply connected to the culture who were eager to uplift and share their knowledge with newcomers.
“People were seeing these Moxi skaters, and really slick skaters like Derrick Pernell,”she says.“You start visualizing yourself in those skates, you know? You just want to be a part of that.”
Pernell, who is on active duty in the Navy and stationed in San Diego, grew up in Atlanta. He says roller skating is just a way of life there, something that everyone does growing up. He fell in love with it almost immediately, skating all the way up until he joined the military, and continues to do so between deployments.
“It really quickly became a happy place for me,” he says. “I could skate without asking anyone. I could skate without bothering anyone. I can do this and just be me. I love that aspect about it.”
Isabelle Ringer free skates outside
Pernell embraced this new wave of interest in roller skating by offering private and group classes, and teaching at Derby United. His classes book up fast, often with repeat students who started with him as total beginners. People look up to him, even try to emulate his style. But he says that everything he’s learned was influenced by the OGs of the roller rink.
“Before roller skating was blasted everywhere on social media, it was this underground thing you just had to know about. Those people were the ones who taught me what I know.”
In San Diego, Jerry Beck is one of those OGs, although when asked about it he laughs and says he has no idea how it happened. Beck was born in Pittsburgh and grew up a self-described “rink rat” before moving to San Diego and spending time at the old Sweetwater rink in National City.
What Beck finds so addictive about roller skating is the freedom that comes with it. “I love music and I love to dance. You really do get lost in that combination,” he says. “Every time I go out to skate feels like the first time.”
He’s passed his knowledge on throughout his career, teaching everyone from beginners to seasoned skaters who come from all over the country. And he says that’s what makes teaching so rewarding: Every skater is going to do things a little differently based on where they’re from.
“I can look at a skater move and know exactly where they came from,” Beck says. “An Atlanta skater, like Pernell, will move differently than a skater from California.”
Derrick Pernell shows off his moves at Derby United HQ
Pernell says Atlanta skating means high energy with a lot of rhythmic stomping in large groups, whereas Beck says California skating is smoother and slower, where skaters glide across the floor.
“Here, everyone does the Downtown. That’s a popular West Coast step,”says Beck.“But it’s done in other states, too. And it will look different in each one depending on what the style is, or who is influencing the styles in that area.” That’s part of the magic of skating, he says. In a way, each skater is like a melting pot of the moves and styles they’ve been influenced by. And when they teach or take a class from someone else, they’re continuing that long line of history.
Pernell says that’s especially true in San Diego: “It’s so refreshing here. The community and energy down here is so different.”
And it’s not going anywhere anytime soon. Now that people are taking the time to learn about the culture behind roller skating, he sees it lasting for the long haul. Isabelle Ringer says that once she can operate Derby United HQ as the roller derby facility it was intended to be, she’ll continue offering classes and open skate sessions: “There’s a lot of people who find happiness here, and I’m not going to take that away.”
Hvzel from The SK8 Pop Up teaches a class
It’s part of the community now. An outlet for San Diego skaters—whether it’s their first time lacing up or their hundredth—to move alongside one another, learn about the culture, and, as Jerry Beck puts it,“enjoy the freedom to express yourself on wheels.”
Spend an evening with Goose, explore Chula Vista’s annual Lemon Festival and feel the heat (and the beat) in Hell’s Kitchen
Films, concerts and an exorbitant amount of lemons comprise this week’s most entertaining events in San Diego. Those looking to beat the heat can find shelter and cinematic gold with The Treasure of the Sierra Madre at Digital Gym Cinema, or check out a cult classic at the Balboa Theatre’s 40th anniversary screening of Little Shop of Horrors. From South Bay to La Jolla, concertgoers can catch collaborative tours from the likes of Santana & the Doobie Brothers, Helado Negro & Reyna Tropical and Jason Aldean & Luke Bryan. This weekend also marks the return of the two-day San Diego Made Summer Market and the yearly Lemon Festival, both of which are ripe for shopping unique local vendors.

The defining quality that makes a jam band truly so is a willingness to improvise, keeping audiences, and even their most dedicated fans, waiting with bated breath for their next move. As with pioneers of the practice like the Grateful Dead, Connecticut rock group Goose treat concerts as a nightly display for their vast musical chemistry. When Goose performs this Thursday (7 p.m.) at Cal Coast Credit Union Theatre, don’t be surprised if a familiar track is extended by an extra five, ten or thirty minutes into a new cosmic space. Tickets start at $55 for this concert.
5500 Campanile Drive, College Area
Georgians Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan both began their rise to country music stardom in the 2000s, and have since become two of the genre’s revered elder statesmen. After a sold-out one-off show at the University of Georgia in April, the pair decided to take the Peach State experience nationwide with co-headlining stops in Missoula, Montana, Washington, D.C., Las Vegas and San Diego’s Petco Park. This Sunday (4 p.m.), country fans can catch the two stars, as well as a slew of up-and-coming talent, with openers Gavin Adcock, Chase Matthew, Dee Jay Silver and DJ Rock.

From celebrity pickleball tournaments to intimate dinner parties with your favorite Food Network chefs, here are all of the can’t-miss events going on Sept 30–Oct 4
Play is underrated. Somewhere along the way, someone decided it was something we should outgrow. That you A good song comes on, and they dance. A game appears, and they’re in. Someone hands them a melting ice cream cone, and somehow it’s the best part of the day.
Adults tend to need a reason. Or maybe just the right setting.
That’s part of what makes the Del Mar Wine & Food Festival feel different. Yes, the week revolves around food and wine, with celebrated chefs, winemakers, and restaurants drawing crowds from across the region. But what lingers afterward is the conversations that stretch a little longer than expected, the strangers who become dinner companions, the live music that pulls people out of their seats, and the rare chance to spend a few hours simply enjoying yourself without much of an agenda.
The Grand Tasting is the festival’s centerpiece, bringing thousands of guests together over two days for hundreds of bites and pours. But some of the week’s most memorable experiences happen on a smaller scale. In the days leading up to the main event, intimate dinners, chef collaborations, and guided tastings create opportunities for guests to interact more closely with the people behind the food and wine and with each other.
Here’s your guide to the 2026 Del Mar Wine & Food Festival happening September 30–October 4.
Start festival week the San Diego way: ocean views, Baja-inspired bites, and a drink in hand as the sun goes down. The Signature San Diego Opening Night Party at Monarch Ocean Pub sets the tone for the week ahead with a walk-around tasting experience celebrating the flavors that make this city impossible to replicate. It’s an evening of fresh coastal cuisine, bold Mexican flavors, Baja seafood, and plenty of local favorites—all served against one of Del Mar’s most iconic backdrops. Consider it your first official toast to the weekend ahead…
Wine and competition make an unexpectedly perfect pair. You can join Drew Brees and celebrity players at Barnes Tennis Center for a pickleball tournament benefiting Feeding San Diego, where the sidelines are just as exciting as the court. Grab a paddle, cheer from the sidelines, or simply enjoy a glass of wine while the action unfolds. The day blends friendly competition with an all-inclusive tasting experience.
Since year one, Del Mar Wine & Food Festival has partnered with Feeding San Diego to raise $100,000 in support of the organization’s mission to fight hunger across the region. Every serve, sip, and bite helps give back to the community that makes this festival possible.
Remember that pickleball paddle you swore you’d use? Time to put it to work.
This is essentially a passport to Spain with no airport required. Set among the lush grounds of Rancho Valencia, Rioja Uncorked celebrates one of Spain’s most iconic wine regions with an evening of exceptional pours and thoughtfully paired bites. Guests will sip their way through Rioja wines while enjoying a menu featuring everything from Hiramasa crudo and uni toast to duck rillette, birria mini tacos, Cardiff Crack tri-tip sandwiches, and a sweet finale from Karen Krasne of Extraordinary Desserts (date night plans, solved).
Justin Wine Dinner sounds simple: three chefs, one unforgettable table. But chefs Kaitlyn Weber (Estancia La Jolla), Buddha Lo (Top Chef), and Jackson Kalb (Top Chef) are taking you on a one-night-only culinary ride where three styles collide over a multi-course menu paired with exceptional pours from Justin Vineyards & Winery. Set in Estancia’s coastal estate, the evening unfolds course by course with pairings from Justin wines as each chef brings their own style to a menu focused on craft, connection, and a bit of friendly culinary overlap. It’s the kind of culinary conversation that only happens when very, very talented people cook together.

Behind every beautiful space is a thoughtful process, and ASID San Diego is helping homeowners understand the value of professional design.
A perfectly designed home rarely happens by accident. Those kitchens that feel effortless and rooms that seem to tell a story the second you walk in? They’re usually the work of someone who knows exactly what they’re doing.
It’s knowing which ideas will actually work, which materials will hold up over time, and how to turn a collection of choices into a space that feels intentional. That’s where a professional interior designer comes in.
For the American Society of Interior Designers (ASID) California San Diego Chapter, the goal is to help people see interior design as more than just the finished look. Behind every well-designed space is a process built on technical expertise. Designers are educated in everything from professional software and construction details to building codes, space planning, materials, and functionality.
“People don’t always realize how much goes on behind the scenes,” Kirsten Recce , current president of the ASID California San Diego Chapter, says. “Our designers are not just doing furniture placement and color selection and picking out new fluffy pillows. That’s not what they’re trained for.”
ASID members bring formal education, continued learning, and industry knowledge to their projects, helping create spaces that are not only beautiful, but designed to work. A paint color that changes completely depending on the lighting. A material that looks beautiful in a showroom but doesn’t make sense for everyday life. A layout that photographs well but doesn’t function for the people living there. These are the details where professional guidance can make all the difference.
Still, one of the biggest misconceptions about hiring an interior designer is that it’s reserved for massive renovations, luxury homes, or people who already know exactly what they want. The process can feel intimidating. Where do you begin? Is a designer worth the investment? What if you only need help with one room?
ASID’s answer: start with one hour.
ASID’s Spruce Up events break down one of the biggest barriers between homeowners and professional design: knowing where to begin. Held twice a year, the community program gives homeowners the chance to work directly with an ASID designer through a one-hour, $125 consultation in their own home. Whether you’re looking for advice on furniture placement, window treatments, kitchen and bath updates, remodeling ideas, vacation rentals, color selections or something else entirely, the upcoming September 2026 event offers an approachable way to get expert guidance before committing to a full project. Signups are open through Sept. 7, with consultations taking place Sept. 21 through Oct. 31. Proceeds benefit ASID San Diego’s educational and community programs. Register here!
“It’s a great opportunity for people who are in that exploratory phase,” Recce says. “Maybe they’re not sure they want to hire an interior designer yet, or they think it sounds daunting or expensive. This gives them a chance to discover what working with a designer is actually like.”
Design is personal. A good designer isn’t just creating a beautiful room; they’re helping create a space that fits the way someone lives.
“We’re a resource to all of San Diego County,” Recce says. “It doesn’t cost anything to pick up the phone and call and ask. We’ll answer.”

From getting your sweat on at hip-hop class to celebrating with a zero-proof cocktail, here are San Diego's top fitness and wellness spots
For thousands of years, the Kumeyaay who lived in this area called a mountain south of Julian Cush-pii, meaning “sharp peak.” Then, after the Civil War, Confederate sympathizers saw that same mountain and decided to rename it Stonewall Peak—after General Stonewall Jackson. The name stuck for nearly a century and a half, until Cuyamaca Rancho State Park announced earlier this year that the name will return to its original, Cush-pii. Hike to the summit for expansive views of the Coronado Islands to the west and Mexico to the south.
In 1993, Angie Bunch gathered a group of hip-hop dancers—called Culture Shock Dance Troupe—and gave them a space to practice and perform. As hip hop grew through the ’90s, so did Culture Shock. It has since become a nonprofit, a space for young and old, beginner and expert dancers. Culture Shock has also expanded to Los Angeles, Oakland, Las Vegas, Chicago, Atlanta, New York City, and Washington, D.C., as well as Ottawa and Toronto, Canada.
In 2019, Amanda Leach created the Yoga Box method, which takes high-energy flows and adds strength-building poses in heated, vibey, lava-lamp-lit studios. What started on Grand Avenue in Pacific Beach has spread to 15 locations across the county, with even more trickling into Denver, Chicago, and Brooklyn. The best part? Mindfulness newbies who can’t touch their toes and six-packed contortionists can hang in the same class. You can customize each session based on your ability and fitness level.
A gym taking over a historic beachfront pool sounds like the setup for a new season of Love Island, but Fit Mission Beach operating the nearly 100-year-old Plunge at Belmont Park is real. The independent fitness brand has spent the past several years building a loyal following through group fitness classes, community events, and a members’ social club overlooking the ocean. Upstairs, members can work remotely, meet friends, or hang out long after their workout ends. Between the Plunge, the coworking-style lounge, and a packed calendar of events, Fit has evolved into something bigger than a gym. It’s a clubhouse for San Diego’s fitness crowd.
The wellness world is finally transitioning away from HIIT workouts and cult-like spin classes, where your heart rate hits Zone 5 within minutes and stays there until cooldown. Good. At Breathe Degrees, wellness takes the form of zenned-out communal breathing sessions or vagus nerve–activating cold plunges. Breathwork is said to boost your mood in the short term and improve your heart health in the long term, and maybe that’s why everyone’s coming back for more. You can’t run into someone in Carlsbad who hasn’t dropped into at least one breathwork session, and now the studio has opened a second location in Liberty Station.
Pilates wasn’t just popular this year; it was practically a requirement for maintaining your San Diego residency. New studios seemed to appear weekly across San Diego, each promising stronger cores and better posture, but Soul Pilates and Care found a way to stand out by addressing a challenge many parents know well: finding time to exercise at all. Fitness doesn’t have to compete with parenting responsibilities. Parents can drop their kids off with trained caregivers while they head into reformer classes, eliminating one of the biggest barriers to working out. The studio has earned strong reviews for both its instruction and family-friendly approach.
The Hotel del Coronado’s sweeping $550 million restoration touched nearly every corner of the historic resort, but one of the most anticipated unveilils was the debut of its redesigned spa. The oceanfront wellness destination now features 21 treatment rooms, a relaxation lounge, a sauna, steam room, and a treatment menu inspired by the coastal environment just steps away. The redesign blends the Del’s Victorian legacy with a cleaner, more contemporary aesthetic, creating a space that feels distinctly SoCal rather than generic luxury hotel. For locals who don’t have time for a vacation, it’s the next best thing.
As non-alcoholic beverages continue their meteoric rise, Good News Bar has become one of San Diego’s most compelling arguments for a booze-free evening. The University Heights hotspot serves a menu of carefully crafted zero-proof cocktails that borrow techniques and ingredients from traditional cocktail programs (it’s not just fancy juices and soda water), minus the hangover. The space also hosts regular community events and has quickly become a gathering place for everyone from sober San Diegans to the merely sober-curious. In a nightlife industry built around alcohol sales, Good News proved there’s plenty of demand for connection without the buzz.
From concerts and festivals to theater, food, and outdoor fun, here are the San Diego events worth adding to your August calendar
August is San Diego at full volume. Summer crowds are still chasing sunshine, but the calendar belongs to locals who know this is when the city really shows off. One night you’re dancing under the stars, the next you’re watching thoroughbreds with a plate of oysters in hand, catching Broadway hits, wandering gallery exhibitions, or rallying on a downtown pickleball court. Whether you’re looking for live music, festivals, theater, food, or an excuse to spend as little time indoors as possible, these are the August events worth putting on your calendar.

Circadian Sleep Clinic Helps Reset the Body Clock
Nearly everyone experiences a sleepless night once in a while. But for those with a circadian sleep disorder, being well-rested can feel out of reach. A circadian sleep disorder occurs when a person’s internal clock doesn’t align with their desired or socially required sleep schedule. This can significantly impact quality of life, mental health and physical well-being. Scripps Circadian Sleep Disorders Clinic, launched in 2019, was the first of its kind in the state. Its specialists diagnose and treat conditions like delayed sleep phase disorder, shift work sleep disorder and non-24-hour sleep-wake disorder. Many patients have spent years—or even decade —thinking there was no hope for their sleep behavior. A solution can be life-changing. Read more about the Scripps Circadian Sleep Disorders Clinic here.
