Roller Skate Detroit on 'Live in the D'

Appeared on WDIV’s Live in the D as a 2024 Hatch Detroit finalist, highlighting the cultural and economic impact of adult-focused skating experiences in Detroit.

In May 2024, Sarovyn’s founder was featured on Live in the D, the daytime program of WDIV-TV.

The segment aired during the 2024 Hatch Detroit competition, where Roller Skate Detroit was named a finalist.

The conversation centered on more than skating.

It addressed adult movement. Emotional safety. Cultural preservation. The deliberate creation of spaces where grown people can return to joy without chaos.

Television did not create the work.
It documented it.

This appearance marked a visible moment in Sarovyn’s evolution from grassroots training sessions to a recognized cultural force within Detroit’s small business landscape.

Recognition is not the objective.
It is the result of sustained standards.
