Sacred Lessons in Motion: Skating, Identity & Belonging with Steve Corona

In this episode of Sacred Lessons, host Mike de la Rocha sits down with Steve Corona, Chicano skater, storyteller, and community voice whose skating blends culture, pride, and healing. From his viral “Pati-Charro” video at Mariachi Plaza to managing a skate shop in Lincoln Heights, Steve has become a cultural bridge between skateboarding and Chicano identity. Together, they explore how skating can be more than sport, it can be sanctuary, therapy, and a way to reclaim culture on your own terms. With honesty and humility, Steve reminds us that falling isn’t failure, it’s part of the process, both on the board and in life. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
