ACRO

Learn the basics or work on advancing your skills in our leveled Acro classes! Acro is not the typical tumbling or gymnastics class. Our experienced acro instructors will guide the class towards increased flexibility, balance, strength, muscle control, discipline and concentration. These classes focus on fundamental acrobatic technique, teaching such skills as handstands, chin stands, elbow stands, cartwheels, back bends, walkovers, balance and contortion tricks, all each student's individual level of experience. These skills are incorporated into dance choreography throughout the year and all Acro classes perform a full piece in the end of year performance.
