What Is Acrobatics?

Acrobatics is a powerful blend of movement, control and strength. It teaches students to master their bodies through:

  • Balancing and limbering (bridges, handstands, walkovers)
  • Tumbling and aerial work (cartwheels, handsprings, flips)
  • Partnering and lifts
  • Contortion and active flexibility
  • Strength and conditioning for safe progression

Unlike traditional dance, acro places a strong focus on gymnastic-style movement, body awareness, and technical precision — helping students grow not only in skill, but also in confidence, discipline and resilience.
