All participants will have the opportunity to take IDTA Examinations in Feb Half Term 2024 and be a part of our annual Showtime (July 2024)

Acro Gymnastics, or acro as it is commonly referred to by dancers and dance professionals, is the beautiful fusion of classic dance technique and the precision and athleticism of acrobatic elements. Often defined by unique choreography, acro dancers seamlessly blend musicality, emotional expression, line and extension with acrobatic movements in a dance context.

Acro is an especially challenging style for dancers to master as training in both dance and acrobatic elements is required. Acro technique includes balancing, limbering, tumbling and partnering, based in flexibility, contortion and strength.

Dancers will all have their own progress card which we will work through and 'tick' off when skills are mastered in classes. Once a dancer has completed their skills card for a level they will then progress on to the next level.

We have all the best equipment from Mats, Acro Pad, Air tracks, Wedge Mats, Bands, Blocks, Stacks to help develop the dancers confidence, technique and skills.
