Acro Intro
Introducing your child to acrobatics at an early age will not only prepare them to excel in many other sports, as well as acrobatics, but it also encourages the importance of flexibility and maintaining a healthy body into their adult years. What makes acrobatics unique, is that it is not only athletic, but it is also performance based.
