Students commence using basic Acrobatics skills such as forward rolls, bridge, and cartwheels. Following proper progression through the grades Pre-Primary to Grade 8 students move through a complex series of tricks, tumbles, balances, and increased flexibility. Acrobatics is designed to give today’s ‘dancer’ the edge.
Please note, this is not gymnastics. Acrobatics is designed to stay in line with the physique of a dancer and not gymnast.
Throughout Acro training the leg muscles remain long, the shoulders remain slender and concentration is emphasised on being up and out to an audience.
These are the opposite to gymnastics where short, stocky muscles are developed, gaining a broad V shaped upper back and shoulders and downwards concentration/focus. A minimum of 2 classes per week from age 6 upwards is recommended.
For Ages: 4 – 18 years
