Acro for Dancers

Acro (Dance-Based Acrobatics)

Acro is different from tumbling.
While tumbling focuses on power skills, Acro blends flexibility, control, strength, and technique with dance movement so dancers can safely incorporate tricks into choreography.

Our Acro classes focus on:

• Flexibility & extension

• Core & back strength

• Balance & controlled transitions

• Handstands & variations

• Front & back walkovers

• Aerial progressions

• Dance-integrated acro skills (Valdez, side aerials, illusions, etc.)

Perfect for competitive dancers wanting to elevate their technique and performance.
