Acro I
Placement by Instructor
Acro I is a 1.5-hour weekly class focused on building strength, flexibility, and core control through structured, developmentally appropriate progressions. This level introduces a formal strength and conditioning segment that supports acrobatic advancement and overall physical wellness. Students participate in guided drills, resistance training, and targeted stretch work designed to improve flexibility, mobility, stamina, and alignment. Equipment such as yoga blocks, resistance bands, and stretch bars are regularly used to support these goals.
Instruction follows nationally recognized teaching standards and the DECK framework (Dance, Early Childhood, and Knowledge), using safe developmental sequencing rooted in body readiness and skill prerequisites. Progressions are taught individually, allowing each student to advance at their own pace.
Acro is not gymnastics, cheerleading, or competitive tumbling. Unlike those disciplines, it focuses on weaving acrobatic elements into dance choreography in a way that enhances overall performance—emphasizing control, clarity, and musicality rather than power tumbling or apparatus-based skills.
This level introduces a variety of floor-based acro skills. Sample skills include cartwheel variations, round-offs, standing bridge kickovers, limbers, and introductory inverted balances (hand-, elbow-, and chest-supported). Partner acro is introduced to develop shared-weight coordination and spatial awareness.
Students train using professional training equipment, including inclines, barrel rollers, and floor balance beams to ensure safety, body support, and proper skill progression.
