Acro Classes
Wednesdays August 4, 11, 18
Beginner Level Class: $20/class 5:35-6:35 PM
The beginner level class for
ages 5 and up introduces basic Acro steps that will
later be used as the building blocks toward more
advanced moves in the higher level classes. Students
will practice core strengthening and flexibility
activities that are essential for performing Acro stunts
within their dances. In this level, students will learn
the basic movements for chin stands, elbow stands,
handstands, bridges, front and back rolls, and
cartwheels. Any Acro tricks that are put into their
dance will be worked on in this class.
Intermediate Level Classes: $20/class 4:30-5:30 PM and 6:20-7:20 PM
This intermediate level class builds upon the skills learned in
the beginner level. Core strengthening and flexibility training will
continue at a more difficult level. Now that the
students have mastered basic Acro movements, they will
do them with a more advanced variation. Chin, elbow, and
handstands will be held in balance, bridges turn into
front and back walkovers, forward rolls become diving
rolls, and cartwheels are done with one hand, or done
while running. Any Acro tricks that are put into their
dance will be worked on in this class.
Advanced Level Class: $30/class 4:40-6:10 PM
This advanced Acro class is available for students who have
mastered all previous skills. In this class, students
will further advance their Acro skills by adapting
walkovers into diving walkovers or front aerials, and
cartwheels will progress into side aerials. Chin, elbow,
and handstand balances will be perfected and students
will work on transitions between these steps. Front and
back handsprings will be introduced. Any acro tricks
that are put into their dance will be worked on in this
class.
