Acro
A creative fusion of dance and gymnastics
Acro is a fusion of classical dance technique and acrobatic or gymnastic elements, blended in a dance context. Our acro teachers are certified by Acro Arts and focus on the five pillars of acrobatic arts in their classes: flexibility, strength, balancing, limbering, and tumbling.
