Acro (age 11+)

Acro dance is a fun, exciting style based on five distinct principles: flexibility, strength, balance, limbering, and tumbling. Acro dance classes combine these principles to teach students elements of contortion, rhythmic gymnastics, and tumbling. They contain a full warm-up of strength-based progressions, development of body positions, balance skills, partner work, and tumbling skills.

Portions of acro classes involve hands-on spotting or physical manipulation of the dancer’s body to ensure safe progression through a skill. CAS acro instructors are certified in acro instruction to ensure spotting is done safely.
