Acro 3 is for advanced tumblers and dancers that have clean cartwheels, handstands, and walkovers. This class combines tumbling skills with the beauty and grace of dance at an advanced level. The class blends of dance techniques, tumbling skills/variations, and partner tricks. The class will build on prior learned acro skills, as well as learning how to seamlessly transition in and out of connecting tumbling with dance skills. Acro elements also consist of partnering skills, floor-work, and skill variations. By the end of the year most student will have accomplished learning ariels, backhand springs, advanced balancing skills, and walkover variations.
Students must complete Acro 2, be currently enrolled in a ballet class, and be able to execute walkovers and aerials or back handsprings with no assistance.
The Acrobatic Arts curriculum uses a breakdown of progressions to ensure students are executing skills in a way that is safe and builds strength for more advanced movement. Students should anticipate staying at least two years in each Acro class so they can confidently master the skills required to move up.
