Why take Dance Acro?

Acrobatic Dance, or “Acro” as it is commonly known, is about creating a beautiful fusion between classic dance technique and the precision and athleticism of acrobatic elements. Acro is about train students how to seamlessly blending acrobatic movements like walkovers, tumbles and aerials into dance routines. To get the full benefit of Acro, students should attend a dance technique class such as Modern/Jazz or Contemporary alongside their Acro class.
