Acrobatic Arts is a style of dance that combines classical techniques with acrobatic elements. While all dance is physical, this form is particularly athletic and has unique choreography due to its use of acrobatics in a dance environment. AcroDance classes will not only work to improve your child's confidence and coordination, but they also have serious strength-building properties; flexibility, strength, balancing, limbering & tumbling. AcroDance performance qualities include expressive presentation and musicality.  Simple, thoughtful, progressions take the beginner preschool level dancer from log rolls and summersaults to the advanced dancer tumbling effortlessly across the stage!
