Acro Dance 101

AcroDance is a beautiful fusion of the artistic motion of dance and the athleticism of acrobatics.

It is not the same as gymnastics as it does not include the various apparatus such as balance beams and uneven bars used in gymnastics training. Instead, acrobatics is taught to be performed in conjunction with multiple dance techniques on a hard, flat surface.

Acrobatic skills include flexibility, strength, limbering, balancing, contortion and tumbling. Think of acrobatics as the “dance cousin” of gymnastics.

Dansation follows the Canadian Acrobatic Arts method, a progression-based syllabus aimed at training participants in a safe and technically correct way.

Acrobatic performances are often evident in the shows by Cirque du Soleil. With endorsements from over 1000 dance teachers worldwide, physiotherapists, Cirque Du Soleil acrobats, etc.

Acrobatic Arts is universally recognised as one of the best programs for AcroDance.
