Acrobatics

Acrobatics is floor/mat tumbling. This genre of dance has a focus on balance, agility, and motor coordination. Students have a warm up that builds body strength and flexibility. Students practice various acrobatic “tricks:” backbends, handstands, cartwheels, limbers, front and back walkovers, etc. Students work to their various abilities and strengths. These “tricks” are combined with appropriate dance movements for our recital performance.
