Intermediate Acro

By Danceforce Performing Arts Academy

Our Intermediate Acro class is designed for children aged approximately 9-12yrs, however, placement is also ability-based, so some younger or older students may be better suited to this level. In this class, students continue developing their acro technique whilst building strength, flexibility and conditioning. Dancers work on progressing skills such as balances, limbers, walkovers, handstands, cartwheels and partner work, whilst improving control, coordination and confidence. Classes are fun, challenging and supportive, with students encouraged to progress safely at their own pace under the guidance of our experienced and qualified teaching team. Children are assessed regularly to ensure they are in the most suitable class for their ability and progression.
