Acro Dance is a combination of gymnastics, acrobatics and dance. It is high energy and a ton of fun!
This one day course is being offered at DanSci Dance Studio in Exeter for children from 5 years upwards.
As the only registered Acrobatic Arts studio in the city these classes are hugely popular. Due to the nature of the sessions we must limit numbers so booking in advance is essential.
The children will learn how to cartwheel, bend back, handstand and backflip. Partner lifts and tricks are also taught as well as balancing techniques. During this course students will spend a lot of time on stretching and conditioning in order to gain the flexibility and strength required for the tricks. All these elements will also develop and support their other dance styles.
Acro Dance, One Day Boost: 26th July 2016 10 am-4 pm
The course follows the Acrobatics Arts Syllabus developed in Canada and will be led by a fully qualified teacher. We have become increasingly aware that the kids are wanting to, and even attempting to copy some of the ‘tricks’ seen on TV programmes like ‘the Next Step ‘ and ‘Dance Moms’ However, without proper training, correct technique and adequate instruction we are concerned for their safety and welfare. Young bodies are fragile and incorrect execution can lead to serious long term injuries. We are also passionate about ensuring children learn the correct ways to stretch and strengthen. Improper stretching can lead to life-long problems which is why we currently discourage students stretching before classes or unsupervised at home.
