Acro With Lots of Tumbling

A Class for Kids Who Love to Be Upside Down

At Florida Dance Gym, acro training includes a strong tumbling component. That makes these classes a natural fit for dancers who are excited by rolls, bridges, cartwheel-style movement, flexibility, balance, and progressing toward more advanced tumbling skills over time.

Our current studio offerings include Acro & Lyrical combinations, and the live class calendar is the best place to see which acro and tumbling options are available for your dancer's age and schedule.

What Acro Builds

More Than Just Tumbling

Tumbling is a big part of the fun, while acro training also develops the physical control dancers need to use those skills safely and confidently in movement.

01

Tumbling Skills

Acro classes give dancers regular opportunities to work on tumbling progressions and build confidence with skills appropriate to their level.

02

Strength & Flexibility

Strong acro technique depends on body control. Classes help dancers develop the strength, flexibility, balance, and coordination that support tumbling progress.

03

Dance + Acro Connection

Because Florida Dance Gym is both a dance and acrobatics studio, dancers can build acro skills in an environment that also understands musicality, performance, and movement quality.

Supportive Skill Building

Progress Without Getting Lost in the Crowd

Florida Dance Gym is intentionally small. That gives instructors more opportunity to see how each dancer is moving, offer corrections, celebrate progress, and help kids work toward the next step at an appropriate pace.

Owner and director Natasha Adams brings a background that includes gymnastics and acro, along with years of dance performance, choreography, and coaching. Her teaching experience includes acro and tumbling instruction for young athletes.
