About Level 1
This class is designed for young beginner acro dancers as they start building strength, coordination and confidence. Students learn skills that support healthy development, progressing through a set list of foundations at a pace that suits their growing bodies.
Classes are split into groups, and each group of students work in ‘trick families’, enabling them to work on different levels of a skill so that all students are working at a level appropriate for them. For example, all students may be working on handstands, however, some will be doing these as donkey kicks, some as L handstands, some backwards or frontwards on the wall or the more advanced students will be working centre floor. Classes incorporate fun games and acro-related obstacle courses and challenges.
