About Level 3
This class is for advanced beginner acro dancers above the age of 7 and bridges the gap between beginner and intermediate levels. The students progress through the set list of skills throughout the year.
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 back walkovers, however, some will be doing back bend kick overs, some full walkovers and some doing walkover variations.
Classes also incorporate across-the-floor combinations that combine dance elements with the acrobatic skills learnt in class.
GYM TRAINING DAYS:
Students in Acro Classes from Level 3 up have the option of attending additional training days once per term. These sessions will be held at a local gymnastics club to use their floors, mats and equipment to assist in the development of tumbling skills.
Prerequisites for Level 3
Students joining Level 3 should be able to confidently perform a strong front walkover finishing with the leg extended, and back walkover, starting with the leg extended. Having these skills will allow them to transition into learning Level 3 skills in a strong and safe way. Please get in touch in you're unsure which level will be suitable for your child and we will be very happy to assist you!
