Acro Schedule for 2026-2027 Season
Acro classes are only held on Tuesday Evenings.
5:30-6:15 Performance Class - ages 9 and under
6:15-7:00 Skills Class - all ages
7:00-7:45 Performance Class - ages 10 and up
Students may enroll in a performance class and the skills class at a discount.
Those enrolled only in Skills will not perform in the recital.
Performance classes are for those students who seriously wish to learn a routine for the recital. Attendance in a performance class is mandatory. If a student misses 3 classes, she can stay in the class to work on skills, but will not be able to perform in the recital. Acro classes require repetition to build strength to execute the skills appropriately. Attendance is also very important for safety reasons.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
