For those students who can already perform front and side aerials, this class is highly recommended, as we will concentrate on drills and progressions that will strengthen your technique, increase difficulty, and connect multiple skills together. We will also be exploring additional cartwheel-based skills, such as cartwheel mounters, for those students who are ready.

For those students who would like to learn an aerial, this Acro class will have a focus on drills and progressions that lead towards the beginning stages of an aerial. *Please note, taking this class will not guarantee that your dancer will be performing aerials at the end of the 5 weeks. Aerials can take years to build up to, and students will only be permitted to progress through the skills leading up to an aerial as the teacher sees that they are ready.
