level 1 - beginner
recommended age: 5 - 6 years old

This class is for young beginning acro dancers whose bodies are still growing and developing. Therefore students are only taught skills their bodies are physically ready for and capable of. 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 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.
