AT THE ACADEMY...
Absolutely exclusive to Aerial Dance & Acro Academy is our Acro Department! You will not find this style of Acro taught anywhere else in the lower mainland. We have a variety of levels to accommodate absolute beginners to accomplished gymnasts looking to further their training with a new twist.
