Acrobatic Gymnastics Team
Acrobatic gymnastics combines the beauty of dance with the strength and agility of acrobatics. Routines are choreographed to music and consist of dance, tumbling, and partner skills. At the elite level, each pair or group performs a balance, dynamic and combined routine. Pyramids and partner holds characterize the balance routine, while synchronized tumbling and intricate flight elements define the dynamic exercise. An acrobatic gymnastics pair consists of a base and a top. A women's group is comprised of three athletes - a base, middle and top partner – while a men's group has four athletes, a base, two middle partners and one top partner.
Unlike other gymnastics, Acro is a partner sport; you must have trust in your partners. They depend on each other and need each other for practice and performances though the entire season. Selection process to the competitive team is through tryouts. The team practices all year and competes from March to the end of July.
Our acro team has competed at State and Region 7 Championships since 2010 and received a 1st place Level 5 Team Award at regionals in 2012. They competed at their first National Championships in Detroit, Michigan in 2012 receiving three silver medals and one bronze medal and a 3rd place Level 5 Team Award. In 2013 Nationals was in Louisville, Kentucky and the team received two bronze medals and a 5th place medal.
