EDMONTON ACROBATIC GYMNASTICS
Edmonton Acrobatic Gymnastics was the first Acrobatic Gymnastics Club to offer sports acrobatics programs in Northern Alberta. Our coaches have a unique style focusing on the athlete and love of the sport to inspire athletes to greatness. We are a family operated club with the coaching team made of primarily of parents just like you. Our role as club operators also gives us a unique perspective and flexibility in programming not available in most environments.
WHAT IS ACROBATIC GYMNASTICS?
Acrobatic gymnastics (previously called sport acrobatics) is a competitive gymnastic discipline where partnerships of gymnasts work together and perform figures consisting of acrobatic moves, dance and tumbling, set to music. There are three types of routines; a ‘balance’ routine where the focus is on strength, poise and flexibility; a ‘dynamic’ routine which includes throws, somersaults and catches, and (at FIG level 6 and above) a ‘combined’ routine which includes elements from both balance and dynamic.
