What we’re about
LeedsAcro combines Partner Acrobatics, Acro Yoga and Acro Balance to create fun events for connecting you with others interested in this circus inspired practice.
"Acro" is a physical movement practice which combines elements of dance, yoga, acrobatics and bodyweight training in creative and playful ways.
This group will share upcoming classes and open training events to help you develop the skills and strength required for various areas of acro. With a focus on teamwork, LeedsAcro aims to build confidence, trust and communication through partnered movement amongst friends and strangers. Come along to any of our events solo or with friends and learn how to safely spot, base, and fly!
