Hey teachers! I just recorded a brand new training for you - especially if you're newer to Acro, but honestly there's something in here even if you've been teaching a couple of years. These are the FIVE BIGGEST questions I get asked over and over. So let's get into it. 💥 ✅ Run the same warmup every class, no exceptions Not a generic stretch-and-pushups warmup — a 20-30 minute technique, strength, and flexibility warmup built around the tricks coming up in the level. Lots of repetition. When the warmup is mastered, the tricks come fast. ✅ Managing mixed levels in the same class Same warmup framework for everyone, but the drills scale to where each student actually is. 📌 Progress charts are huge here too - they tell students exactly what they're working on and what's next, so nobody feels rushed or held back. ✅ How to actually teach Aerials 📌 My cue: step OUT, chest UP. Not "drop the chest" - that works for your naturally lean, talented kids, but for the other 80% of your class it collapses the hips and kills the rotation. Chest up = correct timing, more height, lighter landing. Works for every body type. ✅ Why choreography looks messy (it's not flexibility!) Nine times out of ten it's bent legs upside down. Straight legs are trained, not gifted. Dynamic split stretches and handstand-against-the-wall drills fix this in weeks, not years. ✅ Progress charts and stickers Put your whole syllabus on a chart. Sparkly stickers. Kids can see exactly where they are and where they're going, and it solves the "my kid wants to skip basics" conversation with parents too. I recorded the full training for you below — grab a coffee and give it a watch! ☕ Let me know which of these five you're going to work on first!

It's the first week of September. Picture two Tuesday nights. 🌙 Registration for Teacher's Certification closes this Friday at 5:00 PM MDT, so let me stop talking about systems and just show you what one actually changes. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ 😮‍💨 THE FIRST ONE: You've got acro tomorrow, mixed levels, and you're on the couch with your laptop open trying to remember what you did last year. Scrolling. Looking for something that looks about right. You'll figure it out, you always do. But you'll walk in tomorrow with that same low hum (stress) you've had for years... the one that says "I hope this is enough"... ______________________________________________________________________________________________ ✨ THE SECOND ONE: You've got acro tomorrow too. Tomorrow's plan has been ready since August, because it's month one of your ADTA Teacher's Certification and you read ahead and have a plan to follow directly in class! ✅ You know what you're teaching. ✅ You know why it comes before the next thing. ✅ You know how to spot every piece of it. And if something goes sideways tomorrow, you're bringing it to your coaching call! (support, woo hoo! 🙌) You're not guessing anymore. You're running an actual program and SYSTEM! ______________________________________________________________________________________________ That's the whole difference. It was never talent, or years in, or how athletic you are. It's a system, and people beside you. 💛 _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 📅 Registration for ADTA Teacher's Certification inside The Acro Circle closes Friday at 5:00 PM MDT. We all meet on the welcome call this Monday the 10th, and your first Junior class with your coach is the next day, Tuesday the 11th. And here's the part I want you to actually hear. Join Friday, and you're on the welcome call Monday, in your first class Tuesday, and you're not billed until the 14th.
