Welcome to Acro Dance School — the home for Acro Dance educators worldwide. This is a community-first space created for teachers who care deeply about their craft, about teaching with integrity, and about growing together.

This is not just a place to access programs. It's a place to belong — and to grow. 🌍 What you’ll find here: • A global community of Acro Dance teachers • Conversations around teaching, safety, structure, and student progress • A space to ask real questions and share real experiences • Resources, programs, and courses all in one place 🤍 How this community supports your growth: This community thrives on participation. Here, you don’t have to figure things out on your own. Ask questions. Share what’s working in your classes. Celebrate wins. Work through challenges together. Learn from educators who value foundations, safety, and long-term progress.

📣 The 30-Day Aerials Intensive starts Thursday. Who’s in?
You asked, so we’re doing it. 💥 When I posted about aerials in here a while back, a lot of you put your hands up, and I’ve had messages ever since asking when it’s happening. The last time we did an aerials challenge together was back in 2021. It’s time. The 30-Day Aerials Intensive starts this Thursday, October 22. 💥🔥🤩 For 30 days, we’re working through the ADTA 4-Step System for teaching side aerials together, one step at a time. Here’s how it works: → A new lesson drops every Thursday. → You learn the step, then teach it in your own class that week. → You come back and tell us how it went: what worked, what didn’t, and what you saw. → You post your questions and student videos, so we all learn from what’s happening in real classes. Each lesson comes with clear instructions on how to run it in class, so you’ll know exactly what to do when you walk in. One thing up front: your students won’t have aerials in 30 days, and that’s not the goal. The goal is that you finish knowing exactly what to teach, in what order, and how to spot what’s going wrong. That’s what gets them there. More details are coming over the next few days. For now, I just want to know who’s in?! 💪🤓🤸‍♀️ 👇 Comment “I’m in” below, and tell me what's your biggest challenge or frustration with your aerials right now? See you Thursday! Miss Melissa

Before The Aerials Challenge on Thursday: Your students need THIS first 👇
Okay, I love this!! 💥 So many of you said “I’m in,” and I’ve been reading every comment about your aerial frustrations. We’re going to get into all of it. Lesson 1 drops this Thursday, October 22. But before we start the 4-Step System, there’s one thing your students need to have: a solid Open Cartwheel. This is the foundation the whole system is built on. If the Open Cartwheel isn’t there, the aerial won’t be either. So here's a pre-req before Thursday; you need to know what an Open Cartwheel is - the Open Cartwheel is the proper landing for an Aerial - bonus points if you have class before then and can practice the Open Cartwheel early. This is a pre-requisite. Here's ✅ Watch the video below. I break down exactly what a correct Open Cartwheel looks like. ✅ Check it in class this week (if you can). Who has it? Who’s close? Who needs more time? That way you’ll know exactly who’s ready to start Step 1 when the lesson goes up. 👇 And tell me in the POLL below - "Where Are You Starting From? Lessons are pre-recorded, so you can watch whenever it works for you :) See you Thursday! Miss Melissa

Curious to see how everyone divides up their training classes? Does level 1 only do x y z skills for example. Looking to change my class formats and just need some inspiration! Thank you!
