ACRO AT HOME w/ ERIN

For the first couple years of Acro, there are TONS of skills to do within an 8x12ft space inside the home. These include (but not limited to): handstands, backbends, kickovers, various rolls, strength & flexibility. For higher levels we can work on standing tumbling (tucks/BHS’s/floor skills).

For gymnasts, I’ve been thoroughly impressed with the home gym’s now days. Many homes have invested in a good bar, a solid beam, and a mat/airtrack for floor.

THIS IS SUPPLEMENTAL to training at a gym, as I simply cannot replace a cheerleading gym with a spring floor and tumble track at home. I recommend training AT LEAST 3-5 days a week for serious athletes, outside of this lesson. (This includes strength building, flexibiltiy, handstand conditioning, cardio, etc).

Short answer – it’s not ideal, however it’s absolutely better than nothing! For kids working tucks, layouts & beyond, a trampoline and/or 20ft+ airtrack is ideal. We can work on shaping, drills and concepts of tumbling that they can then use at a physical gym.

YES, BUT IT TRULY DEPENDS ON THE LEVELS OF EACH KID. When I started this, I said yes a lot to shared privates, but over the last 2 years I’ve seen these lesson most effective 1-on-1.

Acro at Home is ran throughout the year during 3 “semesters” the school calendar. Spring, Summer & Fall. I work about 9 months of the year, similar to a teacher and mirror the local school calendars.

DURING THE SCHOOL YEAR: Monday-Thursday there is a set schedule for 3 houses a night. Families commit to the 12 weeks (for Fall) or 14 weeks (for spring), with the same schedule each week.

Venmo or Zelle

It really depends on the level of skills.

Absolutely. Before leaving each day I wipe down the mats using tea-tree based products, and any carpeted equipment is vacuumed. Between houses though, occasionally you may find pet hair from the previous house. I HIGHLY ENCOURAGE families to vacuum the floor before arrival (just don’t want to pass on pethair that someone may be allergic to!).

Yes and no.
