To Our Students and Families: Thank you for supporting us over the many years and making AcroSports an institution in San Francisco. We will continually work tirelessly to deserve it.

Dear AcroSports Community ~ We hope everyone is staying safe and healthy as we officially enter the holiday season! Here at AcroSports, we have closed our doors for most of the week so our staff can take a much-deserved break and spend time with their families. AcroSports is on the eve of our 30th Anniversary […]

It’s that time of year again! AcroSports’ Fall session is about to begin, and our Leadership Team has been planning for an expanded schedule of classes and is excited to see the gym back in full operation. Whether you’re a first-timer or a returning student, we welcome you to enjoy your training and time spent at AcroSports.

AcroSports has always been a major advocate for safety in the programs we offer to the community, and we have chosen to use this down time to make upgrades to our facility that will further support that focus. All of the renovations we've completed in the gym during this closure are real "Wow Factor" items that you will certainly notice right away upon returning to AcroSports!

From gymnastics to circus arts and parkour, AcroSports offers fun and challenging youth classes for active children aged 6 and up.

As of Monday, March 14th, AcroSports will officially become "mask optional," with neither staff nor clients required to wear masks on the premises (though it is highly encouraged!), and we will no longer be requiring proof of vaccination of adult students. 

Our popular week-long #camps engage students in challenging physical activities like #tumbling, #dancing, and #circusarts to give them a chance to build #strength, #flexibility, and mind/body #awareness.

A quick word to our AcroSports community on how to stay safe and healthy in the face of society’s pandemic fatigue, at the beginning of this new year.

The Acro Around Town Challenge is back! It’s time to get out and show your Acrobatic skills around your town.

SF City Mandate: Beginning Monday, August 20 all ADULT students, AND adults participating with children in Tiny Tots classes and Toddler Play Group, must show proof of COVID vaccination in order to participate in class. This does NOT apply to adults merely observing children in classes and birthday parties.

Dorrie Huntington, AcroSports Executive Director, provides important updates regarding Covid 19 protocol.

We’re thrilled to reintroduce our wildly popular Party program for kids ages 5+! Bookings are available NOW for Saturday parties.

AcroSports families will be no doubt pleased to learn that we’ll have both Youth and PreK classes back up and running in the Fall. Our Fall 2021 class session will run Tuesday, September 7th through Sunday, December 19th.

We are very excited to announce the creation of a new embellishment for our beloved gym. This new addition is a handwoven dynamic textile space created in the style of a classic Treenet.

Despite being closed for most programming over the past year, AcroSports has not been sitting idle! Much effort has gone into the preparations necessary to safely reinstitute group classes and camps, which we will implement in a phased and cautious manner in order to ensure maximum COVID safety.

While AcroSports is currently still closed for youth programming, we are excitedly gearing up to provide our popular day camps this coming summer!

The City of San Francisco has authorized the reopening of indoor fitness facilities as of this week, and a number of people have contacted us to see if AcroSports will be among those resuming programming.

AcroSports has always been a major advocate for safety in the programs we offer to the community, and we have chosen to use this down time to make upgrades to our facility that will further support that focus. All of the renovations we've completed in the gym during this closure are real "Wow Factor" items that you will certainly notice right away upon returning to AcroSports!

I hope all our Acro family and friends are doing as well as can be expected during this wildly unpredictable time! Here at AcroSports, we are continually wondering how it can be that Friday, March 13th - the day we officially closed programming - simultaneously seems like only yesterday, and also a vast eternity ago.
