From artistic gymnastics to aerial arts, breakdancing and parkour, AcroSports offers fun and challenging youth classes for active children aged 6 and up.
Based in progressive curricula, AcroSports programs help your child develop a positive relationship with physical activity through personal accomplishment and cooperative group activity.
Highly-skilled and athletic coaches tailor their classes to best meet the needs of every individual student. Their ability to implement sound curriculum while always incorporating safety allows us to send students home with a heightened sense of self-esteem and achievement.
Students new to AcroSports must enroll in entry-level classes. If your student has previous experience and is beyond a beginning level, please contact our office to discuss your options. Once enrolled, student evaluations occur during class so students can demonstrate their progress, and to ensure proper placement for the following session.

Gymnastics
Youth Gymnastics
Ages 6 to 18
Gymnastics requires an incredible amount of physical and mental strength, power, and flexibility. Each individual class meeting is structured so that gymnasts learn and work on skills throughout the practice on each apparatus, while incorporating conditioning and other drills to increase strength and flexibility. Gymnastics creates a core sense of body movement awareness, and is the perfect activity to set children up for lifelong success in all types of sports and other physical disciplines.
Higher level students (Level 2+) are highly encouraged to take more than one class per week, in order to ensure the greatest degree of student safety. The execution of more difficult gymnastic skills requires sufficient flexibility, strength, and the consistency afforded by repetition in order to best avoid potential injuries.
Students in this program receive progressive training on all events, which for “Girls’” gymnastics includes vault, bars, beam and floor exercise.
*** Please note that all of our gymnastics classes are co-ed and open to ALL age and skill-level-appropriate students. The difference between Girls’ and Boys’ Gymnastics refers to the apparatuses used in class, which are determined by the current international competitive structure of the discipline.

Tumbling
Youth Tumbling
Ages 6 to 16
Tumbling combines the floor skills of Girls’/Boys’ artistic gymnastics with the power of the trampoline to help students develop acrobatic skills put together in a series (e.g., round off to back handspring, multiple back handsprings or back salto). Students receive training on the main gym floor, tumble strip, and tumble track, including use of our landing pit (the only one in SF!). Students should also expect classes to include regular conditioning and physical drills that will safely support their continued Tumbling development.

**Please note: for all aerial classes, tight clothing is required on the legs (such as leggings or tights) as well as torso (leotards or close-fitting shirts). No jewelry is allowed and long hair must be tied up.

Students learn basic jumps, drops, and saltos on the trampoline, while incorporating drills & conditioning to improve strength and flexibility throughout the practice. AcroSports has both a competition-grade, hot bed trampoline, AND a 40-foot long tumble track that feed into a landing pit (the only one in SF!); students will utilize all three as well as variety of our other unique apparatus.
Urban Arts
Youth Breaking
Ages 8+
Break dancing is largely improvisational, made up of variations of “standard” moves or steps, including freezes, powermoves, downrock, and toprock. The emphasis is on energy, movement, and creativity.
Youth Parkour
Ages 6+
Parkour, also known as free running, is the sport of using the body for uninterrupted, efficient forward motion over, under, around, and through the environment. The goal is to adapt one’s movement to any given obstacle through proper landing techniques, running, jumping, climbing on, over, and around obstacles, as well as safe spotting and training. Students will learn how to safely perform basic parkour in our facility through the use of mats, specially designed parkour structures, proper coaching, and strength building, so that students can confidently take their parkour skills outside on their own.
