Acrobatic Classes and Workshops for Kids

Whether it’s walking on the tightrope or juggling, kids with an adventurous spirit can now develop circus skills at their local gym. Kids Circus Perth offers classes through the week and workshops in school holidays.

Weekly acrobatic classes perth are a fun, energetic and highly demanding sport that incorporates both ground and aerial stunts. Students must memorise complex routines and build strength, flexibility and balance.

Acrobatics

Acrobatics is a gymnastic-based dance that strengthens the body, helps with balance and flexibility. It also builds self-confidence and motor coordination. It’s often combined with other forms of creative movement, such as dance or cheerleading.

Acrobatic traditions are found in many cultures, including China, Egypt and Greece. Some acrobatic skills are rooted in martial arts, while others are used in performance art and circus acts. It was not until the late 19th century that acrobatics became a competitive sport, with the invention of the flying trapeze and Charles Blondin’s crossing of Niagara Falls on a tightrope.

The basics of acrobatics can be learned by anyone, ranging from beginner to advanced levels. These can include forward and backward rolls, cartwheels, limbers and beginner balances. The more advanced students learn partner lifts and stunts.

Aerials

Infinity Aerial Academy is showing the Morley neighbourhood that aerial arts are harder than it looks. They offer a range of aerial classes including silks, fusion, yoga, conditioning and all-rounders. Their instructors are all aerial artists, acrobats and allround dead-set legends. Their classes are fun and challenging, perfect for those who want to tone and sculpt while having the time of their life.

FlyGym Aerial Fitness offers a variety of classes to suit every skill level, age and body type. These classes combine traditional strength, endurance and power training with fluidity, stability, release and flexibility.

Aerials classes are a great way to build upper body and core strength while learning exciting tricks on trapeze, hoop, silks (aka lyra) and rope. These skills look stunning and appear effortless when you’ve conditioned your body properly.

Juggling

Juggling is a skill that requires tremendous dexterity. The basic technique involves throwing and catching objects in the air without them touching the ground. This includes toss juggling, where the objects are thrown straight up in the air, and bounce juggling, in which the object bounces off the ground before being tossed.

It has also been proven that juggling can help reduce stress and depression. The act of juggling increases blood flow, strengthens the brain’s cognitive pathways and improves concentration. It has even been linked to the prevention of Alzheimer’s disease.

Acro Kids offers fun, energetic, non-competitive recreational gymnastics and parkour classes for babies to teens. Students learn acrobatic classes skills like handstands, cartwheels and flips in a safe and supportive environment. The program also teaches juggling, stilt walking and unicycle.

Unicycle

A unicycle is a single-wheel vehicle that requires balance and strength in ways that riding a bicycle does not. The rider can learn several tricks once basic riding is mastered. These include idle riding, turning (putting the arm of the direction they want to go behind them and the other in front of them), and jumping.

Unicycles come in a variety of sizes and are shaped differently. Some are rounded and symmetrical, while others are straight and padded. They are typically geared with one wheel and can be ridden in forward, backward, and even on one foot.

Beginners can learn to ride by standing beside a support and rocking back and forth until the pedals are about horizontal. They can then hop on with their dominant foot, and push down with the other.

Stiltwalking

Stilt walking is a fun and challenging way to exercise your body. It also helps build balance and coordination. However, you need to be very patient when learning this skill. Practice regularly and you’ll be amazed at the results!

Stilt walkers perform in parades, events, and street shows. They are usually dressed in costumes and perform dance routines or walk on stilts while turning. They can also sing or vogu. They may also play drums and cymbals.

When practicing on stilts, find an objective to reach and work towards it. Then, move on to more difficult terrains. For example, start on pavement and then progress to stairs that have railings or walls next to them. This will give you something to steady yourself against and prevent the tendency to turn without thinking.

Yes yes I need to finish my research, write my thesis, attend my courses but what if, hear me out, I spent every waking moment writing a DND campaign set in Gotham City with a fully stat-ed out batfamily ??

Did anyone consider this might be a better use of my time ??

I would like to state for the record that Circus class is really fucking hard, the trapeze fucks up your hands, the aerial silk is wobbly, they both demand so much arm and abdomen strength (which I'm a lil potato, so I don't have)

BUT

You get up to some fun shit like this

It's really quite fun if you ignore all the body pain (you have no idea how dizzy I was after getting down from this)

@dichotomy.games came out with their homebrew full caster class, the Harlequin, and I fell IN LOVE with the character made to be the class representative and couldn't get them having a partner out of my head. So I made them one! Then I made the mistake of asking if the character has a name...and after naming them Whimsy (The Harlequin) and Wonder(their partner) I continued to make art of the duo and @dichotomy.games liked them so much they got their own stats!

Thanks again @dichotomy.games for making homebrew that is so inspiring!

Hey Vil, extremely important question, how do you feel about the art of Clowning?

Clowns are hard-working entertainers just like any other, but I don't have any personal thoughts about them. While having your own unique makeup style is interesting, whenever I go to a circus, my eyes tend to land on the acrobats.

i worked out yesterday and went swimming today and now my arms are dead.

Rhythmic gymnastics is so amazing!

So I watched the qualifications yesterday and am watching the finals now and I did not expect all of the routines turned up to 12/10! (And at least some of the looks are new, right? Or am I just not remembering correctly?)

I am of course rooting for my German sisters, but all of them are so freaking amazing! I just love this sport so much, I wish it had more room on the Olympic stage like the other gymnasts, I would watch all the individual disciplines (and even more team combinations)

Today was the last day of the six week Intro To Aerial Acrobatics class. We were on the aerial hammock this week (it's aerial silks, but instead of two silks it's just one in a big loop).

I learned how to stand up in the loop and support myself on one leg out at a 90-degree angle while the rest of me was trying desperately not to fall, and then do some funky twisty sideways thing with my knees that ends with you kneeling in the silks. I also managed to tie my legs together at one point, but luckily I fell out of the loop before anyone noticed.

I'm still wobbly, my arms feel like jello, every week I've gotten bruises in a very weird, completely unexpected place and this week it was ankles, I think I have an ankle blister, and I'm pretty certain I want to keep taking these classes.

(I'm still blaming @aimasup for this)

i want to hear you share to the class about acrobat i like her a lot

so real actually

she’s another fucking tick character because I am frothing at the mouth abojt this series still but she’s from the 2017 remake, which is. a little different in several ways

her entire thing is that she’s a child who lost her family to a supervillain holding them all hostage in a threat, but because of their not being important they were. pretty much left to be numbers in a newspaper. acrobat survived just with a bout of hypothermia

OBVIOUSLY this was bad press for A.E.G.I.S., who is already notoriously known for being a Weird Government Organization so when none of her family members could take custody of her, they did.

She doesn’t know anything about them actively not interfering with the death of her community.

because her parents are dead she wishes to be a sort of superhero after seeing the people around the organization. her name of choice is “acrobat”. her suit is a little childish, she just has well. the suit of an acrobat. and a bunch of protective gear so she doesn’t injure herself skateboarding around. (her helmet has these comical bat ears and her suit has little flying squirrel type wings attached … goofball behavior)

she’s a regular 12 year old essentially. a little more mature because she was more or less forced too for her own sake- but she still has the general demeanor of thinking she is the slickest coolest kid around

probably good friends with edgelord (yes there is a character named edgelord in this series.) because I think their dynamic would be comical
