Acrobatic Dance Classes at Footsteps Dance School

Acrobatic dance is a dynamic fusion of dance and gymnastics. At Footsteps, it is taught only by certified Acrobatic Arts instructors. This internationally respected syllabus ensures that your child learns with consistency, control and support. We believe strongly in progressions: your child will never be asked to perform a skill they’re not ready for.

For example, children are taught basic strength and mobility before moving on to forward rolls or handstands. If a child hasn’t mastered these early steps, they won’t be asked to attempt more advanced tricks like cartwheels or walkovers. This method minimises injury and gives dancers the confidence to grow at their own pace.

As one of the most established providers of kids acrobatic dance classes in Greater Manchester, we focus on building strength and technique from the ground up.
