Course Details

Acrobatic training teaches flexibility, balance, strength, muscle control, and above all, discipline and concentration. Classes work on stretching and strengthening the body and learning tricks ranging from Forward Rolls to Forward Ariel’s. 

Students are taught in a safe environment with excellent teachers on matting until confidence is gained.  Basic tumbling skills can be an added bonus for any dancer. 

A dancer will gain more flexibility and upper body strength, giving them a substantial advantage in today's demanding choreography. 

It is an excellent way to learn spatial awareness, an important element in partnering and ensemble work.  Acrobatics classes are open to students from 10 years and above.  Tumbling mats are supplied.

Upon graduation from high school, Hannah moved to Brisbane to study a Bachelor of Creative Industries (Dance/Drama) and Bachelor of Education (Secondary) at the Queensland University of Technology. At the completion of this degree, Hannah commenced work at Cairns State High School as a dance and drama teacher. She is currently in charge of the Centre of Excellence Senior Dance program at Cairns High as well as the FNQ Heat, Bulldogs and Marlins cheerleading teams. In 2008, Hannah was awarded the Noreen Wilcox Award for Excellence in Teaching as a result of her outstanding work with Indigenous youth and male dancers.
