Acrobatics & Dance — Two Components of Victory

Modern figure skating demands perfection in everything. You cannot win by mastering only one skill.

Acrobatics (Complexity): Cartwheels, flips, and tricks in step sequences give you high Levels and a technical edge.

Dance (Components): The second mark (PCS) often decides the outcome of the competition. Body control, rhythm, and musicality are what distinguish a champion from a participant. Our formula: Acrobatic Power + Dance Aesthetics = Your Victory.

Curriculum: Backflips, Rhythm & Style

Ultra-C Acrobatics: Learning Backflips, Cartwheels, Round-offs, and Aerials. Now that the ISU has legalized backflips, these elements are powerful weapons in the Choreo Sequence.

Modern Flow: We don't teach ballet at the barre here. We teach Contemporary and Jazz-Funk — styles that master body control, adding "waves" and freedom of movement.

Musical Nerve: Learning to hit the beat and accents. Judges reward tricks that land exactly on the music strike.

Pro Safety: To perform a flip on ice, you must master soft landings on mats to the point of automatism.

Why Both Disciplines Matter?

Presentation (PCS): Judges want to see a show. Dance training provides freedom of movement, emotion, and style, directly impacting component scores.

Composition: Acrobatic inserts make the program rich and modern, distinguishing you from competitors.

Transitions: Dance steps fill the gaps between jumps, making the performance a cohesive work of art.

Training Format

A 2-in-1 class. Part one — warm-up and acrobatic technique (strength and agility). Part two — learning dance combinations (coordination and rhythm).

Methodology

Liberation: Many skaters are stiff. Dance helps remove psychological blocks, teaching how to express emotions with face and body.

Trends: We follow the figure skating world and teach the exact sequences currently popular among top choreographers.

Safety: All tricks are learned on a soft floor, with spotting and lead-up drills.

Required Equipment & Attire

Soft Mat: Mandatory for acrobatics!

Clear Space: 2x2 meters.

Attire: Elastic, comfortable. Tuck in your t-shirt.

Footwear: Soft jazz shoes, ballet slippers, or thick socks. Sneakers are prohibited (they block the foot articulation needed for dance).
