Every month, AcroSports coaches train thousands of students in our large facility near Golden Gate Park. At the same time, AcroSports conducts an extensive outreach program in the Bay Area K-12 schools.
Our programs span beginning through advanced levels in gymnastics, traditional circus training, aerial arts, and Urban Circus Arts - a new hybrid performance style developed at AcroSports. Urban Circus Arts encompasses Parkour, Breakdancing, Capoiera, and board sports.
