Thailand 2020 Intensive & Advanced Training
January 6, 2020 - January 19, 2020
Program
Program
A two week long training with Partner Acrobatics with lots of options to train at your level.
Our Intensive and Advanced Training is unique because our students get to create their own personal acrobatics adventure. Classes for both the Intensive and Advanced Intensive will run simultaneously. Higher level offerings will have separate pre-requisites that will need to be met in order to participate in the class.
Come dial in your current challenges, learn the tricks you covet, and do it all in a supportive community full of lightness, laughter, and general shenanigans.
No partner necessary, however if you expect to be training with someone of a particular level we recommend you bring that partner.
In our Partner Acrobatics programs we cover many different acrobatic disciplines: standing acrobatics, handstand training, washing machines, trio tricks, Icarian games, to name a few.
This physical intensity is balanced out with our therapeutic sessions, which aim to heal and restore the body.
This program will give you the chance to refine your Acro skills and to have loads of fun.

Send us 1 video
- 1-2 minute acrobatic flow of your choice.
The video should represent where you are at skill-wise, however, it doesn’t need to be all of the craziest things you can do—think elements from the preqs! The video also doesn’t need to be of high production quality, a quick one on your cell phone is fine:)
