Technique Matters
CONTROL • ALLIGNMENT • SAFETY
Acro Unlimited provides individualized programs to each dancer. While many studios focus on the big tricks I find many skip the basics and building a strong foundation. Not having a strong foundation and skipping through progressions leads athletes to a higher risk of injury, which isn’t worth it in the long run. Here at Acro Unlimited I make sure to fill those holes while still working towards the individual skills the athlete is aiming for! Online lessons use video demonstrations, body shaping and progressions to teach safely without a spot.

“Savannah is amazing! We found her while looking for online classes due to Covid but we will continue the amazing training even though we are back in the studio. In just a few short months, my daughter has drastically improved her skills and techniques. Savannah is a very constructive teacher and supports my daughter so much that her outlook on acro has done a 180, she believes she can do anything now. I highly recommend Savannah in person or online!”
“Savannah is AMAZING and I cannot recommend her enough!!! She is such a bright spot in our week, always so upbeat and encouraging!!! I am in awe of what my daughter has been able to accomplish with Savannah in just a few short weeks over zoom!!! She has a way of explaining things that just seems to click with my daughter! And I love to hear her cheering my daughter on over zoom…she sounds like her biggest fan, which is so heartwarming to hear!!! After coming back from an injury and feeling stuck with her aerials, Savannah has taken my daughter “back to basics,” which is what she has needed to develop some of the foundations of a beautiful aerial! My daughter is learning proper form and technique which is already helping her develop more confidence in her skills! We can’t wait to see more growth with our continued lessons! We are so grateful for Acro Unlimited…Savannah is seriously the BEST!!!
