With experience and dedication, athlete pairs/groups may be invited to compete for Team USA at National and international events.

Compulsory

Our Compulsory Acro Team program (Levels 4-6) teaches athletes the fundamentals of Acrobatic Gymnastics. Athletes in this group will compete at 2-3 local competitions, as well as State and Regional Championships. These Acrobats will master level-specific routines and become familiar with balance and dynamic partner elements, tumbling, and learn body and air awareness. Our Compulsory team will train between 4-6 hours a week and will also receive opportunities to perform at events hosted by CCG such as showcases, Farmers Markets and National Gymnastics Day! This group is a great introduction to competing in the sport of Acrobatic Gymnastics!

Our Optional team athletes are the most advanced athletes in the Acrobatics Program. Many of these athletes have competed in the sport for multiple years and have aspirations of competing internationally! These Acrobats will attend 4-5 local competitions and, upon qualifying, will also attend State, Regional, and National Championships. Athletes in this group will receive innovative choreography and will perform complex partner skills. These athletes generally train between 9-20 hours a week during the months of September- June, depending on their level.
