Bend at Any Angle
At Bend Acrobatics Academy, we combine the art of dance with the strength and precision of acrobatics to inspire confident, creative movers.
Our youngest student began training at just 1.5 years old and can already perform a forward roll!
Founded in 2022, Bend Acrobatics Academy has grown rapidly and currently serves over 200 active students.
We proudly host two recitals each year — one in winter and one in summer — and our elite students also compete in acro dance competitions.
- About Us
Bend Acrobatics Academy
At Bend Acrobatics Academy, we are dedicated to inspiring and nurturing young acrobats and dancers of all ages and skill levels. Our mission is to provide a safe, supportive, and engaging environment where every student can develop strength, flexibility, coordination, and confidence—both on and off the floor.
We believe in a student-centered approach, emphasizing skill progression, creativity, and self-expression. From toddlers in our Mommy & Me classes to advanced acrobats in our Elite Group, each student is guided through age-appropriate curriculum designed to build foundational skills, promote independence, and foster a lifelong love for movement. Our co-ed and all-girls classes encourage teamwork, respect, and perseverance, while also providing opportunities for performance and, for some, competition.
