We have successfully recreated our Module One Certification Course to be LIVE online via Zoom!
A course conductor will have a dancer to demonstrate proper spotting, progressions and technique, just like our in-person courses! We have reduced the number of participants to ensure an intimate and focused educational experience.
Teachers interested in participating on this platform must have a willing student or family member with them during the course whom they will spot. The demonstrator should be capable of a strong bridge recover, handstand, and cartwheel.
This course covers the first half of the syllabus, from Primary to Level 6. During this course, teachers will learn proper placement and technique for the foundations of AcroDance, including handstands, cartwheels and bridges.
Teachers will learn proper spotting techniques, basic anatomy, AcroDance transitions and lesson planning. The skill level for this course ends at level 6 in the Acrobatic Arts Syllabus (back walkovers, front chest stands, assisted handstands) and is pre-requisite for Acrobatic Arts Module Two.
Module One Certified teachers can register dancers for exams up to Level 6.
Online Study: This course requires the completion of an Online Study before the course. The study will be emailed out to the registered teacher seven days before the course begins. Completion of the Online Study is required to attain certification with Acrobatic Arts.
Pre-requisite:
The pre-requisite for the Module One Course is a solid understanding of basic Ballet technique and terminology. It is expected that all teachers understand the progressions and placement of these techniques before coming to the course.
This can be proven in three ways:
Teacher Certification from a reputable training program (like the RAD, DMA, ADAS, CSTD, University Degree in Dance, etc.) or
A letter of recommendation from a dance professional who holds status with a reputable training program, or
By submitting a video of students, you have taught performing a routine or combination showcasing exceptional technique (does not have to be acro).
Alternatively, teachers with extensive gymnastics training or a substantial understanding of the human body can contact us to confirm that you qualify for this program.
Teachers participating in the LIVE online events must have a dancer in their home to practice spotting.
