TESTIMONIALS
FROM TRACY
" I love seeing the dance industry move forward with acrobatics and contortion incorporated into some dance styles. After many broadcasted dance shows, acrobatics and contortion in dance have risen over the years, pushing it to a whole new level.
I'm passionate about making sure acrobatics and contortion are being taught safely. A certain amount of flexibility, strength and acrobatic progressions must be taught correctly from the beginning of their journey to ensure they are still happily dancing when they are old "
