Location: Clifton College at Chellaram Sports Ground, Bristol, England, United Kingdom
The annual Standing Acro Convention celebrates the ambition and creativity of all things partner and group acrobatics.
“It’s everything I want from an acro event – great teachers and workshops, safe and supportive environment, and a real focus on community” (2025 Participant)
We bring the best teachers we know, with diverse expertise (circus, gymnastics, cheer, dance), to inspire and offer techniques for different physicalities and skillsets.
Workshops include:
– duo acrobatics: static and dynamic skills, hand to hand, acrobalance
– group acrobatics: towers, swinging, toss, banquine, and group stunts
– adagio, creative sequencing, and dance acro
Plus lots of extra opportunities to learn and connect:
– individual coaching
– lunchtime banquine club
– lots of jam time, including use of longes
– games and socials
The aim is for everyone to have the chance to improve their skills, have fun, and be ambitious in a supportive and welcoming environment.
