Soft Acrobatics Intensive

What is the Intensive Course Format?

Our intensive courses run over two months with four extended workshops that build on each other. They are designed for people who want more depth and continuity than weekly drop-in classes can offer, and who are happy to spend time exploring fewer things more thoroughly in a supportive group.

The course is open to all levels. Beginners and intermediates are equally welcome, especially if you’re curious, and willing to dive deeper into the topic of the course.

Soft Acrobatics Intensive: This course is dedicated to building a personal Soft Acrobatics practice through time, repetition, and exploration.

Across four workshops, we work with three core movements: macaco, reversão, and forward cartwheel (au de frente). Each movement is approached as a pathway into flow, coordination, and expression. The focus is on understanding how the movement works in your body and how it can connect to other actions.

The training progresses step by step. We build the strength, mobility, and body organization needed to support each movement, while practicing the shapes and pathways that allow for clean and confident execution. You will explore different entries, exits, and transitions so the movements gradually become part of your own movement language.

Sessions balance technical clarity with time to move, repeat, and explore. Emphasis is placed on physical experience, allowing confidence and understanding to grow through practice.

What to expect:

• A structured and methodical approach informed by the ecological method, gymnastics, and movement training
• Strength and mobility work that prepares the body for acrobatic demands
• Practice of key body shapes and weight shifts that support efficient execution
• Learning through doing, with exercises that build confidence and embodied understanding
• A supportive group environment with space to progress at your own pace
• Sequences, improvisation, and playful exploration to develop a rich and adaptable practice

This intensive offers time and guidance to build foundations, refine movement quality, and explore how acrobatics can flow naturally within your broader movement practice.This is a focused deep dive designed for people who want time, attention, and depth in their training.
