What most Acro Dance teachers do when they want to improve their teaching skills is to rely on their own experience or try to find new ideas online. But for many teachers, these options don't provide the inspiration, networking opportunities, or fresh perspectives they need..
* Are you tired of feeling stuck in your teaching journey?
* Have you been searching for a way to reignite your passion for Acro?
* Do you crave a supportive community of like-minded teachers who understand your challenges and aspirations?
If you continue teaching without seeking new knowledge and connections? You risk becoming stagnant in your career, missing out on valuable opportunities for growth, and losing touch with the latest trends in Acro Dance education.
Don't let that happen - join us at the AcroLIVE Teachers Conference and take your teaching skills to the next level.

For the past four years, the Acro Dance teaching community has been navigating uncertain and turbulent times. Melissa Klassen, President of the Acro Dance Teachers Association, and a passionate Acro teacher herself, felt the impact of this upheaval. As the industry shifted to online learning, Melissa recognized that something was missing. The connection and camaraderie that came from in-person events were irreplaceable. She knew it was time to embark on a quest to bring Acro teachers back together again.
In her journey to revive the sense of community among Acro Dance teachers, Melissa had a breakthrough moment. She realized just how much they all needed each other in this unique industry. Acro teaching is not widely understood, and only those within the community truly understand its challenges and triumphs. It became clear to Melissa that an in-person conference would be the catalyst for unity and growth within the Acro Dance teaching world.
With her newfound purpose, Melissa set out to create something extraordinary - The AcroLIVE Teachers Conference. This conference would be more than just an event; it would be a transformative experience for Acro teachers worldwide.
Bringing together experts, educators, and enthusiasts from all corners of the globe, The AcroLIVE Teachers Conference would become the biggest gathering in the world for Acro Dance teachers.
At this conference, teachers would have the opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals who understand their unique challenges and aspirations. Workshops led by industry leaders would provide valuable insights and techniques to enhance their teaching skills. The conference would be a space for collaboration, inspiration, and personal growth.
Melissa's vision was clear - to create an environment where Acro teachers could come together, learn from each other, and reignite their passion for teaching. The AcroLIVE Teacher's Conference would be the turning point in bringing the Acro Dance teaching community back to its vibrant and supportive roots.
