"Movement arts is where our bodies become the primary medium used to display art. We do this through acrobatics (gymnastics) that originate from the ground and move into the air through suspended-based, aerial arts. This is not a static piece, but a moving, kinetic way of releasing endorphins, strengthening our bodies and working towards the everlasting goal of flexibility."
Coach Teal Belz, Owner and Creative Director
