Hello there, tiny tumblers and little leapers! Welcome to our delightful Acro Beginners Dance Class, meticulously designed for our budding acrobats aged between 5 and 9. Are you ready to jump into an exciting world of flips, spins, and maybe a cartwheel or two? If your answer is a resounding "Yes!", then you're in the right place. Acro dance is a unique style that combines the grace of dance with the thrill of acrobatics. Our Acro Beginners class is the perfect introduction to this fascinating dance form. From the moment your little one steps onto our specially designed acro mats, they'll be set for an exhilarating journey of discovery! Our class starts with basic acrobatic tricks that are as fun to learn as they are to perform. We'll be somersaulting, cartwheeling, and even handstanding our way into the world of acro dance. Our friendly and experienced instructors will ensure that each child learns at their own pace in a safe and supportive environment. But we'll be doing more than just acrobatics. We're also working on enhancing flexibility, balance, and stretching. Through a variety of engaging activities and exercises, your child will develop these skills, becoming not just a better acro dancer, but also a more confident mover! Yet, our Acro Beginners class is not just about learning acro dance. We believe that dance is an invaluable tool for teaching life skills. Through acro dance, your child will improve their self-esteem, learn to work as part of a team, and even develop resilience. Each cartwheel, leap, and roll is a lesson in determination and self-belief! And let's not forget the wonderful friends your child will make in our class. Acro dance is about collaboration and trust, and our class is a community of little acrobats supporting and cheering for each other. Your child will make friendships that go beyond the dance floor, creating beautiful memories along the way. So, lace up your dancing shoes, little acrobats! It's time to tumble, flip, and leap into the captivating world of acro dance. We can't wait to welcome you to our Acro Beginners Dance Class and start this exciting journey together. Remember, acro dance is about having fun, expressing yourself, and working together. So, let's embark on our acro adventure, where every flip and roll is a step towards joy and self-confidence! See you on the dance mat!

On behalf of the Growing Younger and More Diverse Team, we would love to invite you to our leader’s brunches. We are partnering with Youthscape, Project 267 and The Haven to bring together paid and volunteer youth leaders from around the Diocese. In a Youthscape report on Y and C provision in the Diocese, it was found that "on the current trajectory, the average Sunday attendance of 0-15s in the Diocese would be zero in just ten years' time". We want to reverse this and believe with prayer, the right focus and working together, we can reverse this decline. We would love for you to partner with us as we make Growing Younger and More Diverse a priority. On Wednesday July 10th we will be doing something slightly different to the usual routine and gathering together between 12:00 - 15:00 over lunch in order to reflect and share around all that God has been doing in this season. We would love for you to come. Date: Wednesday 10th July Time: 12:00 - 14:30 Venue: Zeo Centre, Beford Road, SG51HF Location and Parking:  Nearest car park is Christchurch Car Park located on Bedford Rd, Hitchin SG5 1JN Weather allowing, we will meet on Butts Close on Bedford Road for a summer picnic style meal.
