about ACRO CONNECTION

Acro Connection is the biggest acro school in Slovenia that offers regular classes for partner acrobatics (“acroyoga”) for different levels, from complete beginners to advanced practitioners. Our vision is to share partner acrobatics with many couples and show them that they can have fun, learn a lot and do something good for their bodies at the same time. 

We advocate that the basics are the foundation of partner acrobatics, so we put a lot of emphasis on them. All our coaches will teach you the correct technique on the course, which you will then practice with different flows during the course. In the past three years we have already taken more than 100 couples through the beginner’s course, and during that time we have perfected the programme for teaching beginners.

We believe that anyone can learn the basics if they get the right guidance and corrections, so our goal is that in the end, all students can confidently perform the basic elements alone. They also acquire knowledge, which is the foundation for learning harder acro elements in the future.

about MATJAŽ & ALJA, founders of ACRO CONNECTION​

IMG_5162

After finishing our dance (Alja) and gymnastics (Matjaž) career we were searching for a fun activity, which we could to together as a couple and we fell in love with partner acro (acroyoga).

Our favourite thing about acro is that you can never stop playing. There are so many “disciplines” that you can do, so it’s never boring.

Our mission is to spread our love for acro with our students and show them that they can do much more than they think.

ps. There’s not much yoga in our acroyoga, so expect a lot of dynamics, handstands, pops,…:)
