Founded in 1993, AcroSports is a Bay Area non-profit institution that states its mission as “Creating Community through Movement, Circus and Performance Arts.” It serves over 2,500 youth and adult students per week in its facility and offsite community outreach programs, and reaches over 12,000 youth and adult students at all levels of experience every year. Junior classes are offered for children ages 10 months to 5 years in a multi-level gymnasium with one-of-a-kind equipment, and youth classes are offered for active children ages 6 and up. The program is determined to offer the best coaching staff by attracting and training talented individuals in acrobatics, gymnastics, dance, and the circus arts, and follows the guiding principle “Safety First!” All coaches are CPR and First Aid certified. AcroSports is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors, staffed by professionals, and supported by parents, students, and friends; the leadership team includes Executive Director Dorrie Huntington, Board President Dan Fitting, Treasurer Peter Van der Sterre, Secretary Jennifer Niles, and Board Members Jake McGoldrick, Mark St. Peter, and Larry Rosenberg.
AcroSports has been formally recognized and honored for engaging and empowering youth by both the San Francisco Board of Supervisors and the California State Legislature, including a Certificate of Recognition from the California Legislature Assembly and a Board of Supervisors’ Proclamation declaring May 18, 2003 “AcroSports Day.” The organization reaches out to the community by working with schools, various city programs, and other non-profit organizations, and supports outreach activity that includes offering free on- and off-site physical recreation programs to children in need. Many public school outreach programs are significantly subsidized by AcroSports and are provided at low cost so schools can use their limited resources. AcroSports is committed to providing the AcroSports experience to students of all economic means by offering tuition assistance and numerous low-cost in-school programs.
Parent and community testimonials describe AcroSports as having coaches who are dedicated to their jobs and to their students, and mention that the facility has so much variety, is always clean, and has lots of room. One parent notes that their child enjoyed classes enough that they also chose to have a birthday party there, and another describes returning for a second year in a row for a child’s birthday party at ages 5 and 6. A testimonial from Assemblyman Mark Leno congratulates AcroSports on ten years of engaging and empowering youth and adults through acrobatics, dance, gymnastics, and circus arts, and notes that the organization provides a safe and positive environment and reaches out to diverse communities.
