Action Calisthenics, the Calisthenics Dance club in Canberra, is excited to promote a local Calisthenics Dance event that is sure to captivate interested players in the area! The event showcases the incredible talent and dedication of our participants, and we can't wait to see everyone showcase their skills.
One of the highlights of our club is the national examination scheme called calisthenics skills that we run. Calisthenics ACT holds classes and examinations for this program, usually in the later part of each calendar year. Participants are required to adhere to a strict dress code and are examined in groups. They are assessed based on the syllabus work they have learned in the classes and receive a feedback sheet from the examiner with a grading out of 100. This program is an excellent opportunity for participants to improve their skills and enjoy the art of calisthenics.
While calisthenics is primarily a team sport, we also offer solo and duo competitions for those looking to further enhance their calisthenics experience. Many of our knowledgeable coaches provide training specifically for solos and duos. Participation in these competitions requires a commitment to additional weekly classes and at-home practice. There are costs involved, such as hall hire, coaching fees, costumes, and competition entry fees. In ACT, we have three competitions available each year for solos and duos. Active involvement in our Action team during team competitions is mandatory for entry into the solo competitions. We encourage all our solo participants to also participate in the calisthenic skills program, as it greatly benefits both the individual and the club. We host a solo concert as a dress rehearsal in March, providing a platform for our interested participants to showcase their talent. If you or your child is interested in participating in solos, please feel free to approach one of our coaches or our Head Coach for advice.
Our Action Calisthenics club truly values representation and strives to send teams and soloists of each age group to the national calisthenics competition held annually by the ACF. This competition is considered the pinnacle of calisthenics, and we are dedicated to giving our registered ACT participants the opportunity to trial for the ACT Representative Team. The selection process typically takes place in October, and training commences immediately after. Nationals rotate between the states and are an unforgettable experience for our talented participants.
Overall, Action Calisthenics is proud to support and encourage the growth of calisthenics skills through our various programs and competitions. We believe that these opportunities not only enhance participants' enjoyment and extension in calisthenics but also contribute to the overall development of our club. So come along and join us at our upcoming Calisthenics Dance event for a spectacular display of talent and passion!
