I was a Client Served & I brought 8 people to a Capoeira class here
Post public compliment
AcroSports is a wonderful organization that offers children and adults new opportunities to exercise and explore their imaginations, cross cultural traditions, empowerment and simply have fun.
I took a Capoeira class here with a fabulous Brazilian instructor who was patient, generous and kind. You can also learn to master Parkour (the French art of urban climbing) in a safe and padded setting.
Bring your kids and you can enjoy dance, gymnastics and staying healthy together.
The Great!
- I've seen the results of this organization in... The community of Parkour on the streets of San Francisco
- What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is... discovering the Brazilian community in my city. I was invited to a Capoeira fundraiser the next evening and it was amazing.
- The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were... Friendly, accommodating and easy to work with.
- If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could... Build its own festival with music and circus, arts and dance performers from around the world.
Ways to make it better!
- My experience would have been better if... We could pre-pay for a group online before getting there.
- If I ran this organization, I would... Be so pleased with my decisions in life.
- In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are... marketing. I knew a man who worked here and that's how I found out about it. They need more press.
I think AcroSports ig a really good camp because we do things that are really fun to do like doing the fast track.
The Great!

- The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were... really nice and smart
- If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could... cooler things to do AcroSports!
Ways to make it better!
- My experience would have been better if... we stretched more and did different stretches [before engaging in the different physical exercises and activities]
My 10 year old son recently participated in 1 week of circus camp and 1 week of x-sports camp. He has never been so enthusiastic about any other summer camp he has been enrolled in. Each day when I picked him up, he was full of stories about what he learned at camp. To top it off, he actually enjoyed participating in the end of week performance for the parents. I think this is because the instructors let the campers contribute ideas about what they want the performance to be. So, the campers develop, practice, and put on their own performance with the guidance of the instructors. My son usually loathes school performances and gets very nervous before his piano recitals and I knew this camp was worth every penny spent when my tween said to me, "Mom, I wasn't embarassed at all."
The Great!
- I've seen the results of this organization in... my son's self-esteem.
- What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is... I don't have to force my son to go.
- The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were... Generally good with children at different developmental stages.
- If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could... Do more mobile programs to service public schools that have had to cut PE programs because of budget crisis.
Ways to make it better!
- My experience would have been better if... they thought about using some kind of air freshener? It is a gym, after all...
- If I ran this organization, I would... Try to reach out more to young children from lower socio-economic groups. Many public schools have had to cut PE programs, especially to younger students because of budget crisis.
- In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are... Growth and potentially needing more space?
I love acrosports because it is fun because I get to climb and to get my face painted. The people are fun.
The Great!
- What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is... everything, but I like the climbing the best.
- The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were... really nice.
Ways to make it better!
- My experience would have been better if... nothing.
