What is the difference between rhythmic gymnastics and acro dance?
I've done both and there's definitely a big difference though many think it's the same. In gymnastics, athletes show off the difference things they can do using what equipment they get. For example, jumping on beam. But in acro, you do the same things without any equipment. Acro is also more dance-like, in my acro dance we did pirouettes and leaps and also threw in flips and ariels. While in gymnastics you would do a short routine with as many tricks you could fit in. In short form, acro is basically gymnastics without all the equipment and it's more dance-like.
