Acrobatic Gymnastics · Worldwide

One community for every acrobatic gymnastics coach in the world.

AcroCoaches brings together the coaches who design the routines, prepare the athletes and carry the responsibility for safety and progress — so that our collective experience becomes a single, well-reasoned voice in the development of our sport.

Free to join · Open to active and former acrobatic gymnastics coaches of every federation

Why a coaches community?

Coaches are not passive observers of our sport. We design routines, we teach the elements, we assess real difficulty and risk every day in the gym. Yet until now there has been no structured, worldwide channel through which that practical expertise can reach the people who write the rules.

Gather

A single place where acrobatic gymnastics coaches from every country can meet, discuss and consolidate their views — on difficulty tables, element evaluation, safety and the development of the sport.

Elect

From within the community, coaches elect a small expert group — the Coaches Council — trusted to turn the discussions of the base into formal, well-reasoned proposals.

Advise

The Council works as an advisory partner of the Technical Committee: it brings the community's expertise to the TC, and brings the TC's reasoning back to every coach in the world.

"The coach has both the right and the responsibility to express a well-reasoned opinion on every entry in the difficulty table." — Draft Regulations of the Coaches Council, 2026

How it works

A two-way bridge between the coaching community and the Technical Committee.

Coaches worldwide Join the community, open topics, share experience from the gym
Community forum Discussions are consolidated into clear positions of the coaching base
Elected Coaches Council Turns positions into formal proposals with rationale and risk analysis
Technical Committee Considers the proposals; final decisions remain with the TC

What the Coaches Council does

The Council is an expert advisory group — it does not replace the Technical Committee. Its first focus is the assessment, alignment and development of the difficulty tables for elements.

1

Gathering input

Consolidating the coaching community's position on specific elements and their ratings in the difficulty table.

2

Well-reasoned proposals

Formal submissions to the Technical Committee: summary, detailed rationale, routine examples and an implementation option.

3

Feasibility assessment

Evaluating whether elements are realistically achievable at junior and senior level, considering age and anthropometric factors.

4

Risk analysis

Identifying elements with a high risk of injury under their current rating and recommending safeguards and risk-reduction measures.

5

Trial periods

Developing criteria to test changes to the difficulty table in competition before final approval.

6

Precedent database

Documenting successful and unsuccessful changes to the tables and their real consequences for team preparation.

Founding documents
