Overview of LAVA Classes:
LAVA classes serve youth and adults who seek the inspiration, transformation, and joy of physical accomplishment. Classes teach a basic yet rigorous movement vocabulary that uses acrobatics to improve strength, flexibility, and coordination; by learning group action and partnering techniques, students also gain communication and conflict-resolution skills that are invaluable in all walks of life.

Unlike traditional gymnastics or dance classes, the LAVA method focuses on connection with our physical, social, creative, and intellectual selves. Teachers have trained in Chinese acrobatics with Mr. Lu Yi and the San Francisco Circus Center, and classes incorporate instructors' experience in dance, improvisation, theater, capoeira, yoga, martial arts, and body awareness.
