N.A.C. General Information

Why Join NAC?
NAC isn’t just about competition—it’s about confidence, fun, and growth! Students gain valuable experience performing in front of an audience, which helps build poise, focus, and self-esteem. The excitement of competition motivates kids to work hard, and as a result, NAC students often advance more quickly than recreational students.
Plus, being part of a team, wearing their special leotard and jacket, and celebrating their progress makes the whole experience so much fun!
If your child loves tumbling and is ready for a little challenge, NAC is a great next step!

What is NAC?
NAC stands for National Acrobat Competition—a local tumbling competition for students from Miss Maria’s and other area studios.

How It Works:

Students learn a routine during class based on their skill level (10 levels total).
Each routine has about 15 tumbling skills.
Students may also compete on the Mini Trampoline (5 levels).
Students compete against others in the Kansas City Metro area and receive individual placement awards.
Competitions last 1–3 hours.

Class Info:

NAC classes meet once a week for 1 hour.
Students may choose to take 1 or 2 NAC classes per week.
Classes follow the regular Miss Maria’s tuition schedule.
Recital participation is required to be part of NAC.
It’s strongly recommended to also enroll in an additional gymnastics/tumbling or USAG Pre-Team class to accelerate progress and build stronger skills.
