  1. What Sets Infinite Edge Movement (IEM) Programs Apart?

Infinite Edge Movement (IEM) programs stand out from traditional gymnastics and performing arts programs in several key ways:

Multidisciplinary Approach: IEM offers a unique blend of acrobatics, trampoline, dance, circus aerials, and reformer Pilates, allowing students to explore a diverse range of movement disciplines under one roof.

All Skill Levels Welcome: IEM classes are designed to accommodate students of all skill levels, from absolute beginners to advanced practitioners. Our experienced instructors tailor their teaching to meet individual needs, ensuring that every student can progress at their own pace.

Safety Protocols: Safety is a top priority at IEM. Our instructors are trained in safety procedures, and we adhere to strict safety protocols for all activities, including the use of appropriate safety equipment for trampoline and aerials.

Trial Classes: IEM offers trial classes, allowing prospective students to experience the program before committing to a full session. This helps individuals and families determine if IEM is the right fit for their interests and goals.

Diverse Class Schedule: IEM provides a diverse class schedule, including options on weekdays and weekends to accommodate various schedules. This flexibility ensures that students can find classes that fit their lifestyle.

Personalised Attention: In smaller class sizes and through the availability of private lessons, IEM offers more personalized attention to students, helping them progress faster and achieve their goals.

Unique Skill Set: By offering a combination of movement disciplines, IEM students develop a unique skill set that sets them apart. Whether it’s performing acrobatics, mastering trampoline skills, or creating captivating aerial routines, our students have a wide range of talents to showcase.
