Acrobatics

Acrobatics is the art and sport of extreme displays of balance, agility, and motor control. Acrobatic history can be traced back to the Minoan civilization of 2000 BC, but only became widely recognized and practiced during the 19th c. CE, when circuses became popular attractions.

What are the differences between acrobatic and rhythmic gymnastics?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There two very different sports. But heres a breif overview of both -

ARTISTIC GYMNASTICS: this one involves four appartus, floor, vault, bars and beam. If you do artistic gym you have to do all four. Artist invovles such things as leaps, walkovers, tumble lines (backflips-backsaults, frontsaults etc.) Strenght is a must have(but don't worrie that's something you gain with lessons), and flexibilitie helps although depending how far you would want to go its not a need. (Also depending on different peoples coaching views.) Artistic is a little similar to both acrobatics, and dancing. Its more about tricks, strength, flips, and everything in between.

RHYTHMIC GYMNASTICS: is a very pretty sport. Its a bit of a mix between calasenthinics, and dance. It involves doing tricks, (ie. throwing and catching, leaping walkovering) with a ribbon, ball, clubs, skipping rope, and hool hoop. Flexibilitie is a must have! For it is a main thing in rhythmic gym.

Were ninjas really as acrobatic as movies portray them as?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes, actually. In ancient times, ninjas were able to scale walls and infiltrate buildings silently. They could climb trees, blend in with the surroundings, spy, and assassinate enemy targets. They were so acrobatic that people at that time associated them with supernatural powers, like flight.
