ACRONIA 2026

Kat is a Belgian acrobat specializing in handstands, Icarian, standing acro, and whip-pops. She began gymnastics at age six and later earned a Master’s in Sports and Movement Sciences from the University of Leuven, before teaching and performing across Europe.

In 2024, she co-founded the Acro Church with Kiljan — a unique space born from years of travel, shared vision, and community. Set in a transformed historic church in Hettstedt, it brings together acrobats and artists through workshops, residencies, and gatherings, creating a place to train, live, and connect

Backwards rotation - icarian tricks
Kiljan, Kat

Different backwards rotating icarians. We start with sharing our apraoch for martinis and back tucks. You should be already working on them (with spotter/ longe), so we can really go into detail and maybe check out some variations if there is still enough time.

Standing Cascade + variations
Kiljan, Kat

We see a lot of people try cascades starting from foot to hand which is not necessarily the easiest approach. We will check for timing, certain body positions in specific moments of the trick and power out put (more is not always better) to make a hard trick as achievable as possible.

Original Whip pop we came up with last year. The final trick is a full fish with a 90 degree side rotation to log. yes, thats challenging but we break it apart in a lot of pre-exercises which are fun tricks by it self.

Monos in L- und S-Base
Kiljan, Kat

Mono foot to hand and hand to hand is a journey - the longer you keep doing it, the more you learn about details that later might turn out to essentials. we collected the details we picked up on our own journey and share them with you.
