It emphasizes strength, balance, and flexibility, showcasing dynamic lifts, intricate partner balances, and synchronized tumbling sequences. Teams are judged on execution, difficulty, and artistry, combining athleticism with artistic expression.

Acrobatic gymnastics has roots in various traditional and circus arts, but its modern competitive form emerged in the mid-20th century. The discipline gained recognition in the gymnastics community, with the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) officially adopting its rules in the 1970s. Since then, acrobatic gymnastics has evolved, with the first World Championships held in 1974. It continues to grow as a dynamic and captivating gymnastic discipline.
