Acrobatic gymnasts must possess a high level of strength, flexibility, and agility to perform the difficult skills required in their routines. They must also have excellent coordination and teamwork skills to work seamlessly with their partners and create a visually stunning performance.

In competition, acrobatic gymnastics is judged on a number of factors including difficulty, execution, artistry, and choreography. Teams are awarded scores based on how well they perform their routines and how well they meet the requirements of the competition.

Acrobatic gymnastics competitions are held at both national and international levels, with the most prestigious event being the World Championships, which takes place every two years. The sport is also a recognized discipline of the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) and has been included in the World Games since 1993.
