Hello, Bases & Flyers!
I finally put a deposit down on an apartment today. I cannot wait to stop living out of a backpack for 6 weeks…although to be fair, right now I’m living downstairs from some of my best friends, and just opening the door and seeing them every day has been kind of perfect.
Below is everything acro happening over the next two months, organized by continent so you can plan without scrolling.
So expect in today’s issue:
🎁 Giveaway: 100$ towards your next acro event
✈️ Plan Ahead: April - May all events by region
🌍 Beyond Acro: Cultural Festivals to Catch in April/May

🎁 Win $100 Off Your Next Acro Event
Also…last week, I told you I had something coming.
To celebrate hitting 1,000 of you here!! — I’m running a giveaway:
🫶 Help Grow the Acro Crew + Your Next Festival Might Be $100 Cheaper
Here’s how it works:
Refer an acro friend to Acro Insiders. (Use your unique referral link below so I can track it back to you.)
Each referral = 1 entry
More acro friends = more chances
All you need to do to claim the prize is show proof you’ve booked an acro event festival, retreat, intensive, whatever you’re heading to next.
⏳ Runs for 10 days — until April 10, 11:59 PM (UTC+7)
I’d love to get more acroyogis into this little corner of the internet, so send it to your training partners and your festival crew.
Let’s grow this thing!

🧳 TRAVEL ESSENTIALS — What I Actually Use
I get asked a lot what I pack, book, and use on the road. Here’s the shortlist all tested over years going around the globe.
Booking.com – My default for hotels and guesthouses worldwide.
Agoda – Especially good for Asia deals.
Discovercars.com – Best rental car aggregator.
Skyscanner – Still the fastest way I find cheap multi-leg flights.
Travel Insurance via SafetyWing – Month-to-month coverage for when plans change last-minute.
✈️ Want help planning a bigger trip?
I also offer custom itinerary planning, if you’re planning something epic, but don’t want the logistical overwhelm.
Some links are affiliate — they help keep Acro Insiders running at no extra cost to you.
Thanks for reading! If this issue helped you plan your next acro adventure, forward it to your crew — the more of us on one list, the better it gets.
