Spellbound

In 2010 the acro gymnastics squad, "Spellbound" won the popular TV show Britain’s got talent.  This was a true eye-opener for this country as a gymnastics group has never really won anything like this before or even got to a final stage.  This increased popularity of the sport and many more people were made aware of what acrobatic gymnastics actually is.  The crowd and judges reaction to Spellbound’s audition were incredible.  It really was something they had never seen before because acro gymnastics is not something that is available to watch on the TV like other sports.  The team made it through their first audition with an anonymous decision from the judges and excelled themselves in their routines each week.  They obviously had to put a lot of hard work into their training and their skills were faultless every time.  They were a truly outstanding act and hopefully succeeded in promoting the sport worldwide.  This video is the routine they performed in the final to win the competition.
