Increases fexibilty. Is more artistic rather then defense. Teaches acrobatic type skills.
We are both girls - does this matter?

Tae Kwon Do. Lots of high jumping and kicking. Lots of stretching. Very flashy and athletic. Not as good as other martial arts for real fighting, but very artistic instead!

The Next Generation of Martial Arts and these types have atemiwaza ( stiking technique ) coupled to their skills in a perfect marriage and can pull off very effective strikes while executing unbelievable acrobatics.

ITF style Taekwondo. It’s not more artistic than practical - it involves a lot of practical self defence. Those who say it doesn’t have never taken a real taekwondo lesson in their lives. All styles of martial arts are practical, if taught properly.
There are a lot of acrobatic kicks and I think it’s quite a graceful style when you see it in action. Flexibility is an important aspect of taekwondo, and in class you’ll do stretches to improve this as part of your warm up.

Wow, as a Krav Maga teacher, I probably shouldn’t answer this, as what I teach is not pretty, but practical. Let me give it a shot. Your gender does not matter, just your dedication and ability. Chinese Wushu is a truly amazing sport, far more acrobatic than many things.
Contemporary Wushu or Modern Wushu is a combination of Sanda (fighting) and Taolus (forms).
Taolus forms are similar to gymnastics and involve martial art patterns and maneuvers for which competitors are judged and given points according to specific rules. The forms comprise basic movements (stances, kicks, punches, balances, jumps, sweeps and throws) based on aggregate categories traditional Chinese martial art style and can be changed for competitions to highlight one’s strengths. Competitive forms have time limits that can range from 1 minute, 20 seconds for the some external styles to over five minutes for internal styles. Modern wushu competitors are increasingly training in aerial techniques such as 540 and 720 degree jumps and kicks to add more difficulty and style to their forms.
Chinese Martial Arts in general are beautiful, I have studied both Yang and Wu style Taijiquan, preferring Wu as it is shorter frame, both are considered a form of wushu, but then there is modern wushu which is a combination of fighting and forms and requires gymnastics moves. It is really awesome to watch, in fact Jet Li was a Chinese National Wushu champion.
The Wushu forms are really amazing, this is the only part I am not plagiarizing from the web, I have seen some pretty awesome Wushu.
I put in a link to a place in Sheffield, I’m thinking you meant Sheffield UK, not USA. Sorry if I am wrong.

try wushu its a will increase your flexibilty, it is a performance art mainly (its what u see on tv and in films usually) and there are lots of jumping and kicking butterfly kick being a widely used acrobatic skill used in wushu, it (butterfly kick) doesnt have any real offensive or defence application its just for how really as if u hit anyone doing that you will do a face plant.

caporei is like a dance style of fight, it should improve flexibilty, keep you in shape, and should be acrobatic enough for you

Capoeira, Performance Wushu, and XMA Taekwondo are all very flash, very acrobatic styles that rely on flexibility and gymnastic skill. None of them are particularly practical, but they definitely meet your requirements. If you are 21 I recommend Capoeira, it will have a higher proportion of adults in it and be more geared towards adult learning. Most XMA schools assume you already have half of the skills and Performance Wushu is very very hard to find in the USA.

Like others have said, Wushu and Capoera are great artistic martial arts. If you need artsy forms, do ITF Taekwondo after you get your acrobatics down. Some of those upper-level black belt forms I’m learning require a lot of flexibililty and some acrobatics.

Here is a quote from their site: The martial arm is the just martial arts combat dummy that contributes you finalize realism in the whole of your martial arts training. The martial arm moves and twists up, down, left and right similar to a true training partner might.
