Pre- Pointe

About this event

Ages: By Placement (typically 10–14) Pre-Pointe is designed for ballet students preparing to begin pointe work. This class focuses on developing the strength, alignment, flexibility, and technical precision necessary for safe and successful pointe training. Through targeted exercises at the barre and center, dancers will strengthen their feet, ankles, legs, and core while reinforcing proper ballet technique, balance, turnout, and body awareness. Students will also learn about pointe shoe readiness, injury prevention, and the discipline required for dancing en pointe. Pre-Pointe is not performed in pointe shoes. Instead, dancers build the physical foundation needed to transition safely into pointe work when they are ready.
