“Pointe” is the most advanced form of Ballet and can therefore only be taught to
and performed by the more advanced dancers. The distinguishing characteristic of this
style is that the dancers perform all the steps completely on the tips of their toes, which can be painful for the performer, but appears lovely and graceful from the audience. Our “Pointe” class includes intensive, large amounts of barre work, ankle strengthening, center turn preparations, and patterns across the floor, both allegro and adagio combinations, and an extensive knowledge of the terminology.
