Pre-pointe ages 10 and up with at least 2 years of training at PDC

$60 per month or $600 per year


A one-hour class for dancers 10 and up who would like to improve their dance technique and be considered to go 'en pointe' which means wearing the shoes that allow a dancer to dance on their toes. We take going en pointe very seriously and are cautious with moving dancers into the pointe class, as moving up too early can do serious and sometimes permanent damage to growing bones.  Dancers may need to take the class for years before going into the pointe class.   Strength, control, foot mechanics and technical placement are what is considered.

 Dancers will get the class recommended to them when the class is available, and dancers must be enrolled in their combo class as well.
