A ballet class designed for adult dancers who are new to pointe, as well as those who are working towards pointe.
This class is designed for adult dancers who are new to pointe, as well as those returning to pointe who would like to rebuild their strength in a safe, guided environment.
Each class begins with focused foot and ankle conditioning, followed by slow, supported barre exercises with plenty of individual guidance. With a focus on safe progression, dancers will work on basic pointe exercises such as rises, relevés, échappés, and posé. Simple centre exercises may also be introduced after the barre work.
Prerequisite: You should have a minimum of a few years of ballet training and have been training at upper beginner level or higher for at least one year. And as always, your safety is our priority. Readiness for pointe work will need to be assessed. If you’re interested in joining but have not attended our pre-pointe workshop or do not have prior pointe experience, please contact us.
· Term enrolment (approx. 10 weeks): $250 · Same-day bundle term enrolment: $220 (for dancers already enrolled in the Monday Upper Beginner ballet class) · Single class: $32 · Trial: $10
