Pre-Pointe focuses on building foot, ankle, and core strength that is necessary for safe beginning Pointe technique. It is taught in a highly individualized manner in order to meet the unique needs of all students. To ensure safety and strength-building, all who enroll in Pre-Pointe must also enroll in Ballet. Like all our classes, all genders and identities are welcome in Pre-Pointe.
Not sure if Pointe is your thing? No worries: the exercises in this class are great for developing strength and balance regardless of whether Pointe is your goal. All are welcome, and we assess all students carefully for safety and strength before giving the go-ahead for wearing Pointe shoes in class.
