Event Details
This is a 30-minute class following ballet technique class focused on building the strength, alignment, and awareness required for pointe work.
Exercises will be slow and repetitive, focusing on strengthening the intrinsic muscles of the feet, developing articulation, and building whole-body proprioception. This class will focus on understanding anatomy, developing the muscles of the feet and core, and preparing a dancer for pointe work.
Participating in pointe/pre-pointe classes has numerous benefits for dancers and athletes of all disciplines, whether they aim to one day dance en pointe or not. Everyone can benefit from strengthening the feet, ankles, and core.
For beginner and novice dancers, this class is taken on flat (i.e., not wearing pointe shoes). Intermediate and advanced dancers with experience in pointe work and under the direction of a qualified ballet teacher are welcome to wear their pointe shoes, but may be asked to remove them depending on the teacher’s evaluation.
Pointe/pre-pointe cannot be taken individually; you must take open ballet prior to pointe/pre-pointe to ensure that you are adequately warmed up.
