Beginning Pointe

Catalog description

Designed for female ballet students with at least 2 years of Ballet training and who are observed to be ready for pointe work. Students must be physiologically mature and have the proper alignment and strength to dance on Pointe. A text is used and at least two written examinations are given plus a performance final. Each student progresses at her own rate and is graded accordingly as all are different. The rule of thumb is a child should be at least 11-12 before Pointe is allowed.
