This class is also perfect for retired professional dancers who aim to maintain and revive their skills.
Pre-point / Pointe work class
45- 60 minutes
It’s a dream for many adult students to progress to pointe. It certainly isn’t expected when joining an adult ballet class, but it’s a possibility for the most dedicated dancers. You should only consider pointework if you have been taking at least three ballet classes a week for at least two years. While young teens can expect to dance on pointe if they have been training for many years, adults have to remember that they are compensating for lost time. Our pre point classes focus on strengthening the ankles and proper alignment before one attempt going en-point. Our pointe work classes are ideal for experienced students to brush up their pointe work.
Adult Variation Class (Beginner-Intermediate / Advanced)

Besides our regular barre and centre work, each term centres on a specific iconic classical ballet variation, which will be improvised to suit the abilities of our intermediate dancers. This will help further develop your technical skills, musicality, and performance. You will be given the opportunity to perform the variation during an in-studio showcase as a solo or in a small group. Beginner-Intermediate Classes are suitable for adult dancers who have at least 1 year of regular ballet training. Pointe work dancers are welcome to learn the variation en pointe.
