Ballet is one of our strongest areas. Margaret Nelson, who founded this school, was a professional ballerina performing throughout the country. All our teachers are ballet trained. Pointe work is a part of ballet and is gradually introduced at the intermediate level. Starting with just a few minutes of class work on pointe, the student gradually grows stronger until they are ready to take a full point class which still usually consists of a good portion of the class devoted to barre and some center work in flats and the balance of the class taken in toe shoes. Students should not attempt pointe work too young as their feet must be reasonably strong and well formed. The foot must have a good arch and placement. Some students may prefer not to do pointe work if their foot shape is not well suited for it.
Student photographs are one good way to evaluate a dance school. To see more pointe photographs of students trained exclusively at this school, please follow the links to our pointe photo album below.
