Pointe Prep (11 - 17.9yrs)

By Mellor Performing Arts School

At a glance

In this class we will be focusing heavily on alignment, proper weight placement over the big toe, and calf endurance without the added stress of the pointe shoe itself. We will be doing a range of exercises including floor, barre and centre practice in order to strengthen the intrinsic muscles of the feet and ankles, core stability, and foot articulation required to safely transition into pointe shoes. We will use techniques including therabands.
