"Sur Les Pointes"

BALLET

Commonly referred to as the father of all dance forms, a strong basis in ballet is significant for all forms of dance. Ballet teaches a student co-ordination, strength, control and discipline. All of these skills are important for lifelong successes on and off the dance floor.

Traditionally, classes are taught in levels starting with Pre-ballet, beginner(i,ii,iii), elementary(i,ii,iii), intermediate(i,ii,iii) and finally after years of practice - advanced.

Thoughts of dancing "on your toes" immediately spring to mind when ballet class is mentioned. Toe dancing (sur les pointes) is a dream for many, but first a dancer must prepare.
