POINTE
An advanced level in Ballet when women train with ballet pointe shoes. Emphasis is placed on detailed footwork that strengthens dancers’ ankles, metatarsals, and legs while stretching and increasing flexibility in the arches of the feet. Awareness of the body’s vertical axis increases with studying pointe. Students must be technically proficient in ballet and pass the Dreams Ballet Vocabulary Test.
