• Lyrical Ballet is an interpretive style of ballet.
• Classical Ballet is a traditional and formal. Our Classical Ballet classes do not perform in the Recital.
• Pointe is the part of classical ballet technique that concerns pointe work, in which a ballet dancer supports all body weight on the tips of fully extended feet. Pointe work is performed while wearing pointe shoes, which employ structural reinforcing to distribute the dancer’s weight load throughout the foot, thus reducing the load on the toes enough to enable the dancer to support all body weight on fully vertical feet. Typically, years of training and practice are required to develop the strength and technique needed to perform pointe work. Advanced Classical Ballet, pre-pointe, and teacher recommendation are prerequisites for this class.
