Physicality, stamina, stability and strength will all be considered criteria. It is a requirement that all new pointe students register for a minimum of two Classical Ballet/PMT classes per week in order to keep up with the technical demands.
The UUC philosophy/programs have a very strong vision geared toward the training of your dancer. The first and foremost key is the setting in of a solid foundation right from the start with qualified instructors.
The program is based around The Paula Morgan Technique which is brilliant and exceptional to the training of any dancer (an asset).
This unique vision and training table is unparalleled to any other program on the market. It focuses on safe and healthy training in a fun environment at all levels, in all programs.
Your dancer will be continually presented with, encouraged and inspired to meet new challenges. In doing so he or she will gain a true sense of outstanding accomplishment and constant progress.
The program inspires dancers to motivate themselves and create real change. Boys and girls from 6 yrs and up will love it and they will never stop learning.
Class sizes are kept to a maximum of 15 students to provide the best possible learning environment and individual monitoring & attention.
Class consists of barre development work, centre floor exercises, and all aspects of ballet technique. Dancers will be taught strength, balance, discipline and grace along with learning a routine for competition.
Classes range from 30 minutes to 75 minutes. Students should wear a bodysuit and tights. Ballet skirts and shorts will be permitted. Pointe shoes required.
Pointe starts with pre-ballet, which is an introduction to ballet. Pointe work is available to students who show the physical strength needed, while meeting proper age requirements to safely execute this style of dance.
Ballet classes are offered by The Dance Theatre Performing Arts. The basis of all dance arts, this course will use the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) syllabus to develop strong technique while exploring the various styles of classical, character and contemporary ballet.
Advanced ballet dancers may go on to dance on pointe – a style of dance performed in pointe shoes on the tips of the toes. Our pointe program is by invitation only.
