Pointe Workshop: Foundations in Pointe, A 4-Week Progressive Workshop for Beginning Pointe Dancers

There's nothing quite like taking your first steps en pointe, and this is our first workshop designed to make sure those steps are safe, strong, and supported. Over four weeks, dancers will build the foundational skills needed to begin or further their pointe journey with confidence, proper technique, and encouragement.

This workshop is perfect for first-time pointe dancers or those in the early stages of their pointe work who are ready to progress with intention and structure.

• • • What to expect: Each week, participants will join the Intermediate Ballet class followed immediately by a focused Pointe session, taught by Claudia Kuwana: 
      • Tuesday | 10:00 – 11:30 AM,  Intermediate Ballet Class (required)
      • Tuesday | 11:30 AM – 12:15 PM, Pointe Class (45 minutes)
    • Cost: $155 for the full 4-week workshop (includes both the ballet and pointe sessions each week)
    • Dates: April 28, 2026 - May 19, 2026

Workshop Policies

• • Enrollment & Commitment: This workshop is a 4-week commitment. Registration is not complete until full payment is received. By enrolling, you are reserving a spot for all four sessions.
  • Prerequisite: Dancers must be cleared to begin pointe work and must have pointe shoes before the first class. If you are unsure whether you are ready, please contact us before registering.
  • Attendance: Because this workshop is progressive, each class builds on the last, consistent attendance is strongly encouraged. Missed classes cannot be made up or prorated.
