Pointe Curriculum
Two levels of progressive pointe syllabi from pre-pointe to advanced, designed to supplement classical ballet training with clear structure, age-appropriate technique, and intentional strength-building.
Syllabi & Lesson Plans
The Pointe Curriculum is designed to help you teach confidently at every level without spending hours planning. It gives you a structured path from Pre-Pointe to Advanced Pointe, so your dancers build strong technique, stay engaged, and progress with intention year after year.
You'll be empowered to:
-
Teach level-specific progressions

Build technical and artistic excellence
-
Support dancers with different abilities
-
Keep classes fresh and organized

Reinforce terminology and proper alignment
-
Track and prepare dancers for growth
