The Pointe of Grace Syllabus

Pre-Dance / Kinder-Dance
little_girls_dance_classAt Pointe of Grace we offer an introduction to dance to children 3-4 years of age, called Pre-Dance. We also offer a similar program to children 4-5 years of age, called Kinder-Dance. These programs offer daytime classes. To see times consult our class schedule.

In these 45 minute classes we combine dance with other movement games to create a fun environment for youngsters getting their first exposure to dance. In this program the focus is placed on introduction to basic positions and movements and the development of an understanding of simple rhythms.

Ballet
At Pointe of Grace we teach and train under the Cecchetti Syllabus for Ballet. The Cecchetti Method of ballet is a style of classical, theatrical dance based on the teachings of the great Italian ballet master Enrico Cecchetti.
