Level 2 - The Perfect Pointe System
Pointe Intensive for Dance Teachers and Health Professionals
Progressing onto pointe is one of the biggest rites of passage a young dancer faces, it is often a very exciting time. However, it is also very challenging. The excitement of that shiny new pair of shoes is often quickly soured with the onset of pain and blisters, but it does not have to be this way.
Assessing the individual dancer thoroughly before going on pointe is absolutely paramount to success en pointe and is slowly becoming more commonplace in dance schools around the world. Having a clear system that allows you to accurately identify areas of weakness, tightness and instability in a dancer allows us to give them specific exercises that will help optimise their function.
This course looks at how we can more effectively prepare young dancers and their parents for the process of preparing to go onto pointe. Adequate education well ahead of the final formal pointe screening will help avoid many broken hearts, as well as reducing the likelihood of injury.
About this course:
The Perfect Pointe System is designed for both dance teachers and therapists who work with dancers, or who want to provide pre-pointe screenings, and is divided into three main sections:
Preparation for pointe:
- How to curate your own pre-pointe preparation classes
- Curriculum development for more success en pointe
- Discussion of many complexed questions round preparing for pointe
- How to prepare both dancers and their parents for the process
Pre-pointe assessment, including:
- A comprehensive pre-pointe questionnaire
- Postural & functional assessments
- Detailed screening of feet, hips & core
- Assessment of the other factors that may affect pointe work
- Integration of the pre-pointe assessment into your studio
- How to screen students already on pointe to enhance technique
Starting en pointe:
- Final approval for progressing onto pointe
- Detailed pointe shoe fitting techniques
- Modification of pointe shoes for certain foot types
- Customisation of ribbon placement and elastics
- Preparatory exercises for the initial progression onto pointe
- Beginner pointe exercises
