Dancers enrolled in this class are required to take at least 1.5 hours of ballet training per week besides the Pointe 1-Beginner class. Classes will be conducted in a professional manner-proper dance attire is enforced as hair should be securely placed in a bun, leotards, tights, and pointes shoes; no baggy clothes are permitted in class.
