DANCING ON POINTE
From an early age, ballet students dream of their first pointe shoes. Getting approval for dancing on pointe is an achievement and an exciting milestone in a ballet dancer's training.
Hosanna Dance Studio believes that proper fundamentals in ballet technique and proven strength in a dancer's body are of the utmost importance before approving a dancer to begin pointe work. For this reason, our ballet instructors provide level-appropriate evaluation of each individual student before giving approval to begin dancing on pointe.
Pointe work is not easy or always comfortable. Some of a dancer's success will be influenced by foot structure, but most influenced by their tenacity and work ethic.
The unique nature of pointe dancing means that it is vitally important that pointe shoes be fit precisely for each dancer. Unlike ballet slippers, pointe shoes have a variety of features that need to be custom-fit for each dancer: size, width, vamp length, box size, shank size, and shank length. The world of pointe shoes, for students and parents alike, is a whole new realm.
While regional dance stores certainly provide qualified pointe shoe fittings, we are honored to partner with Josephine Lee of ThePointeShop to offer annual in-studio fittings. Ms. Lee is the industry leader in professional pointe shoe fittings. Her expertise is widely known and respected in the ballet industry.
