Pointe: An extended and highly technical form of ballet for female dancers taught solely upon the recommendation of the pointe instructor.

Contemporary/Modern: Contemporary dance combines several styles of movements including ballet, concert jazz, ethnic and modern dance methods.

Students are guided through an extensive warm-up based on the foundations of ballet technique and modern methods and then are given several across the floor exercises to explore the freedom of movement in various dance styles. Focus points include the "contract and release" of the torso, the use of the whole body in movement, musicality and the exploration of movement.
