Lyrical/Jazz 1
In this exciting class, students will be introduced to the basic technique of jazz mixed with various elements of ballet training! Lyrical dance is a combination of ballet and jazz, which creates a beautiful fusion of powerful movements tempered with the grace of ballet. This is a highly expressive dance style usually performed to music with lyrics (hence the term "lyrical") that is both bold and beautiful, and one of the favorites among many young dancers due to its freedom of movement. Because the warm-ups and across the floor combinations in class are more jazz-influenced, taking a ballet class alongside this style is highly encouraged in order to ensure that all dancers receive the proper training in a classical dance form that will enhance their technique, strength and flexibility. We would love to have you join us!

Pre-Pointe & Pointe Technique
Our Pre-pointe and Pointe Technique class is for our students who have already mastered the basics of ballet and are moving forward with more advanced technique. Students must be approved to attend this class by the director and a co-requisite of a ballet class is required.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Pre-Pointe does not guarantee an admission to pointe. Admission to pointe is based solely upon demonstration of proper preparation. Pre-pointe is focused on training the proper muscles for pointe. One of the most important factors for admission to pointe is development of foot/ankle strength. Dancers grow and mature at different rates and have different foot and bone structures. Pre-pointe provides professional and specific exercises to maximize likelihood of admission to pointe. Pointe is the most difficult and serious of all of the dance forms offered at Sanctuary Dance Academy. Dancers must be evaluated for pointe.
