Manage episode 298896423 series 2964945
Lisa Howell discusses readiness for pointe, and training pointe work, in today's episode of SciDance. We look at what influences when dancers begin pointe work, the ideal pre pointe dancer, indicators of readiness for pointe, as well as risks associated with starting pointe too early. This episode also covers psychological maturity as a factor in beginning pointe work, pre pointe assessments, integrating pointe work into a dance school timetable, and the influence of social media on pointe in young dancers.
CODE: SciDance for 20% off all pointe products (excluding workshops).
