Summer can be a great time to focus on dance – there are fewer distractions, less homework and no recital choreography to remember. Refine your focus and set some summer goals. Want to master that pirouette? How about getting all the way down in those left splits? Even if it's as simple as building strength in your ankles or improving your turnout, summer is the perfect time to work toward those milestones. At Turning Pointe, we promote safety through ongoing training, cross training, and intentional periods of rest.

The Bible tells us that our bodies are temples. As dancers, they're also our tools for worship. Summer classes are a great time to focus on the care and maintenance of your temple, whether that's building strength in a Ballet class, re-energizing your heart in a Worship class, or unwinding after a long season with a simple technique or improv concept class. Even with summer camps, vacations and other obligations, being diligent with attendance in summer dance classes will give you a huge advantage when regular classes start back up. Retain muscle memory, minimize muscle soreness and chance for injury, increase flexibility, strength and technique so you don't miss a beat in September! "Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship."- Romans 12:1

New! CLASS DESCRIPTIONS

Vocal and Acting Showcase of Disney’s FINDING NEMO KIDS
Ages 8-14. Perform onstage! Students will learn foundational acting, theater and vocal skills as they prepare and perform the musical Finding Nemo Kids. This charming 30-minute musical, especially designed for young performers, is based on the 2003 Pixar film, Finding Nemo. No audition required to participate in the show, however space in class is limited. The Turning Pointe Showcase of Disney’s Finding Nemo Kids performance will be July 15 at CSCS. Class length: 2 hrs/week.

(Disney’s Finding Nemo KIDS is presented through special arrangement with and all materials are provided by Music Theatre International.)

Jumps and Turns
This class is a specialized class designed for dancers who want to improve and broaden their skills in the jumps and turns used in the TPD class curriculum. Not only is this a fun, fast paced class, but it also helps students become well rounded for the future.

Choreo and Combos
Does your student struggle with picking up choreography or combos quickly? Do they want to learn more about choreography concepts and how to put movement together that makes sense? This class is for you! Learn different combos and styles each week and work on observing for details and memorization!

Musical Theater Director’s Chair Class
Theater is a collaborative process. Successful productions rely on the creativity and collaboration of a team consisting of directors, choreographers, and designers (to name a few). In the summer-session directing class, students will have an opportunity to participate in this production side of theatre. Students will be split into production teams, and they will be given the opportunity to direct their peers in short scenes. At the end of the summer session, these student-led production teams will present their work on July 15th at CSCS.
