CLASS PLACEMENT
Returning Students: The enrollment information you received via e-mail is marked with the correct level for your dancer(s).
New Students: Please contact me for placement advice. As always, I reserve the right to bump dancers to a higher level during the season, if needed.
The placement for your dancer is based on over 50 years of training and experience. Placing your dancer at the correct level and in the correct class is absolutely in their best interest and my top priority. I understand that as a dancer's level changes, it can be difficult to be separated from special friends however, your dancer's classmates will change many times during their dance career, and I guarantee that your dancer will have friends and fun in any and all classes at the Turning Pointe. We have awesome kids. As always, I am happy to discuss your dancer's progress with you.
