At a Glance

Five days, one brilliant cohort

A small group of no more than 10 dancers, so every student receives personalised attention and meaningful, individual feedback throughout the week. Designed for dancers ages 6–14 or those currently studying Primary to Grade 3 ballet.

We discuss anatomy, physiology, biomechanics and neurodynamics throughout the week to ensure safe training and to support each dancer's development. The same care that underpins everything we do at En Pointe.

Dancers aged 8 and above are welcome to audition during the Summer School for our High-Performance Vocational Division. Please let us know in advance if your dancer would like to be considered.
