OUR CURRICULUM

New: THE PERFECT POINTE

We are so excited about the new addition to our curriculum, "The Perfect Pointe" System.

While our students have been resting this summer, the teachers and dance assistants at the Camano Dance Academy have been training hard in order to offer your students the best possible dance education!

We are so pleased to announce that beginning this year, we will be implementing a new training regimen in our classes. It is our goal to create the healthiest, happiest dancers - and it is very important to us that our dancers are trained in the safest possible manner. Therefore, we will be offering the Perfect Pointe System as part of our curriculum, designed by world-famous and renowned dance Physiotherapist, Lisa Howell.

CORRECT BODY ALIGNMENT

As far as I know, we are the only local school to invest in this program, and offer this amazingly effective training to our students. The training will take place in our normal classes, and our younger students will probably not be aware of it. However, our older students will notice an increased emphasis on correct body placement, strength building, and flexibility training. They will also be provided with workbooks, etc., to track their progress.

This instruction will allow our younger students to progress rapidly, while maintaining good health - and will allow our older students to achieve the competency level required for pointe earlier, and perform safely once en pointe.

MORE INFO FOR PARENTS

I would highly recommend downloading Lisa Howell's parent manual, which you can get for free at: http://www.theperfectpointebook.com/TheParentsManual/index.html. This will give you some added insight into many issues parents and dancers face, and will also give you additional information about the Perfect Pointe system.
We look forward to watching our students progress by leaps and bounds this year! Please let us know if you have questions about the above information.
