This class, guided by Stephanie Petersen, builds on foundational pointe work and is well-suited for students who have already developed strength and stability at the barre. Exercises focus on ankle and metatarsal strength, refined foot and leg alignment, and precise weight transfers—key for safe and effective centrework.

Students are introduced to directional changes with en dehors and en dedans, as well as preparation for pirouettes en pointe. Emphasis is placed on placement, control, and fluid coordination, with options to adapt centrework based on individual readiness.

A closing recovery sequence promotes muscle release and supports long-term pointe development.
