Jorgen Dance: Pointe Shoe Clinic

Sign up for a Pointe Shoe Clinic with Ballet Jorgen and learn from professional ballet dancers all about pointe shoes!

Pointe shoes are one of the most exciting parts of a young dancer’s training. This workshop provides dancers the opportunity to hear from professionals about muscles, fatigue, preventing injuries, and more! This workshop will cover:

  • Choosing the right brand, size, shank, and vamp.
  • Adjusting shoes throughout your training
  • Where to sew ribbons and elastics?
  • How to manage blisters, nails, cracked heels
  • Decide what to wear inside your shoes

Come with your pointe shoes for hands-on instruction. Recommend signing up for the prior master class to accompany this workshop. The class will be held in the rehearsal hall of the Cowichan Performing Arts Centre from 7:30pm-8pm.

Use the Buy Tickets link to sign up, which will redirect you to the RecCowichan website for registration.
