About Our School
En Pointe Academy Of Dance was opened in September 2022 with the aim of bringing classical ballet to the children of South Ribble.

We started with just 4 classes running on a Saturday and have since expanded to classes running 3 days a week with our new timetable having a whopping 14 classes catering for both children and now adults too!

Our students train under The IDTA syllabus in classical Ballet.
IDTA are our wonderful governing body who embody our values as a school.

We work cohesively with our sister school Timmy's Tots to offer classes suitable from 6 months upwards. Students often start their journey with us in our early years classes eventually progressing into the lower school.

Our aim as a school is to make ballet accessible to the masses, taking away barriers such as financial backing, gender or racial stereotypes & social stigma behind attending ballet.

Early Years Classes
Timmy's Tots has been established since 2018 offering fun, engaging and educational dance classes to children from 6 months to school starters.

Classes are split into the following age groups:
  • 6-18 months
  • 18 months-3 years
  • 3-5 years (school starters)
Students are placed into a class which suits their individual stage of development.

Each class follows the same structure of a warm welcome, fine and gross motor skills, props, imaginative sequence and teddy bears to finish.

This allows students to settle into the routine using the mastery approach to progress within class.
Students receive certificates at the end of each full term with personalised feedback to each student on their individual progress.

Class Duration 45 Minutes
