Progressive Ballet Technique (PBT)

Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT) is an innovative body-conditioning and strengthening program that has been designed to enhance students’ technique by focussing on training the muscle memory required in each exercise in all forms of dance. It is a unique training system using ballet-technique specific exercises to train skill acquisition in a graded and progressive manner from junior through to advanced levels. PBT helps teachers around the world prepare their students to receive the strength they need to achieve their personal best.
The program helps with injury prevention and rehabilitation and enhances the ability of athletes to perform at their best. It can be difficult for students to feel which muscles initiate the correct alignment in training. However, with the use of an exercise ball, the students gain a great sense of posture and weight-placement whilst feeling each correct muscle group working throughout each exercise, which then stays with them when whilst performing in dance or their chosen field of sport
PBT focuses on core strength, weight placement and alignment of the body with a gradual approach of carefully designed exercises and repetitions of these exercises that trigger their muscle memory. The program is designed with safe dance methodology to promote a long, healthy career and is now being taught by over 4000+ certified teachers worldwide and over 3500 schools globally have added PBT classes in their curriculum for students.
PBT is not only a program to improve technique in ballet dancers, it is now being appreciated and incorporated in training by all forms of dancers, athletes, physiotherapists and even footballers!
For this class, students will be required to come with their own equipment that they can then practice at home with the skills they have learnt.

I have two daughters, Victoria and Valencia learning ballet at Turning Pointe. They have been with Turning Pointe since EY1. They love their... classes. I am so happy that they are with you. Since there was no end of year performance about a year or two ago, my husband was disappointed and told the girls to focus on studies. It broke my heart. I, being the mother, drove them every weekend for ballet lessons and brought them home too, for years. The girls and I were sad, but now, after a break of one year, we are back!!!🤗. I hope they learn well, and succeed💃🏻 The teachers have always been kind and loving to my girls.read more

I'm a Mum who used Turning Pointe for 14 years. My daughter did Ballet to Grade 6 and then 3 years of contemporary. Over the years she had a variety... of teachers and loved all of them. They were friendly, caring and always treated her as an individual. She also participated in the TP Youth Ballet productions which gave a whole different dimension to learning .... lots of hard work was involved but she loved the buzz and excitement of it all. If you're looking for a professional dance team, then I highly recommend Turning Pointe, you won't be disappointed.read more
