Please list any pre-exsisting conditions including, but not limited to, tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, arthritis, back or hip issues. *

I understand that I will be chosen for a pointe work based on an evaluation of my performance in front of professional dance educators. *

I understand that being chosen for pointe work is not guaranteed and that I could be asked to work on some specific skills before being re-evaluated in the future. *

I understand that if I am chosen for pointe work there will be additional financial obligations associated with the cost of my pointe shoes and related tools, additional required class time, and additional required training at home. *

I understand that more than 2 consecutive absences in a weekly ballet class may prevent me from wearing my pointe shoes in class upon returning from my absences. *

I understand that pointe shoe purchasing guidelines are mandatory and in the interest of protecting my growing body from short term injury and long term damage. *

I agree to be professionally fitted for pointe shoes at least every 6 months for the duration of my time en pointe to accommodate my changing body. Proper shoe fit is directly correlated with problems en pointe/injury. *

I understand that I may only order pointe shoes online if I am ordering the exact same pair of pointe shoes currently on my feet, that I have been professionally fitted for in the last 6 months. *

I agree to purchase the appropriate padding/ protective tools for my toes. *

I agree to learn how to sew my own pointe shoe ribbons and elastics. *

I agree to “break in” my pointe shoes only under the supervision of my teacher or director. *

I agree to purchase my own Theraband and perform the required exercises outside of class time a minimum of 2x a week. *

I agree to purchase and read The Pointe Book: Shoes, Training, Technique, 3rd Edition, written by Janice Barringer, and complete the take-home test online, prior to my pointe shoe evaluation. *

I agree to attend a weekly 30 minute pointe class every Wednesday from 8:00-8:30 pm. *

I agree to only wear my pointe shoes/stand en pointe in the presence of my teacher, director or a professional pointe shoe fitter for the first year I am en pointe. *

I understand that by dancing en pointe, I am exponentially increasing my risk of injury, including but not limited to, knee issues, back issues, hip issues, stress fractures, tendonitis, plantar fasciitis and bursitis. *

PARENT SIGNATURE: I agree to fully support my dancer in following all of the guidelines above, for her safety and education. *
