Welcome to Perfect Pointe’s 19th Annual Recitals!

This year, our staff chose "The Power of Dance" as our recital theme because we feel the power dance has in our lives daily, and we want to share that energy with all of you!

Dance has the power to build friendships. Dance has the power to convey feelings we might not be able to put into words. Dance has the power to tell all sorts of stories. Dance has the power to show us things about ourselves and each other that we might not otherwise ever discover. Dance has the power to facilitate belonging and self-expression, celebrate history and culture, and push boundaries and explore the future. Dance has the power to bring JOY and also hold heartache. Dance is powerful in so many ways, and each dance you see in our recitals this year is just one tiny, but powerful, example of the amazing Power of Dance! 💜

Enjoy the Show!
~ Miss Kendra, Mr. Chris, and the whole Perfect Pointe Team
