A Note From Gina Tate,
Executive Director
All thanks and honor be to GOD our father who has instilled a vision in me and has trusted me to go forth with it!
Our goal at THE POINTE! is to offer the finest dance education to students of all ages. Some of our students have a serious interest in the art form and hope to make it their profession one day while others simply find it an enjoyable activity. We strive to encourage each student to "RISE". Our focus is to bring out the best in every student no matter what age. We offer a variety of dance opportunities and set realistic and age appropriate expectations that will help nurture a genuine love of the art form. At THE POINTE! we help to build healthy bodies and minds, greater self-esteem, poise, motivation and dedication in a safe and stress free learning environment.
With each new year we empower our dancers to grow stronger as our students are consistently soaring and striving for excellence from age 2 and beyond! Bless all who have contributed to our success at 'THE POINTE! We will continue to lift each other up, grow through technique, and embrace our GOD given ability to "RELEVE' " To The Top!!
