preparing the dancer in body and spirit
to glorify God through artistic excellence
The dancer is so much more than a body in motion.
They have a heart and soul that can reflect the love and beauty of God.
“Turning Pointe School of Dance is a historic and vital part of the Holland, Michigan community. Through training, performances and community outreach programs, students at Turning Pointe are prepared not only in the art of dance, but with hearts for the local and greater community.”
Matthew Farmer, Dance Department Chair, Hope College
Turning Pointe School of Dance was founded in 1999 with two guiding principles: Christian faith development and dance excellence.
Turning Pointe has touched the lives of countless young men and women. For some students Turning Pointe is the first, or only, place they learn about Jesus Christ. Many of our students have used the discipline and skills gained through their dance training in the fields of professional dance, architecture, education, law, mathematics, and medicine. They have grown in their faith and learned to give testimony of God’s work in their lives by integrating their love for dance with their faith.
