Upcoming Events & Information
Turning Pointe Dance Studio is located in Hillcrest, Alberta. One of the 5 communities of the Crowsnest Pass. Our home is a 105-year-old historic building. Originally, the Burnett & Cruikshank Store. The store was built in 1913. In 1948 the store then became a grocery & dry foods store. The building has been Turning Pointe Dance Studios’ home for 14 years now.
Turning Pointe is an established dance studio with 22 years of operating in the Crowsnest Pass & 8 years in Pincher Creek. Our studio was excited to win the small business of the year award and strives for excellence in teaching & developing dancers in our communities & surrounding areas.
Turning Pointe offers three dance studios and classes in ballet, jazz, lyrical, hip hop, tap, pointe, acro, contemporary, pointe, & acting!
