Day in the life
From the barre to the stage.
A day at Pulse balances highly structured technical discipline in the morning with immersive, creative studio work in the afternoon. Here's what a peak day looks like.
Keep in mind the start and end times are yours to set. Whether your artist begins at 8:00 AM or eases in at 9:30 AM, and finishes at 2:00 PM or stays through 4:00 PM, you shape the day around your family.
