School

Minnesota Dance Theatre & School


MDT offers classes for all levels of ability, open to a range of ages, from preschool to adult. Central to our purpose is inspiring and challenging students to achieve their best.


Students in the MDT school are nurtured to reach their potential for artistry and self-confidence. Our dedicated faculty provides expert guidance for the student to grow both technically and artistically, not only to become a professional dancer, but also to cultivate the focus and self-discipline required for success in all areas of life.

School Divisions

If your child is new to MDT and would like to enter the Performing Arts Division (ages 8 to 18), please contact us at school@mndance.org and we can help determine the appropriate level placement. Younger students ages 4-8 registering for the Young Children’s Division, can register for classes according to age.
