Midwest Youth Dance Theatre began as a dance studio in September 1994, with a commitment to provide all students with high quality dance training matched to their level of commitment and ability.  Our student population includes girls and boys, and ranges in age from 3 to 63.

What we do:

At MYDT we focus on offering performance opportunities to our dancers.  Every year we produce two large performances: a spring show for all of our dancers, and a themed winter show offered to Level 3-6 dancers.

MYDT also attends one dance competition every year.  Group 3-8 classes participate at the discretion of their teachers.

Other past MYDT performance opportunities include two trips to perform at Walt Disney World in Florida, an appearance on the Fox 9 Morning News, charity events, and the Saint Paul Winter Carnival Talent Contest.

Our focus is on:

• Including all students without auditions

• Tasteful costumes and age appropriate choreography

• Providing classes to meet your needs from "just for fun" to preparation for a college dance major or a career in dance

• Providing performance opportunities including two major performances and one dance competition each year

We consider the staff and students a part of our family, and feel a great sense of community with the families who are our customers.
