Summer 2026 marks the next summer of RMDT's New York Experience. RMDT's New York Experience is NOT a nationwide dance camp or conference; this program is offered and uniquely planned every other year by RMDT for our dancers who have reached a level of maturity, technique, and training in order to participate in the classes at these prestigious studios.  It is designed to give students the opportunity to experience dance and theatre in a way that is just not possible in Cody, Wyoming and is above and beyond any programed dance camp or workshop.

While in New York, participants gain pre-professional experience by taking three to four, 1.5 hour dance classes a day from world-renowned teachers, trainers, and professionals in several of the world’s top dance training facilities such as:

• Broadway Dance Center
• Steps on Broadway
• Alvin Ailey
• Peridance 

During these classes, they learn skills in "up and coming" dance forms and new steps in the styles they are already studying which keeps our dancers’ training current and competitive. Unique classes broaden their horizons by receiving exposure to other fields of dance and theatre such as training in stage combat & stage makeup. They also have the opportunity to participate in Broadway classrooms where they learn choreography from professionals ON Broadway.
