About NMDT

The NMDT School and its faculty focus on proper, professional and safe training, enhancing lives through the art of dance. As the student grows and progresses, dance becomes an integral part of their lives, promoting health and well-being, discipline, structure, a healthy competitive spirit, and the important elements of team work. Classes are offered on a year round basis and the studio features a “sprung floor” to enhance the dancer’s daily performance and protect against injury to the lower legs and feet.
