Repertory Dance Theatre

Founded in 1966 RDT (Repertory Dance Theatre) is the first successful modern dance repertory company in the nation dedicated to the creation, performance, perpetuation and appreciation of modern dance. RDT is passionate about arts in education and came to us to help create a resource library for K-12 teachers and facilitators.

Bright colors, fun photos, and gorgeous video make this site so special. We love their tagline of “Movement Based Arts Learning” that conveys how vital movement in the classroom is.

In-depth lesson plans with flexible formatting, a place for videos, and accompanying google docs is the true star of this website. A user-friendly filter that sorts by grade, subject, skills, and state standards make it easy for teachers to quickly find a relevant lesson for their classes. Embedded study guides offer teachers even more resources to bring dance into the classroom and free matinees allow students to participate in all facets of the program.

We love supporting local organizations that bring art and vibrancy to all sorts of communities and really value the work that RDT does to make Utah a beautiful and interesting place.

Get your groove on and check them out!
