Rockettes Conservatory is an invite-only, week-long intensive training program held at Radio City Music Hall each summer. The program provides pre-professional dancers with an advanced curriculum that emphasizes Rockettes Precision Dance Technique™ supported by a strong technical foundation in ballet, tap, and jazz, as well as the strength and stamina training needed to be a Rockette. As part of Conservatory, dancers also receive instruction in various dance styles from other renowned choreographers and acclaimed New York City dance organizations. Participating dancers may also be considered for additional Dancer Development Programming at Radio City Music Hall, including Rockettes Apprenticeship™ and Rockettes Winter Intensive.
Designed as an investment in promising dancers’ futures, there is no fee for invited dancers to attend Rockettes Conservatory.
