It's a shopping mall for dance!  There is truly something for everyone at the Dance Teacher Resource Expo presented by UDMA! Bring your entire staff and spend the weekend!

The UDMA Fashion Show is better than ever! Attendees can add the UDMA Fashion Show to any level ticket. Come see the newest costumes move under lights on stage. There is no better way to choose your costumes than at the UDMA Fashion Show, only at the New York City UDMA Dance Teacher Expo!

Come see the sparkle! The UDMA Dance Teacher Expos are your annual opportunity to shop the full collections of the major costume brands. Feel the quality, see the true colors and fabric movement before making your decisions. You'll feel confident you've made the right choices for your recital. While browsing, you'll discuss themes and make music decisions that elevate your performance vision and strengthen your studio. The collaborative decision making, and FUN, will amaze you!

At a UDMA Dance Teacher Expo, you'll learn about trip planning, recital ticketing, flooring, promotional items, photography, and more from the experts. Get your questions answered immediately by the pros who make it happen.

Make Memories in Dance

The UDMA Dance Teacher Expo is the show where studio owners and their staff plan together, shop together, network together, and laugh together. It's the one show where you'll see your favorite vendors year after year, and share with them your accomplishments, or let them know how they can help you succeed. It's a place for dinner with your staff, drinks with your friends, and memories that will last.
