I'm an adult tap dancer and I've been to many dance schools in the past. Curio Dance is by far the…read morebest. I love the teaching style and choreography. Many dance schools have inappropriate choreography for their younger dancers. Not Curio. Their choreography is appropriate/top notch and their instruction allows each dancer to progress and perform at their personal best. The education and skill of the instructors is phenomenal. It's a pleasure to watch them dance. I highly recommend Curio Dance School for dancers both young and old.

Our kids attended Curio for several months, largely because our girls enjoyed dance and had friends…read morewho also attended. What we found interesting is that when they moved to their new space this past year, we were finally able to watch each dance session (which wasn't the case at their former studio). Our girls had their occasional "off days" as young children often times do. Yet the overt frustration and impatience on behalf of the staff became more and more apparent with each subsequent week. The tipping point is when one of our girls instructors (who happened to be the owner) literally raised her voice in anger and threatened not just our daughter, but any child that did not meet expectations. Specifically, any child whose shoelaces weren't properly tied (I wish I were exaggerating) were scolded and told laces will be cut off with a scissors if the parents don't do it themselves. Our child never wanted to go back after that day and we immediately withdrew her from the remaining calendar year. What's heartbreaking is, as a parent, you trust particular people with the wellbeing of your child (we did our research, we talked to other parents, etc) and despite a seemingly safe and trusting environment, Curio proved to just the opposite.

I recently saw thier recital as I knew someone who was goes there and I was disappointed in a few…read morethings. The show was 3 hours long for starters and had too many solos. The competition lines were great but the noncompeteing lines hardly knew their steps and looked all confused on stage. So if you want your kid to learn something but they aren't good enough for a competition line go to a studio that does not offer competition. This studio is a classic example of what happens when a school puts on their energy into competition lines and forgets about the other classes.

This is the only studio outside of downtown that I will actively be returning to for more classes. The adult options aren't great, but the up and coming girls I took class with are all very well-trained, very talented dancers.

The difference is night and day. Culture - The instructors at Lundstrum do a great job of instilling a culture of encouragement rather than competitiveness that filters down to the students. The older kids encourage and help the younger kids and everyone cheers for each other. Expertise - Every instructor is a trained professional in their field. Most of the younger instructors perform all around the Twin Cities and several instructors had careers on Broadway before working at Lundstrum. They challenge their students to really work on precision and technique and it really shows. My daughter's tap skills, for example, advanced more in her first year at Lundstrum than in four years at her previous studio. Scheduling - Group classes are scheduled so that age groups can have classes back-to-back. No driving to the dance studio five nights a week if your kid is taking six classes. This INCREDIBLY nice for busy families. Range of classes - If your kid loves the stage, it's not enough to just learn to dance, they have to do it all--singing, dancing, and acting. The main programs at Lundstrum do a great job of melding the three into a Broadway curriculum with expert instructors in each classroom. Clear costs - Unlike most dance studios, Lundstrum won't suprise you with a bunch of hidden costs. Many studios charge extra for approved rehearsal clothing, recital costumes, etc. In our daughter's last year at a different studio, we spent over $400 on costumes that she used once and then never wore again! All of that is included at Lundstrum.

Hopefully when I get old I can use this to guilt trip her and have her sneak booze for me at the retirement home :)
