Meet the people behind Cultivate. ❤️✨

The teachers, artists, mentors + humans who make Cultivate Dance Collaborative what it is.

Each member of our staff brings something completely different into the studio — their own movement background, teaching style, personality, and passion — but we all share one goal: creating a place where dancers feel challenged, supported, inspired, and free to be exactly who they are.

We’re so lucky to have this team shaping the next generation of dancers. 🫶

Come meet the Cultivate crew!

So… what exactly IS Cultivate? ❤️

Cultivate Dance Collaborative is a dance studio in Waconia, MN built around movement, creativity, connection, and helping dancers grow into exactly who they are.

We offer dance education for dancers of all ages and experience levels — from those taking their very first class to dancers looking for more advanced training and performance opportunities.

But Cultivate is about more than learning steps.

It’s a place to build confidence. Take creative risks. Discover your individual movement voice. Work hard. Make friends. Perform. Grow. And find a community where you belong.

We believe there isn’t just one way to be a dancer — and there isn’t just one path through dance. 🤍

Whether dance becomes a lifelong passion, a future career, or simply something your dancer LOVES doing each week, we want their time at Cultivate to mean something.

Come dance with us and see what Cultivate is all about. ❤️

What an unforgettable experience for our Continuum 5 dancers. 🤍

This weekend, our Continuum 5 students had the incredible opportunity to perform their recital piece at Dances at the Lakes.

Experiences like these remind our dancers that dance extends far beyond the walls of the studio. They had the chance to perform in a professional outdoor setting, connect with a vibrant community of artists, and experience the joy of sharing their artistry with new audiences.

We are so grateful to Dances at the Lakes (KASM Dance Collective ) for providing this opportunity and for helping ignite an even deeper love for dance in these young artists. We couldn’t be prouder of the way they represented Cultivate—with confidence, artistry, and heart.

Here’s to many more opportunities to grow, perform, and inspire. 🤍

☀️ Summer is more than a break—it’s an opportunity.

While the school year is filled with performances, rehearsals, and busy schedules, summer offers something different: the chance to slow down, focus on the fundamentals, and invest in your technique.

Watching our dancers in ballet this summer has been so rewarding. You can already see them growing stronger, becoming more confident, and refining the little details that make such a big difference. Every plié, tendu, and port de bras is building the foundation for the dancer they’re becoming.

We’re so proud of the dancers who have chosen to continue training this summer. Their commitment today will show in everything they do tomorrow. 🤍

✨ Thinking about dancing with us this fall? We’d love to welcome you to our 2026–2027 season! Registration is always open, and it’s never too late to become part of our supportive, encouraging dance community. Whether you’re just beginning or looking to continue your training, there’s a place for you at Cultivate.

Come grow with us. 🌿
