My daughter loves dance days at Miss Shelly's! This is our first year of dance and she started…read moreabout 6 months ago. Her class is pretty large and she's the youngest, and I'm always impressed with the three young women who are leading the class and their ability to remain calm and kind with a room full of high-energy 3-5 year old girls. My daughter is notoriously the one in the class who, when the kids do a little showcase for the families, is not dancing along with the group, and she's all good with it. She loves her teachers and has made a few friends. The clientele is a mixed bag of different walks of life, which I really like compared to some dance classes I went to as a child.

I walked in to ask one simple question about registering for adult jazz classes! Those two alone made me feel so welcomed and they had a genuine conversation with me asking about school, where I came from. I did dance for 11 years and I had to quit for 4 years due to certain circumstances. I have never been so excited to continue my dance career until I walked Into this dance studio!

This is the location for buying ballet tickets or picking up season tickets. The kickoff to the ballet season starts here with the Special K Creations. It was very intimate stage and seating, the seats provided great views. I loved watching the blend of new pieces, more contemporary ballet set to all kinds of beautiful and different music. It really show cased another side of ballet. I loved it and think I will bring my husband next year as he would enjoy the differences.

I would like to share my experience at "The Nutcracker" performance…read more First, this is a ballet it is not simply "The Nutcracker" nor a parody - it is Tchaikovsky's masterpiece known around the world for its music. However, you did not even put Tchaikovsky's name on the cover of the program, website, or billboards and mentioned his name only somewhere inside the program after the artistic manager, premiere sponsor, production team, etc. It looks not simply strange for art lovers - it looks inappropriate. Since the late 1960s, "The Nutcracker" has been danced by many ballet companies, especially in North America. Major American ballet companies generate around 40% of their annual ticket revenues from performances of this ballet. Its score has been used in several film adaptations of Hoffmann's story. I think at least these facts are enough to give tribute to Tchaikovsky's musical talent. Second, Chocolate (Spanish Dance), Coffee (Arabian Dance) Tea (Chinese Dance) were all performed in the costumes reflecting the nature of these dances and the composer's intent. However, Trepak (Russian Dance) instead of traditional Russian costumes was performed in golden driller costumes (yellow work costumes and hard hats). What is it if not erasing Russian culture or in the best case mocking Russian culture? It looks especially absurd given that Tchaikovsky is a great Russian composer. There are many things going on in politics in the modern world, but it cannot justify the vandalism of Russian culture. This is a few minute fragment of the Russian dance from "The Nutcracker" how it is supposed to look. https://youtu.be/1_vP7M0Cock?si=boHqAXKesfNVJTEO My husband, our friends and I left after the scene with the "Russian dance" in American oil worker costumes. We regularly attend symphony concerts, chamber music concerts, etc. Tulsa is a very culturally rich city. However, after what we saw at your performance, we will not be back to any Tulsa ballet performances. Perhaps, somebody from the "creative team" will decide to put clown outfits on the performers in "Dance of The Knights" from S. Prokofiev's ballet "Romeo and Juliet." ???!

I started attending Art of Dance because it was the first studio I found in Stillwater that…read morespecialized in classical ballet - after much searching. I stayed with Art of Dance because the studio also has great instructors for tap, jazz, contemporary and lyrical. I've grown more as a dancer, in the last year, than in my entire life as a dancer - and I've been dancing since I was 4! It really is like a family. Everyone is competing with themselves, as dancers, and not with one another. It's a great environment for learning, regardless of how old you are or how much experience you have.

Dancers are…read morestorytellers, entertainers, athletes, and ultimately the interpreters of this world for all time. The Art of Dance is a passion for life and a willingness to learn. Dance is something you have to give yourself over to completely, even if it is just for that one precious hour a week. Come dance with us! We have something for everyone, young and "old", new and experienced, in many, many styles of dance. It's only $50.00 to sign up and there are several discounts available! Come out and try a dance class with us!

This place is definitely the place to go to learn something new…read more They have amazing classes such as dancing, PiYo, and all sorts of things, quite a lot of art classes. Photography, art, dancing, voice lessons, acting/drama, and working out for some. To keep track of their classes and schedule they use a really awesome app called "MindBody Connect". They even have a summer workshop going on this summer which my little brother and one of my niece's are going to. They also have a ton of groups! Some of which are the Writer's Inspiration Group, Artist Support Group, and Writing Group. My mom goes to the PiYo classes and enjoys them a lot. I displayed my art there! That's right, you can display your art at this wonderful place! Just contact Byn, the owner and ask. My art is currently hanging on their walls as of 05/24/15 (it may not be there in a few weeks). The decor is beautiful, it has a kind of Tumblr feel to it, yet vintage in a way as well. Large crystals sit on unique tables in the cozy first room. Plenty of sitting space in the first room as well. Their dog wanders throughout their place, greeting customers and trying to even attempt to go home with them! The dog is really well minded, and it just will steal your heart as you go to your class(s)! This place can be difficult for some to find, but that's because it's in a interesting building behind another building. There is also a tree which can block the sign which is why some people have a hard time seeing it. My dad and I had no such trouble and parked in the large parking lot happily. The confusing thing about going in is that next to the door to their place is a door for another place, which I know nothing about and was closed when I went. I almost went in there though! Whoops! *chuckles* There is then a hallway inside from the first room which leads onto several other rooms, one is a office room, another a photograph room (where they take photos!) and another is a storage, and another a makeup room. But a little off of the first room is the room where you would learn dance and have exercise classes, big mirrors and nice floors for working out are in this room, even a SUPER tiny kitchen. Overall, the Always family is so kind and generous and definitely fun, don't be afraid to ask them questions and figure out what you want to learn. I think they give such a needed addition to Tulsa by adding a place where all can learn, talk and have fun. Don't forget to check their site so you can see ALL the listed classes because they keep having more and more classes!

The parents aren't allowed to be in the room with them while they rehearse because they want the performance to be a surprise in the end.

If you have short errands to run or want to gather your thoughts, this is a perfect time to do so, other wise you're just sitting and waiting. After the class the teacher comes out and gives a brief review of how your child did that day. They are very polite and courteous.

The pools are virtually unusable. If you take a tour and they try to give you the line that the therapy pool is around 95 & the regular pool is about 86, DO NOT BELIEVE THEM! The heaters have been broken for MONTHS now. That's right, I said months. The temp today was 76 in the therapy pool & 78 in the main. Even when they were working, the temps would range wildly. They were never the same temp twice. The therapy pool could be 83 one day and over 100 a few days later. They. Just. Don't. Care. They refused to add proper chlorine to the pools for months as well. It took repeated calls to the health dept to get them to FORCE them to get it up to level. "Oh, how bad could it be?" you ask. The proper level is supposed to be 7.2. The therapy pool was .2 to .5. For MONTHS. That is very dangerous & unhealthy. They were cloudy all the time and smelled. The saunas were down for a long time. I was told there was black mold in the ladies locker room one for a very long time, but even at that, they refused to fix it. Or CLOSE IT! Even with black mold. The showers were broken for over a year before they got fixed despite dozens of requests to fix them. It was not a complex plumbing issue, it was REPLACING A SHOWER HEAD!! Get the picture? They care about your money, not you. Then they will not spend any to keep things fixed. They will tell you anything to get you to sign up, but if you ever have a problem, you are all the way out of luck. So if you believe the "C" in "YMCA" stands for "Christian" - nope. WWJD? Care enough about people to keep things fixed.

I've been pretty busy these last few months, and haven't had as much time to come here as much, but…read moreI've got a bit more free time again and have made my way back. The main difference that I've noticed (and I guess the reason for this update) is that the staff doesn't seem as interactive. And I kind of mean this in a good way? They used to have workers stand in the entryway upstairs, at the top of the straits landing between the two sections of workout equipment. This always felt a little awkward to me, like they were just watching everyone exercise (which was their job, so they were) and it was probably weird (and super boring!) for them too! It was nice that they were more available for any questions/ issues that way though. Now I'm not sure where they are? So maybe something between those two ways would be good... I'll also say that a few months ago, the staff was always super welcoming when coming in and leaving the building. Recently, I haven't really seen as much of that. Honestly I'm not sure if I miss that, or if I'm cool with just being able to walk in and just kind of stay to myself and go on with my way lol. I guess again, maybe something in between would be good. I think maybe one reason for this is that everyone knows how to use their cards or their phones to check themselves in, so there's less of a need to have someone right there at the door all the time, to be fair. Not gonna change my star rating even though there are some changes, just because I feel like the differences are more neutral in my eyes. Not necessarily better, or worse, just differences! I just wonder if these were intentional changes or not...?
