Our daughter has been doing dance classes at Tippi toes for two years, and it has been wonderful…read more She loves it, the instructors are wonderful, and we love the way it is set up. The classes come to the kids at their schools, daycares, mothers-day-outs, or local community centers. For us, it requires almost no extra planning or shuffling. We just send dance clothes with her to her mothers-day-out on her class day, and her teachers get her changed. Classes are downstairs, and last for 45 minutes. If it required another schlep across town, I'm honestly not sure if I could have added it, with my work schedule and my already-busy moving of the children schedule. The way this is set up, she gets to do it, and we get a fun Saturday recital, once in the winter and once at the end of the year. For us, the cost is reasonable. It runs $50 a month, plus the price of the recital costumes, $50, twice per year. She loves it, and we love that she gets to do it, without making me more of a stressed-out mommy. I hope the people running it are making a million dollars because they're so sweet and doing such a good job with our kiddos.

The costumes were just beautiful. I couldn't get over the colors, my eyes were just drawn to the stage. The music was just the icing on the cake. I couldn't get enough. I shocked how my emotions can be portrayed with no words. I took my husband and he was surprised how much he enjoyed it as well. Next time will take my daughter too. I didn't realize that this was a performance for the whole family. The ballet is truly for all ages. We will definitely be at the next OKC Ballet production.

One unassuming Saturday, my three-year-old daughter looked at me and said I want to tap dance. As…read moresomeone who can barely two-step, I was intrigued and horrified at the same time by my child's a sudden interest in something other than cartoons and swimming. I thought this was a flight of fancy. It was not she was very insistent. However I knew she needed to learn how to dance before taking on tap shoes. But as any parent, I was thrilled that my child was interested in an activity. I took to the Internet and gathered a handful of dance studios. VDC was the first and last stop on our list. They offer A sample class. After that breakfast class I knew my daughter was very interested. The school runs parallel to the school year. It begins in August and runs until June with a grand finale. They have a wide variety of classesFrom beginner to expert, from ballet to hip-hop and tap. The staff is very knowledgeable, patient, and has a very good way with the little dancers. I was not sure how a teacher would handle a room full of three-year-olds. There is a waiting area in the front where you watch you're a little dancer on a TV. This allows you to commiserate and socialize with the other parents. And it allows your child to pay attention, as much as they can, without the distraction of their parent. Classes can be billed monthly or by monthly. It includes the costume for the final recital, our recital book T-shirt and classes. The June recital was a lot of fun. And a great way to see how are you a little dancer can progress into other classes. VDC is a great community. My daughter really enjoys it. And I feel that she is having a good time and learning a variety of skills in class. I can't wait to see where VDC takes her.

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.

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!

She has learned the value of hard work and working together as a group to create something. The families and staff are encouraging and kind with values that reflect our own. We feel our daughter is safe and receives positive instruction. There are little events throughout the year to encourage socialization and friendship among the students and lots of creative touches to make things fun like their Enchanted Forest theme for the younger kiddos. We are a Classical Ballet School family for life!

I've been enjoying the classes here! I started going right when they moved to the Automobile Alley…read morelocation which was a bit confusing at first, but it's fine now. Parking lot and the easiest entrance are both in the back of the building. They offer mostly hot yoga which was something I had been hesitant about in the past, but I really like the workout and the teachers I've had. They have a pretty regular schedule, so like Devin and Tailyn are some of my favorites, and you can really build a practice with a few teachers who know you if you go regularly. I also really like Rylie's barre classes. I went to BYB in Norman in 2019 and didn't super love the instructors and classes, but I really like the instructors here in OKC who are really lovely, caring, and motivating which makes all the difference with something as vulnerable as hot yoga, especially as someone who's never been really dedicated to her practice before. I will say that the studio isn't perfect, but they're all minor complaints. I know they just moved into it, but there's a slightly lifted plank in the floor that would be horrible to step on or have your mat on. Also, the heat lamps are really low, so it's killer if you end up underneath one (a great sweaty workout though if that's what you want). Finally, for the most part, the studio is private, but the door is clear glass, so I have seen people looking in a few times which is a little awkward. It's in a hallway, so people are passing by, and looking up to see someone looking at the class while you're doing downward facing dog isn't the best haha. I will say that I've never been in an overfull class in the two or three months I've been attending. I'm not sure what the cap is, but I've also always been able to book the classes I want, even 30 minutes before they start. I'm on the unlimited classes student deal for $100 a month, and it's a great motivation to put classes in my calendar and actually go. It's also helpful that it's not too far from my apartment, unlike a lot of the other exercise studios in the metro :) Thank you!

They have classes for kids and adults. The environment is super friendly and welcoming. They make you feel at home right away. The drop in rate is $12 or $40 a month. In addition to group classes, they also offer private lesson, wedding and quinceañera dances, event venue and floor space rental. Being centrally located, they have students from Norman, Newcastle, Moore, Oklahoma City, Edmond and surrounding areas.

We believe that music and dance can bring joy to everyday life, help with mild depression, help mend a broken heart, help people make friendship and love connections, help with physical fitness/weight loss, create a bond for parents & children, open minds to other cultures, and keep aging minds sharp and aging bodies agile. Learning to dance gives you a life skill that never expires. Couples who learn to dance together gain a whole new way to relate and communicate to each other. People who take dance classes gain a whole new realm of friends, social contacts, and business contacts. When was the last time you tried something for the first time?! It's never too late to try!
