From the reviews
We have absolutely loved our experience with Oklahoma Dance Center and their Oklahoma Youth Ballet program! Josh Brooksher and Savannah Lee are both incredibly talented and we’re so grateful that they are so generous when it comes to sharing their time and talents with our community and our children.
The best classical ballet program in the area. The instructors have actual backgrounds in pedagogy and extensive knowledge about all aspects of ballet. This is a safe, nurturing environment with caring staff as well- truly the whole package. The dancers have fun, but the instruction is top-notch.
Adult ballet at Oklahoma Youth Ballet
Oklahoma Youth Ballet runs classes for grown-ups — confirmed on their own site. If you've never taken ballet, or you're coming back to it after years away, this is for you — and a good studio genuinely welcomes a nervous first-timer. A few things worth asking before you go. First, which class to start in — look for one labeled "absolute beginner" or "adult beginner" rather than an open or "all levels" class, so you learn the fundamentals at the right pace. Second, drop-in or term — many adult programs let you pay per class to try it, then move to a term or monthly package once you're hooked. Third, what to wear — comfortable clothes you can move in, plus socks or bare feet, are plenty for a first class; you won't need a leotard or ballet shoes to walk in the door. It's never too late for first position.
Your first ballet class at Oklahoma Youth Ballet
Nervous about walking into your first class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects beginners, whether your dancer is five or you're returning at fifty. Here's what to know. What to wear: comfortable clothes you can move in, with socks or bare feet; a leotard and tights are nice if you have them, but not required, and pointe shoes are years down the road — never day one. What to expect: class usually starts at the barre with slow, simple movements to warm up, then moves to the center — follow along, copy the teacher, and don't worry about getting it "right" the first time. Arrive early: come 10–15 minutes ahead to change, find a spot, and let the teacher know it's a first class so they can keep an eye out. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
