News and Welcome

Please join us at our upcoming Dances!

As always, beginners are welcome! Please come as close to 7 as possible, as dances increase in difficulty as the event goes on.
***All of our dances have moved to a sliding scale: pay what you can from $5 to $25! Don’t let money stop you from dancing!***
* Your first dance as a new (or renewed) member is free! The minimum membership fee is $25, and additional donations are gratefully received!

Our Vision:

We are a friendly and inclusive community of motivated, talented, and dedicated dancers, musicians, callers and organizers.  We promote participatory and intergenerational American, English, and related traditional dance at various locales in Oklahoma.

Our Mission:

At our Scissortail dances, workshops and special events, we attract, welcome, and teach dancers, callers, musicians, and volunteers in order to grow a sustainable and vital dance community.
