As a dancer with no studio, finding affordable practice space is a common challenge. On average,…read moremost studios charge $30-60 an hour for renting a space. This is in addition to the challenge of scheduling times available for use. Fly Loft used to be ridiculously affordable in the past, having a special nonprofit rate of $15 per hour. Recently, they have had to increase their rates to $25 an hour which is still reasonable, but it's getting closer to what other for profit studios charge. I'm not sure what the reasoning behind the increase is but I'm thinking it might be pandemic or staff shortage related. Overall, Fly Loft has been such a life saver! All the staff I've had to deal with (3 different ones) are extremely friendly, attentive and accommodating. It's great to have a smooth process for scheduling recurring practices. Mallory is usually the one that is working when we use the space and she's super helpful, whether sharing the wi-fi password or opening the mirror curtains for us. In terms of the space, they have three rehearsal spaces available, all with sprung floors which offer increased support for joints and muscles and reduces fatigue in the legs when leaping/jumping, etc. They each have mirrors on the east wall, acoustic sound bars around the room and a speaker system with plug input. The only thing that varies between the spaces is size. The first space is the biggest one, with capacity for 150 people. The second space has a capacity for 120 people and the third space is the smallest with 80 max occupancy. They also have a conference room for up to 16 guests and other rental options like projectors, screens, tables, etc.

Fly Loft is an interesting space, because it is sort of multi-use, but in a strange way. I'm…read morepretty sure that this is where the Tulsa Symphony offices are, but also lots of people use Fly Loft for rehearsals or for an audition space. So I say it's "multipurpose in a weird way" because it's a place where people work, but that other people rent out to use too. If it were me working there, I'd probably get distracted by other people coming in to practice different stuff, but I guess it works. And to be fair, I'm sure the building is probably bigger than what I think it is/ what I've seen of it, because I've never really run into any of the office spaces/ Symphony workers before. Or maybe that's just because I've only been during non traditional working hours? I don't know, but long story short, it seemingly hasn't been an issue to have it be used for different purposes. I've been there for different things probably 4 or 5 times. I always think it's nice. When you walk in, there's a front desk, an elevator, and stairs. When you go up the stairs, it's kind of like a hallway that has a few different rooms. On the right side are the offices, which seem fairly small but I haven't actually looked inside, and on the left side are the more rehearsal space type rooms. I think there's only 2 or 3 of them, and I believe they are about the same size? Black dance floors with one wall as a full mirror. That's about it, so it's pretty basic/ simple in the rooms themselves, like most other similar spaces. One of the cool things to me about Fly Loft is that they have a little kitchen that you can (I think?) use. Well, I've never used it myself nor have I seen anyone else use it while I've been there, so maybe it's only for the people who actually work there, but I can't imagine that that's the case. I just think having that is a nice little extra element to have. It's almost kind of comforting to have it there. It makes it feel like a more "official" space too. The only real thing I don't like about Fly Loft is the parking situation. It's downtown (so, enough said!) and they don't really have their own lot, just a few spaces right out front, and even those I don't believe are free most of the time. Main reason for 4 stars instead of 5, though I know it's not really THEIR fault. It also isn't able to hold TONS of people (because other than the rooms it's kind of just a wide-ish hallway) but it's good for what it's good for. Overall a cool, in-the-city type of atmosphere, so I like having rehearsals here... again, I just wish I didn't have to stress about where to park!

There's never been an issue, even from people who rented out the place. I've seen this place be arranged so many different ways with decor. It's Downtown in the Guthrie Green area (technically the Tulsa Arts District). A bonus is that The Canopy is surrounded by restaurants, coffee shops, bakeries & much more. Everything is well within walking distance. Check out their rates + booking info on their website.

They've completely remodeled the space and made it bright and lively. It's located by Guthrie Green downtown, next to Valkyrie. The walls are white and there's a skylight on the tall ceiling that allows natural light to pour in. It is lovely! Its name comes from the fact that they have over 20 plants which serve as natural decoration. They definitely create a fresh and lively vibe. The capacity is 100 people depending on the room setup. They have long tables they can setup family style. The wood slatted folding chairs used for the event weren't the most comfortable/body-inclusive but they're cute. They partner with 21 1/2 Boutique Hotel to provide spouse suites for weddings and full kitchen. Outside catering and alcohol is allowed with a license. Overall, it's a cool space.

Run. Would never discuss price. We went to tour the venue and they "got locked in the refrigerator"…read moreand was unable to unlock the door to let us in. ( even though they had texted us they were on their way down to unlock the doors ) While we were there , they refused to discuss prices with us, and said they would email them, never emailed them, when I contacted them about the pricing, I was told the girl had been in a car accident and lost her phone??? we told them we had unlimited budget, but we still needed to discuss pricing. They just kept mailing us the same brochure with no prices on it. It got very frustrating. Plus, they only reached out to us after we had reached out to them several times. Place smelled like pot on top of everything else. They assured us when the air conditioner was on that the smell would go away. Beautiful venue, but sketchy business practices.

Back in the day, the Agora Event Center used to be Zanmai, an awesome sushi restaurant. Even though…read moreit's now gone, I am glad that such an amazing venue is still being utilized. Agora is one of my favorite views of downtown and a lot of people don't know about it! It is the perfect space to hold a variety of events. They have a pretty good parking available and an elevator if you need to bring a lot of stuff in. The space itself is very minimalist and elegant. It is also a very dynamic space because there are two different rooms inside where you could arrange for different purposes. The capacity is up to 450 guests for receptions or 300 for seated dinners (it is 10,000 square feet). They have staff that will help with event planning including food options and equipment needed. They also have licensed bartenders. You can easily schedule a tour online. A non-refundable deposit is required to reserve a date. The deposit is applied to the payment for the event. Space is reserved on a first-come, first-serve basis. Their catering is offered off-site to anyone looking to hire a caterer.

I chose this venue for my sister's baby shower, and unfortunately, our experience was very…read moredisappointing. When booking, we discussed renting the downstairs space because we had elderly and handicapped guests who could not easily access stairs. Based on the listing photos and our text conversation with the owner, we understood we were renting a different area than what we actually received. When we arrived, both my sister and I immediately realized the space was not what we had expected. The area we were given was the entryway/lobby area, not what we believed we had reserved based on the listing and our communications. When we expressed our concerns, the owner initially acknowledged there had been a misunderstanding regarding the space and even discussed refunding us before the event. However, with guests already traveling and arriving--including family from out of state--and less than two hours before the baby shower, canceling simply was not a realistic option. We chose to continue because we wanted my sister to have her baby shower, not because the issues had been resolved. Unfortunately, the room itself was only part of the problem. Our contract allowed us access before the event so we could decorate. However, when we arrived, the venue was still being cleaned. We were unable to begin decorating on time because the owners were still cleaning the rented space. They remained in the venue through the beginning of our event, further delaying setup and making preparations much more stressful than they should have been. The building was also very warm. The air conditioning had not been running before we arrived, and despite being turned on later, the room never cooled below 77°F during the event. With a room full of guests, it was noticeably uncomfortable. After the event, I reached out in hopes of finding a reasonable resolution. Rather than addressing my concerns about the delayed access, the venue not being event-ready, or the temperature, the conversation focused almost entirely on the room selection. The owner also listed several "upgrades" as compensation, including setting up tables and chairs, upgraded chairs, and access to a small private room typically used as a bridal suite. However, none of those were services we requested, and they did not address the actual issues we experienced. In fact, we had to rearrange the tables ourselves because the setup interfered with decorating. Guests began arriving while the owners were still on-site finishing the cleaning, which meant we never had the uninterrupted setup time we had reserved. What was especially frustrating was the inconsistency in communication. Initially, the owner acknowledged there had been a misunderstanding regarding the space. Later, she denied there had been any misunderstanding at all and instead stated it was entirely our fault. She also repeatedly claimed we had been offered an opportunity to tour the venue before booking, but after reviewing our text messages, I could not find any such offer before the event. This review is not because I wanted a larger room for a lower price. It is because I expected the venue I rented to be accurately represented, clean, ready at the agreed-upon time, and reasonably comfortable for my guests. Those expectations were not met. The baby shower itself turned out beautifully because our family worked hard to make the best of the situation, but the venue created unnecessary stress on what should have been a special day. I hope this feedback encourages improvements in communication, clearer descriptions of the rental spaces, and ensuring venues are completely cleaned and ready before renters arrive.

Finally, I was invited to a holiday celebration for a nonprofit that supports entrepreneurs. It is located a couple blocks north of 244. From the outside, it doesn't look like much, you can only see a generic metal building. Once inside though, it totally blew me away. It's such a spacious and elegant space, perfect for weddings or other special occasions. The room setup is versatile since there's so many options. For this event, it was great that there were tasting tables located all throughout the space because it made it feel full despite however many people there were. I believe the capacity is 200-230. Besides the main room, there's an upstairs area where I believe the dj was setup. They have vanity rooms, lighting, drapes, chairs, tables, etc. Any rentals must come from PartyPro. There's also a huge patio, making indoor/outdoor options available. There's a fully equipped kitchen but they allow outside vendors, requiring a specific insurance. If you want alcohol, they require security. In terms of pricing, it's $1,500 during the week and $2,500 on weekends. I wish they had different pricing for hours needed. Overall, a great venue option! Their staff speaks Spanish as well.
