The community is so strong at DFF, and they value getting to know you as a person. I look forward to going to class each week. Some of my favs are Topher's Tuesday classes and Caroline's pro power jazz, and Tara's pro power hip hop, but honestly, I haven't tried a class I didn't LOVE!!

So. Much. Fun. I haven't been in a jazz class in 20 years so I was pretty nervous for my first one…read moreat DFF. Though I was pretty rusty, the atmosphere was inviting and encouraging. Tony is a great instructor! I also LOVE WERQ. Tara does not mess around and is so much fun. I haven't been able to go to a cardio dance class since before the pandemic so I have a lot of catching up to do. This is the perfect class to do that. It kicks my butt in a good way!

My fiancée and I have been doing dance lessons here for the past few months and Rachel, Aaron, Kaitlyn, and Sydney have been amazing with us! They have given us the confidence and encouragement to tackle our first dance for our wedding! We have loved every instructor and class we've taken!

I will say, though the playground is almost nonexistent, so this is not the best place to go with kids. Obviously not a problem for me, but for the little kids, I would go to a different park. Other than that, the park is very crowded and very nice.

If you know where to look, there are numerous off-road walking trails through the trees and brush. During the Christmas season, they reopen it for a drive-through Christmas lights exhibit. Personally, I find it nostalgic and beautiful, maybe even romantic, to walk through the fall or winter evening with a friend. It offers some of the most fantastic views in Kansas City. My favorite spot is to sneak to the top of the water fountain and light up a blunt!
