The Arts Castle

WOW! What an amazing place!!I used to take yoga classes here with Kit Spahr who was a fantastic instructor with the most relaxing voice and demeanor ever. I would love to be more like her if I wasn't so much like me. Haha!While it was quite a way for me to drive (from Grandview), I started seeing it as my little escape. Given the nature of yoga, obviously no cell-phone are allowed so my connection to the outside world was nixed (happily) and while the trek through rush-hour traffic was tought, it was always well worth it in the end. While I didn't find anyone else taking the class particularly approachable or quick to befriend, in a weird way it was another (positive) element to my 'escape'. I didn't have to engage in surface conversation, make promises to call, or say goodbyes to anyone as I left. Easy in and out and feeling better than I did before. There were so many AWESOME classes offered at the Arts Castle aside from Yoga...jewelry making, wine tasting, puppetry, tai chi, music, Lapidary and more! I would take them all if I could afford it! This is a gorgeous little town, a gorgeous building (literally looks like a castle) and a great place to escape.

Awesome programs for kids. Loved the pee wee potters class with my 5 year old, cant wait to sign up for more. She also enjoyed a few ballet classes. Beautiful building with great staff.

Wonderful classes for children in theater, art, music and dance! The teachers are phenomenal and they create lifelong memories for the children and parents alike! I hope they will be around for years to come!

Lots of great programs and classes for every age with a very friendly staff. There isn't any other program like this in the city. I definitely recommend trying one of the classes offered!

Awesome programs for kids and adults! I've taken a few ceramics classes with adults and it was wonderful. The instructors are so helpful teaching all skill levels, from beginning to advanced. Very relaxing and was able to advance my skills with every class.
