So I've been looking at a place to do Yoga in Tulsa so when I move there I can get back on track.  You know how it is when you move...sometimes you get lazy cause you keep unpacking or staring at boxes, then you get the excuse of well I don't know anyone here.  Then you find yourself eating a pan of brownies while your watching Family Guy, Weeds, or Sex in the City. 

So before that happens...again...I was wondering if you guys could tell me which Yoga studio is great.  I have been looking at Inner Peace Yoga studio since it is the closest one to where I will be living.  Anyone have any suggestions on studios?  I'm a college student so can't be too expensive, yoga studios are known to be more expensive then gyms. :P

Get a membership at Tulsa Community College - the entire summer is $25 - and includes free classes, including yoga.   

Thanks are you talking about the non-credit classes?  I would be a non-resident for a year and it looks like that would be around 200 per credit hour for me so that wouldn't be that feasible for me, and I am not finding what your talking about on the website.  Maybe I'm looking in the wrong area.  ???

Inner Peace is good as is the Yoga room on Brookside.

A friend of mine goes to Yoga on Thursdays (I think) at St. John's Episcopal church near 41st & Lewis.  She seems to like that one real well.

Either IP or YR will offer many different types of Yoga anywhere from newbie to very advanced and for athletes.  A great place to go for a Yoga retreat is the Canebrake Resort about 45 mins east of Tulsa.

FOTD is another Yogi, perhaps he will chime in with some recommendations.

Fellow Yogi's utilize the PM portion of TNF....

It's only fair in politics and love to be honestly open...

Cox has several options - in the "Free Zone" of On Demand - if you're a subscriber. Nice thing about it is you can do it at any hour... in your living room... and be snickered at by your son the whole time... and then go make yourself a margarita one room away.

Thanks but I won't have or need cable...I use hulu (free) with my PS3, and stream a lot of stuff off of my media server.  Plus I use netflix, since I watch a lot of season's and HD movies that way.  I'm a college student I cut a lot of costs down with entertainment (except gaming or music).  Usually only spend money on things for fitness/health, concerts, comedy clubs, or cause I'm bored LOL.

Thanks for the replies everyone I think I'll check out Inner Peace since they have $5 walk in classes so I won't have to buy a membership and I found out that the Tulsa Park systems offers A LOT of free or reduced fitness classes.  I need to find ways to make friends or not be bored moving out of state to a place with NO family or friends near by so I might have to check out the ceramic making class sounds pretty cool!

Thanks for all the suggestions  ;D

Hey OkieDiva...if you feel adventurous I found out the YWCA has strip aerobics/pole aerobics and there 5 bucks for the classes there held Sat morning.  I don't know if you've tried it before but its awesome!  Really keeps you toned (especially your core), or you can try belly dancing if you haven't done that yet...really focuses on core and hips  8)

Your son wouldn't be snickering at ya and you can have an excuse to get a Cosmo afterwards :D

I've yet to master the angel move like Kevin James LOL.

Is there a cover charge to watch?

Open tryouts at 'that establishment that used to be Molly Murphy's' happen usually Tuesday nights.

 ;D

I'm guessing Molly Murphy's is a strip joint?

 ;D Sorry I don't think men are allowed.

It used to be a Molly Murphy's restaurant.  Now it's a strip joint.

Wonder if I can wear a wig and funny nose/glasses while doing it?

That's hot

as long as the wig is red. I'm a sucker for redheads

Ooooooo, and if you squeeze the nose and it makes a beep noise.

no, no beeping noise from the nose, but maybe a few burgers... oh wait, forgot, I'm boycotting that fast food place

Huge shoes, little car, communicating with a horn...that's the stuff.

That sounds hot...I would pay to see Ronald McDonald strip...maybe even the Hamburgler....ohhh yeaaa!

And Mayor McCheese teaching Grimace a lesson with a riding crop in the back ground with "Nasty Girl" by Vanity on the speakers.

Oh yeah, I can smell the fries

Good golly, take a day off to move and look what happens, Bruno gets burglarized and members are talking about Hamburglar stripping.

I needed a few good laughs!
