About this studio
Christian dance education, sharing the gospel through dance since 1994.
Dove Dance has offered quality Christian dance training to Oklahoma families since 1988, with two locations serving the OKC metro area — including this location in Mustang. Founded by Daphne Cooper — Mrs. Oklahoma 2001 and a 2008 Oklahoma Woman Honoree — Dove Dance is the only Christian dance school in Oklahoma led by a Dance Masters of America certified professional, offering classical ballet, jazz, lyrical, pointe, and acrobatics for dancers ages 2.5 through 18.
Dove Dance is home to the most certified Dance Masters of America instructors in the state, and Daphne's students have earned 45 state overall DMA championships. The studio has been featured nationally in Dance Magazine, Dance Spirit, and Dance Teacher, voted Readers Choice in 2021 and 2022, and Daphne has choreographed professionally for Grammy Award-winning musician Dino Kartsonakis's Branson show.

Our Faculty
Dove Dance is led by Director Daphne Cooper, who has taught dance since founding the studio in 1988 and is certified through Dance Masters of America, where she has served on the Oklahoma state board. She has been a guest master teacher at the American College Dance Festival and has taught at the university level. Daphne's students have gone on to dance professionally in Branson, join prestigious ballet companies, earn college dance scholarships, and hold state titles in the Miss Teen America and Miss Deaf America systems — a testament to having the most certified DMA faculty in Oklahoma.
