Social, Ballroom, Swing & Wedding Dance in NYC & Hawthorne, NY

I have enjoyed dancing at this studio for several years. The ballroom is very large and well maintained. All of the instructors are wonderful friendly professional dancers and you can find classes in almost any type of dance! The location is convenient near the Hawthorne train station and there are dance parties every Wednesday, and on some weekends. No partner necessary. All of the instructors are very patient and accommodating.

Went to a WCS dance called Flow Friday. It was well attended and the organizers Orian and Bekah, DJs, staff were awesome!

Amazing space! Good management and always great times at Danznik Studios! Highly recommended!!!

Danznik Studios is one of Manhattan's top-notch ballroom dancing studios. From the friendliness of the owners and front-desk staff to the thoughtful design and functionality of the studio space, even plenty of bathrooms, every visit feels like I'm at home. My partner and I attend their West Coast Swing social dances every week.

My wife and I took dance lessons with Stephanie to prepare for our wedding first dance, and it was one of the best decisions we made. Stephanie is incredibly patient and supportive, especially for beginners like us. She took the time to understand our skill level and comfort zone, and carefully choreographed a routine that felt natural while still looking elegant and impressive. What really stood out was her sense of aesthetics and creativity. She didn’t just teach us steps — she helped us create a performance that felt personal and meaningful. Throughout the process, she made learning enjoyable and stress-free, which was so important during the busy wedding planning period. Our first dance turned out beautifully, and we received so many compliments from our friends and family. It truly became one of the highlights of our wedding. We’re very grateful to Stephanie for her guidance and would highly recommend her to any couple preparing for their special day.

Stephanie was the best teacher ever! She was FUN, kind, patient, and direct with us. She gave us great feedback throughout our four lessons, helping us to improve with each visit. Also, it was just an awesome date night each week leading up to the wedding. We honestly looked forward to our dance lessons each week as a way to destress from all the wedding planning chaos. I could not recommend her more if you are wanting your dance to feel special and personalized.
