Social & Ballroom Dance in NYC & Westchester

Beautiful and spacious dance floor!

My friends and I had an incredible time at this dance studio. We were a group of friends visiting our one local friend who comes here every week. They asked if we could join them at this intro to West Coast Swing class before the actual social dance itself. We all signed up and even those who hate dancing had a good time. It was very beginner friendly. Like most social dance intro classes, we were separated into a group of leaders and a group of followers. Our instructors lead us through different steps and movements. As a follower, it was easy to just follow the different leaders' guidance. In this class, they also really leaned into talking with your dance partner. We did some quick icebreakers with new partners before dancing. It was never too awkward because we would switch to a new partner pretty frequently. Because we came with our local friend, it wasn't too tough to find the studio. We entered a building and took the elevator to the dance studio. I highly recommend checking out Danznik Studios if you're interested in learning West Coast Swing.

Ruslan is an incredible teacher. He helped turn my partner and I with little to no dance ability into fantastic dancers for our wedding. He has an incredible gift for choreography and breaking things down for those new to dance. On top of that, he has a wonderful, charming demeanor and is a pleasure to work with. The studio is beautiful and clean. 10/10!

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.

If you’re looking for a top-tier ballroom dance studio, Danznik Studios (Hawthorne and Manhattan) is the place to be. From the moment you walk into either studio the atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and full of energy. The instructors are not only highly skilled but also incredibly patient and passionate about dance, making lessons enjoyable for beginners and advanced dancers alike. I have been coming here since inception and can’t think of a better studio!

Lots of dancing and wonderful dance hosts.
