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

I have been dancing with Randy Dias, an instructor at Danznik Studio in Hawthorne two years. What a great experience I am having with Randy at Danznik! The studio has a main floor which suits International Ballroom dancing perfectly. It’s almost as big as a competition floor. The space is open and airy. Windows and mirrors line the walls and the floor is always just right – not too slippery and not too sticky. Oh, and did I mention the ballet barre which is great for a pre dance stretch! Randy and I have grown into a steady partnership during the time that we have been dancing at Danznik. He’s an instructor who is a great dancer and a super teacher. I am improving my skills without the frustration so often felt when the learning experience isn’t clear. There is always a warm welcome from the other Danznik students. I have met people at the studio who are forever friends. We support and encourage each other. We’re interested in each other’s dance experience and lives in general. The atmosphere is light and caring. I’m happy.

Every time I walk around this place, I see things I only dreamed of. The energy Nikolai has carefully curated makes every dance better. Thank you for all the amazing things you think of.. from the easy to use sound systems to all the fresh flowers!

My husband and I took our wedding dance lessons here with Stephanie. She was amazing at highlighting our strengths and creating a unique and meaningful dance with us. We really enjoyed going to the studio each week, spending time together and working towards a goal. Stephanie was so supportive throughout the process, kept us accountable, and also took our input into consideration. Our dance turned out amazing, and we’ll always look fondly back on our time working with Stephanie!

I’ve been going to Danznik for the past 6 months to learn west coast swing and I love it. The teachers are all incredible (shout out Jes Ann for her Wednesday night classes!). They host amazing socials both on several days throughout the week, along with a couple bigger once a month socials. Highly recommended checking out House of West (especially on the first Wednesday of the month for J&J night) and Flow Fridays!

Boot camp was very beginner friendly, the teacher brook is very funny and personable and made what is always an awkward experience (a beginner in a physical activity not knowing what they are doing while having to hold hands and be up close with strangers) and enjoyable experience. I had a good time

Danznik is the go-to dance studio in this area of Westchester, and it continues to offer awesome facilities and classes.
