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

We worked with Faustine for 4 sessions on first dance prep, and I cannot say enough positive things about the experience! She is an incredible teacher and super fun person, not to mention so talented at what she does! We came in with no experience and left with a choreographed dance that we feel excited about and comfortable with. She always took the time to answer any questions we would have along the way. 10/10 super fun experience - would recommend Faustine to anyone!

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.

Stephanie was an excellent instructor who went above and beyond to help us craft a beautiful wedding dance together (in a short timeframe and with an unexpected injury!) that we were so excited to perform. We would highly recommend her to anyone!

I had a hard time choosing and finding a place to do wedding dance lessons. So many places are so expensive or are unclear about their pricing structure. Danznik was upfront about everything and had the perfect package. Over 4 lessons we learned a full 2 minute dance. Our instructor catered the dance to our abilities and adjusted over time as she saw how we moved together. I would highly recommend for anyone looking to have a choreographed first dance!

Danznik Studios has been an incredible partner in launching and growing our Flow Fridays West Coast Swing social, helping establish it as one of the country's largest WCS social nights. It is important to us to build a social dance experience where first-timers feel comfortable, and the ambiance and layout of Danznik Studios plays a huge role in that. Thank you John & Nikolai!

As a ProAm dancer with over 20 years of experience, I can confidently say that Danznik is truly exceptional. I have never once considered changing studios because I have consistently found everything I need here: excellence in instruction, a family-like warmth, and a supportive community that lifts you up both on and off the dance floor. The coaching is world-class, the energy is inspiring, and the people make you feel at home from day one. After two decades in ProAm, that combination is rare—and incredibly special. I’m proud to be part of the Danznik family.
