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

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.

Quality of the dance floor is excellent and overall condition of the studio is the best in Westchester. Instructors are great and the dance socials are well attended and music are really great.

This is a friendly, warm, welcoming studio. Multiple ballrooms. Clean, well kept and organized. Sunday morning rounds with live DJ are a great chance to practice and improve on your dance.

Stephanie was our instructor for our wedding first dance and she was absolutely phenomenal to work with!! We didn't expect to have as much fun as we did, and the dance lessons were a really fun night activity for us. Steph was always so accommodating of our schedules. She also chose choreo that fit our personalities perfectly! We really loved our experience here and appreciated all the giggling and fun we had with Steph. She's so sweet and it's very clear she absolutely loves what she does.

Can't say enough wonderful things about Danznik. The space, the location, the staff -- all top notch! Nikolai has built a wonderful program right in the heart of the city. Most recently I worked with Gaby Cook (through Midtown Swings) to prepare for a ProAm competition and she was an absolutely perfect teacher and partner. Communication, skill, preparation, choreography -- impossible to have asked for anything more. Hands down the best studio in NYC!

My favorite place to do some latin dancing with incredibly nice and fun people.
