The best dance studio in Manhattan where you can rent a shared or private space hourly. Great atmosphere, friendly people, beautiful space full of light.

Sonya is phenomenal, she’s able to break things down and teach it so smoothly and effortlessly. She is confident, precise and determined to teach me until I hit the mark! I feel confident she can teach me so much and such great technique!

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.

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!

I've been coming to Danznik to Sunday rounds to practice my dance routines, and it's been such an amazing experience. Nikolai is always welcoming, and he created a great atmosphere with friendly and supportive vibe for all dancers.
I've also met so many wonderful dance friends here, and the sense of community and support is truly special here!
Whether you're preparing for a comp, or just looking to refine your skills - it's a great place to train and grow :)

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!
