What a great dancing experience! The instructor Josie for beginner's salsa is amazing, kind, warm and encouraging, as well as patient and informative. Eddie taught me my very first salsa class and helped me to properly learn the foundation steps and was very informative and knowledgeable in knowing many other dance styles. Nikolai helped me register for the first class and was very kind, warm, friendly and accommodating. I felt very welcomed. I would highly recommend this dance studio to others! They also teach other styles of dance such as bachata, tango, swing dancing and more!

I’ve studied dancing at the Westchester studio for about 5 years and have definitely enjoyed every moment I’ve been there. The studio is spacious, clean and well maintained but most of all, every individual instructor is a top-of-the line Pro! Each one has obtained a high level of excellence in his career and, yet, with extensive background and experiences, they generously give of their time, patience, and energy in order to help each student attain his own goal. If you are an individual or couple, seeking to enhance your passions, Danznik studio is the place to go. You will not regret your decision and may even become addicted to dancing!

My instructor shares his immense knowledge in <a href="https://www.danznik.com/studios/westchester/ballroom-dance/"American Smooth with passion and technical clarity. He dissects every part of arm styling, body activation and footwork in a relatable manner so that we can fully experience the essence of this dance. My husband and I take private lessons with him individually and as a couple. We improved exponentially in months!

Lubo’s class is always fun, engaging and challenging. He gives each student personal attention and corrections which is very rare in a group class. He teaches technique but will also make sure students get to do a fun routine to dance it out. Highly recommend!

I have been studying smooth ballroom technique, and receiving coaching towards my ability to compete. I absolutely love the training that I'm getting the opportunities to grow artistically. The studio is beautiful and the atmosphere is very professional.

We didn't have any prior dancing experience and wanted to do more than just sway for our first dance at our wedding. Danznik matched us with our instructor Anton who was awesome! He's an extremely talented dancer and a kind and patient teacher who taught us the basics and put together a nice choreographed number for our song. We had a lot of fun practicing, and he even provided feedback on the practice videos we sent him. He made us feel at ease to be on the center stage and most importantly have fun! The studio is also beautiful. Highly recommend Danznik and Anton!
