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

Danznik, Nikolai, and especially my ProAm Partner, Tatiana Banko have collectively re-inspired my love of dance and taken me to a whole new level. Technically excellent, patient, encouraging, the right balance of discipline and support, I offer my highest recommendations to anyone considering the social joy or the sport than is Ballroom 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!

Danznik is unique in that it genuinely feels like a place that could be your own for however long your feet are on the dance floor! The owner Nikolai and all of the staff are very pleasant, and I hope to keep dancing in this queer-friendly, professional, and fun space. Highly recommend the Borough Ball events!

Excellent ballroom dance studio. Extremely well-run and professional. Expert instructors with large and beautifully maintained dance floor. Second smaller dance studio on the ground floor, which is the perfect size for group classes and is equipped with state of the art audio visual equipment for attendance via Zoom. Reasonable and fair pricing for private and group classes with no requirement that students purchase packages, although available if interested in volume discounts. The studio has its own app, which you can download to book, purchase and generally oversee your account giving you first hand control of your studio experience right on your phone. In sum, Danznik Studios is a real gem that should not be overlooked for social and competitive ballroom dancing!!

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.
