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

Danznik Studios is one of Manhattan's top-notch ballroom dancing studios. From the friendliness of the owners and front-desk staff to the thoughtful design and functionality of the studio space, even plenty of bathrooms, every visit feels like I'm at home. My partner and I attend their West Coast Swing social dances every week.

I really like this dance studio. All instructors are professional and friendly. I had the chance to work with Lubomir, and he was fantastic. I look forward to dancing with you pretty soon. The staff are also dancers and very kind and friendly. They’re helpful and knowledgeable. Thanks, guys!! I’ll see you this Sunday :)

I absolutely love Danznik Studios. I’ve been dancing at the Hawthorne location for years. What keeps me coming back? The beautiful, huge dance floor kept in pristine condition. The wide selection of dance styles offered, which includes ballroom and Latin, social club dance styles, and Argentine Tango. The top level dance teachers, who nurture both beginning and advanced students, as well as top ProAm competitors. But what keeps me coming back most of all is the kind, caring attitude of owner Nikolai Shpakov and his staff. They work to create an atmosphere where every dancer is supported, and each student progresses at his or her own pace.

The class is fun and easy to follow! Lubomir makes sure to provide suggestions and corrections individually and the best part of we all have fun dancing - no partner needed! Lubomir skill level is exceptional!!!

I had my 40th birthday party at Danznik Studios and could not have asked for a better experience! The hall was impeccably decorated, the music tracks handpicked to my preferences and the food oh so delicious! I asked for several dance lessons for my guests and Alexei and Lola did a superb job teaching us how to waltz, swing, line dance and salsa. The dance studio is beautiful, and the owner Nikolai is responsive and accommodating. I highly recommend this place!

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!!
