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

Great teachers and staff, nice space, fun place to learn to dance.

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.

Awesome class!!! My instructor explains everything so clearly even for a beginner like me, I feel like I make a lot of progress each time and I’m then able to use these moves in a social setting which makes it rewarding. I wish I could make it every week but definitely recommend to anyone who is interested in salsa/bachata.

My fiancee and I had a fantastic experience at Danznik. We booked 4 private sessions with Faustine to choreograph our first dance at our wedding, and we're so happy with how the routine came out. I had no experience with dance choreography before this, and she was a great teacher. She explained everything in a very easy to understand way, and choreographed a custom routine that fit our song. Would recommend!

We had an amazing time getting dance lessons from Danznik Studios to prepare us for our wedding. Our instructor Anton was amazing! He had been picked for us by the staff to be the best match for our first dance song, and he was completely involved and enthusiastic as he taught us dance moves catered to our song and venue. Practicing these joyous the dance moves at home was a daily relief from other wedding planning stress. The first dance was a hit, with several people telling us afterward how surprised they were by our dance. The studio is beautiful and spacious and there was never a time we didn't have a private room and the staff made us feel so welcomed. We could not recommend Anton and Danznik studios more for wedding dance planning!!

We took wedding dance lessons with Anton and he is genuinely the best! He was able to choreograph based on our music and include any moved I have seen and liked. I am so happy with how our first dance turned out and would recommend this studio to every couple!
