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!

I've been going to Danznik for the past 6 months to learn west coast swing and I love it. The teachers are all incredible (shout out Jes Ann for her Wednesday night classes!). They host amazing socials both on several days throughout the week, along with a couple bigger once a month socials. Highly recommended checking out House of West (especially on the first Wednesday of the month for J&J night) and Flow Fridays!

I started dancing WCS about 7 months ago, learning from Joe & Jes Ann. They are both great dancers and teachers in their unique ways. I have kept coming back and taking their lessons and group classes. The condition of the floor is very good. The space is sufficient for social parties. The staff is always friendly and resourceful. Best of all is the people I met here. Dancing is pure joy. You see smiles all the time.

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!
