We found Danznik through a Google search just one month before our wedding, after deciding fairly last-minute that we wanted some dance skills and a short choreography… and we were scheduled for our first private lesson within 24 hours! Anton was fun, engaging, and skilled at tailoring his instruction to two people with totally different levels of experience (one of us had none 🙃). We had a perfect ~2 minute routine and a lot more ballroom knowledge after just four sessions, and all our guests LOVED our first dance!! Anton is an amazing teacher and we definitely recommend Danznik to any couple looking for a perfect wedding dance!

We took lessons at Danznik for our May 2022 wedding with Nikolai and it was an amazing experience! From the start, the whole Danznik team were so friendly and welcoming. Neither my husband nor I had any dancing experience, but we knew we wanted a dance to impress our family and friends at our wedding. Nikolai started with the basics for us - learning the basic box and steps. This was super helpful, and we left the first lesson surprised at how much we learned. Through our other 5 lessons, Nikolai choreographed the perfect dance for us. Simple and easy to remember, but with a handful of WOW moments with dips and ending with a lift! We had so much fun learning our dance with Nikolai. My husband didn’t know if he wanted to take lessons at the start, but it ended up being his favorite part of our wedding! We are so glad we went with Danznik and Nikolai to learn our first dance & highly recommend to all couples getting married!

Ruslan is an incredible teacher. He helped turn my partner and I with little to no dance ability into fantastic dancers for our wedding. He has an incredible gift for choreography and breaking things down for those new to dance. On top of that, he has a wonderful, charming demeanor and is a pleasure to work with. The studio is beautiful and clean. 10/10!

We can’t recommend Danznik enough! We worked with Alexei on a phenomenal wedding dance. He choreographed a dance to highlight our strengths and abilities. He worked through a process that allowed us to first get comfortable mastering the steps and then strung them together into a dance. We can’t wait to dance it at our wedding!

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!

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!!

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions About Wedding Dance Lessons

Should you get dance lessons for your wedding?
1 Answer
Taking dance lessons for your wedding can save time and reduce frustration. Professional instructors have years of experience adapting steps to suit your abilities and comfort level. Practicing in a studio helps you become comfortable dancing in front of others from day one—something self-learning online at home cannot provide due to lack of immediate feedback.

What dance should I learn for a wedding?
1 Answer
Choosing a wedding dance depends on both the genre and time signature of your song. If you have a specific song in mind, select a dance style that matches it. The waltz suits music in 3/4 time, while rumba, swing or foxtrot are popular choices for songs in 4/4 time.
