Dance Manhattan has one mission for dance classes offered at its NYC studios:

To provide the best possible atmosphere for learning and having fun. The objective is for each student to be inspired to grow, learn & express themselves creatively . . . making new friends in the process.

Our motto, "Don't talk to strangers, Dance with them!", explains why Dance Manhattan is a great place to meet new people and make new friends. What better way to get to know someone than by dancing with them? With or without a partner, come to Dance Manhattan where we invite people to learn to social dance and establish a connection with another person on the dance floor. Forget the stress and strain of everyday life..chat and dance in a casual atmosphere and make friends and partners to last a lifetime! From one-day crash courses that rotate partners to couples group classes to our FREE Guest Night, Dance Manhattan offers something for everyone, at every age!

Learning Environment in our Dance Classes & Lessons and at our Special Events :

Dance Manhattan is the ideal place in New York City to learn and perfect Social Ballroom, Swing, Argentine Tango and Latin dancing. Our instructors offer a full range of classes and host social dance parties and practices to foster social aspects of these dances. Our very popular weekly events include LUNA Tango Salon and Practica on Mondays (the longest running Tango Salon in NYC, hosted by Rebecca Shulman); Theme Fridays in Swing/Lindy, Salsa and Ballroom; and West Coast Swing Wednesdays.

Our instructors are the best of the best - not only wonderful teachers of dance but talented, experienced, award winning performers! You have seen them on Broadway, Off-Broadway, in films, in commercials, on tour, in music videos, and on the winner's platform at every major dance competition in the United States and abroad!
