Best Dance schools in NEW YORK CITY

Alison Cook Beatty Dance performed in APAP in 2013 and 2018, as well having our New York Season in both the Fall and Spring of 2018. We were so happy with Peridance we will be having our 2019 New York Fall Season, two weekend run, this November 1st, 2nd, 8th, and 9th with guest choreographers! We highly recommend the theater. The staff at Peridance is outstanding. The location couldn’t get any better, the lighting plot is absolutely beautiful which aids in a great video production. Our audience members gave wonderful feedback in terms of the comfort of the house and seating. As well as the dancers themselves enjoyed performing on the beautiful stage. We highly recommend renting the theater at Peridance for a performance, and the best thing is the price. For the quality they provide compared to other Manhattan theaters it is a great deal. It is a joy that they provide a space for dancers to perform in this way. Thank you Peridance!

Fred Astaire Downtown has brought me nothing but joy and happiness this year! Besides incredible instructors, the community radiates creativity and enthusiasm. They have guided my journey from a complete beginner in Ballroom to performance and competition in a few months!

I've been taking classes for about 4 months now, in Level 2 currently, and it's been such a fantastic experience. I've seen so much progress, and I'm excited to continue to grow as a dancer. You truly learn the fundamentals of salsa here, and every class builds upon the last. I was so nervous to begin, but everyone in the class is kind and welcoming. It's an environment where everyone comes to learn and have fun. A big shout-out to Celia -- she's incredibly patient and a great teacher!
