Big Apple Ballroom

With over 20 years of teaching in NYC, we specialize in making unique, personalized dance experiences for everyone who walks through our door. Each and every person comes in with a unique set of desires, and our mission is to help them realize their vision even if that means simply finding it. That’s as true for a wedding couple as it is for our students who compete. We maintain our standards with a few guiding principles:

Creativity

Dancing is expression of the music with your movement and no two ways are exactly alike. We want you to have an individual connection to whatever music you are dancing to.

Individuality

We work with you to craft a vision of the experience you’d like to have with dancing, whether that means getting ready for an event or developing your skills for performance or competition.

Authenticity

Each dance has a tradition, roots that make them what they are. We believe passionately in honoring and understanding those traditions from Mambo to traditional Ballroom dances to NY Hustle.

Quality

While our team members each have decades of experience we continue to develop a deeper understanding of dance and are committed to bringing that to you in a personal way.

I love to see students develop and get to experience greater depths of the art form of dance: whether that's a competitive student, a professional, or someone just dancing for fun
