Client Stories

I am beyond grateful for DanceWorks NYC! I recently completed my first season and the experience was exactly what I was missing in my life post college. DanceWorks has given me the opportunity and flexibility to continue what I love while meeting such a diverse group of talented individuals. Family and friends get to see the incredible show at the end, but it is everything that goes on behind the scenes that will keep me coming back!
— Kiara Brereton, Dancer
One of the best decisions I’ve made post-grad. DanceWorks allows you to continue dancing on your own time with an extremely flexible schedule, all leading up to a great performance at the end of the season. You’ll share a stage with great dancers and ultimately end each show with amazing friends.
— Sean Abrams, Choreographer & Dancer
I truly believe DanceWorks NYC has changed the way I experience New York and I’m so glad I had DanceWorks in my life when I moved here.
