Who we are
Dance Social Club (DSC) is a casual social club and creative outlet based in NYC. We aim to create a fun space for all to explore dance movements and experience creativity, confidence, and community. Think run club, but for dancing.
DSC started as a small gathering of friends who wanted a safe space to explore dance and have fun together. What began as one event has grown into a community of people who show up to move, laugh, and cheer each other on. DSC is hosted by friends, for friends.
Past attendees have stated that DSC has made them feel more joyful, connected, and proud that they tried something new. After attending our events, you are welcome to join our community group chat to stay connected.
There is no experience needed and no pressure here, just good energy!
Our Story
In July 2025, Nina hosted a small dance fundraiser for her friends and friends-of-friends after two different social circles asked her to show them some moves. As she began to collaborate with more local organizations, more and more people were interested in joining DSC. Thanks to Partiful, she has also been able to reach more people and grow DSC organically. By March 2026, after selling out a weekly DSC event 8 weeks in a row and receiving encouraging feedback from attendees, Nina decided to devote her full energy to growing DSC into the community it was already becoming.
This is for the dreamers.
