Stephanie Shapiro - Owner and Teacher

Hi, there!
​My name is Stephanie, and I can't wait to meet you! I've been teaching private lessons since 2008 and have loved helping my students move and feel good about what they are learning.  

Quick facts: Born in Park Ridge, IL. where dance started with ballet classes at the age of five, and in high school ballet slippers became Drill Team / Flag Corp boots only later to add Israeli folk dancing to my repertoire in Israel. I started partner dancing in the Spring of 2000 and after the pandemic I am happy to be teaching in several dance studios around times square area.

I am currently available to teach lessons in NYC. My energetic personality and teaching style is creative and fun while targeting my students’ goals.  I look forward to working with you soon!

HISTORY of the Business:

Dance Well NY was established in 2008!  I started teaching Hustle & Swing that spring after 8 years of training. Ballroom was added to my list of expertise with a teacher training program and tested in Medalist Exams of main figures.  I LOVE teaching.  My claim to success is teaching movement to newer dancers and wedding couples.  Many wedding couples continue on with private lessons for fun.  
Dance keeps you young, fit and happy! My goal is to share that with students, teaching them how to move confidently while enjoying themselves on the dance floor.
