Welcome to Peridance!
Our rich diversity of classes and state-of-the-art new studios make Peridance Capezio Center an excellent choice for any group visiting New York. Peridance Capezio Center's Group Administrator will help you plan a fantastic and memorable dance experience-- one that best meets your needs and provides the challenge and excitement you are seeking for your group!!

What are our options as a group?

1. Participate in an Open Class from our Open Class Schedule. This allows your group to experience the local vibe, dancing side by side with both native and International students while learning from the best instructors teaching today.

2. Arrange a Private Class specifically designed for your group's level and needs. This provides your group the rare opportunity to receive personalized corrections, undivided attention, and an intimate working environment with some of the most in-demand teachers in today's dance scene. Private classes are offered in any of the disciplines currently offered in our schedule.

3. Plan a Group Lecture/Demonstration where your group can receive insider knowledge from reputable sources on some of today's hottest topics surrounding dance. Possible lecture ideas could include: Starting a Dance Company, Audition Basics, Surviving in New York: A Dancer's Guide, Health and Nutrition, A Short History of Modern Dance, and more.

4. Arrange a Corporate Event or Reception. Peridance Capezio Center's size and location make it a great venue to host a small to medium sized corporate event. With several spacious rooms, a luxury beaux-arts style building, and an easy-to-get-to location, Peridance is ideal for cocktail parties, presentations, and networking events for your company. You can see floor plans of our studios here.

What's in the neighborhood?

Peridance is located in a great neighborhood just one block south of Union Square -- one of the most popular destinations for travelers and locals alike. Union Square is home to over 1,500 well known clothing chains, fashion boutiques, famous restaurants, grocery stores, and cafes.
