History

Established in 1992.

by Margaret Tapogna Gatzonis, Danceworks Dance Center quickly became one of the leading artistic and creative dance education centers in the City of New York for its time. Students of Danceworks have been accepted into specialized school programs, including Mark Twain Jr. High School, LaGuardia High School and numerous college programs with concentrations in dance and the arts. Former students and Danceworks’ Alumni have transitioned into professional careers appearing in film, TV, Broadway and gracing concert stages across the U.S. as well as overseas.

In 2005 Danceworks was named one of the «Top 50 Studios On The Move» by Dance Spirit Magazine. In 2008, after 16 years as head of the organization, Margaret decided to embark on a new path leaving the studio in the hands of Fallon Preziotti White, a longtime member of Danceworks and a graduate of LaGuardia HS.
