Ms Szot has lived in Wanaka for 18 months, after falling in love with the town while on holiday.
She will open the doors to her Dungarvon St premises, Studio K Dance, this weekend.
"It is a dream come true . . . something that I had neglected for so many years," she said this week.
The programme for the Studio K Dance celebration at 24 Dungarvon St begins at 11am today and 1pm tomorrow.
A performance by Dunedin fire dancing troupe Highly Flammable is at 7pm today, while a live performance of street funk, salsa, contemporary and flamenco dance is at 7pm tomorrow.
