Dan Galiczynski is a gymnast and gym owner from Ivyland, Pennsylvania. He has competed in American Ninja Warrior for a total of seven seasons.

American Ninja Warrior 2
He first competed in American Ninja Warrior 2, where he couldn’t get up the Warped Wall in qualifying, thus not making it to the semi-final round.

American Ninja Warrior 3
In American Ninja Warrior 3, he made it through the first five obstacles, but history repeated itself where he couldn’t make it up the Warped Wall. Hence, he did not make the semi-finals again.

American Ninja Warrior 4
He then returned to compete again for American Ninja Warrior 4 in the Northeast regionals, and history repeated itself once again where he couldn’t get up the Warped Wall in qualifying. However, his time was fast enough to make it to the semi-finals, placing 21st.

In the city finals, he was able to get up the Warped Wall for the first time, and finished the course with the 3rd fastest time.

In the national finals in Las Vegas, he failed the Jumping Spider.

American Ninja Warrior 5
He came back in American Ninja Warrior 5 in Baltimore where he completed the qualifying course with the 5th fastest time. This marked the first time Dan completed the Warped Wall in the qualifier round.

In the city finals, he completed the course with the fastest time, thus beating Joe Moravsky’s time. In the national finals in Las Vegas, history repeated itself when he failed the Jumping Spider.

American Ninja Warrior 6
He competed again in American Ninja Warrior 6 in St. Louis. He completed the qualifying course, placing 10th. In the city finals, his run was cut but he once again completed the course, placing 5th.

In the national finals in Las Vegas, he was able to get revenge on the Jumping Spider, and then he eventually finished Stage 1 for the first time ever.

In Stage 2, he got past Rope Jungle and the Double Salmon Ladder, but failed the Unstable Bridge. This marks his best performance to date.

American Ninja Warrior 7
He competed in American Ninja Warrior 7 in Pittsburgh. His run was digested, but he surprisingly failed Snake Crossing in qualifying. This marked the first time since American Ninja Warrior 3 where he did not advance from qualifying.

He was one of many veterans who did not get a call to compete on American Ninja Warrior 8.

American Ninja Warrior 9
He once again did not receive a call to compete. However, he returned for American Ninja Warrior 9 as a walk-on in Cleveland, where he completed the qualifying course with the 4th fastest time.

However, in the city finals, he was one of many to fail the Nail Clipper, but his time was fast enough to qualify for Vegas, placing 7th. Unfortunately, he was not able to run in Vegas, due to an ankle injury.

He did not compete in either American Ninja Warrior 10 or American Ninja Warrior 11. He attempted to apply for American Ninja Warrior 10, but did not receive a call.
