At Dance with Me Studios, we offer dance programs to teach children skills that they will benefit from the rest of their lives. Latin and Ballroom dance is a fun and great way for children to keep healthy, both physically and mentally. Dance instruction not only teaches kids the art of movement, but also essential social and personal skills, such as respect for the opposite sex, self discipline and self motivation. Our Children's ballroom dance is an educational and exciting way to learn about the world of dancing.

At DWM, we teach kids how to dance with confidence. The skills they learn from dancing will put them at ease at any social event in their lives. They will learn basic dance principles and become familiar with many dance styles, such as Ballroom, Latin and Swing dances. The children's lesson covers step patterns, posture, dancing to the rhythm and beat. We offer private lessons which can work around their other extra-curricular activities. All ages welcome. No partner required.

We believe hard-working parents' initiative in enrolling their children in dance instruction nurtures great dancers and great individuals. "We have created a recipe for success," says Maksim Chmerkovskiy, two-time finalist on ABC's hit TV show Dancing With The Stars', about the children's dance program at Dance with Me Studios. "I have studied ballroom dancing since childhood. The foundation of our studios was built on what I have learned in my own experience as well as from teaching others. We appreciate the parents efforts into bringing their children to the studio and encourage their children's efforts and dedication to learning to ballroom dance."

Youth DanceSport Competitors
Dance instruction can motivate many children to step onto the world of DanceSport. At Dance with Me Studios, our extensive experience in preparing young dancers for competition is unparalleled. Our family of dance professionals began training as children, too. We know exactly what children of all ages need to excel in the world of Latin and Ballroom dance. Our very own founder Maks helped his brother, Valentin Chmerkovkiy, become a two-time World Champion.

We honor this tradition by continually helping our students prepare for national and international championships. After children learn the basic steps and techniques of several dance styles, we help enroll interested students in competitions within the New York Tri-State area, North America and abroad.
