Dance With Me Soho NYC

Not just a studio but a family. The instructors at Dance With Me Soho are knowledgeable, talented and gifted ballroom instructors who are trained in every level of ballroom from the standard smooth dances (tango, waltz, foxtrot, Argentine tango, Viennese waltz) to the spicier rhythm dances (rumba, salsa, cha-cha-cha, paso doble, bolero, mambo). What I love most is that the instructors cater to all levels from fun and recreation to competitive and all shapes, shades, and sizes. more

Dance With Me SoHo is an exceptional place. Filled with laughter, encouragement, and warmth, the energy in the studio is inviting whether you are an experienced dancer or just a fan. My daughter attended a fantastic seminar given by Tony and Maks - the owners and two of the resident coaches at the studio. It was her first time dancing since a car accident left her with a serious back injury two years ago. Both Tony and Maks personally welcomed her back to dancing - and she hasn't stopped smiling since then! more

I'll start my review by saying how I was just your regular Jane who always wanted to learn how to do ballroom but thought it was absolutely impossible. That being said, when I finally found the courage to actually find a studio and give it a try, I didn't know where to begin. So many city studios to choose from. But one thing I did know is that I can't learn in a sterile, impersonal environment. I wanted to find a place where I can feel comfortable and at ease as a total beginner. When I first walked into DWM SoHo first thing I noticed was the decor. Really stunning. Right after that was the front desk. The receptionists were/are just amazing. They greet you which such a warmth and kindness you truly feel welcome and they definitely broke my initial nervousness on my first day there. The teaching staff is extremely friendly. And you can feel the camaraderie among them by just watching their interactions on the floor. Camaraderie that transcends to students of the studio as well. My intro lesson flew by so fast. We really started from the abc's like walking back and forth. Trying out the different styles was really so fun, the instructor put me at ease and I didn't feel like a spaz which was a huge success for me :) All of the above mentioned made me stay and take more lessons. Slowly I became a regular and I don't regret it. All the instructors are skilled and trained by the best professionals in the field and they practice daily to better their dancing as well as teaching skills. They LOVE what they do and you can feel it. They know how intimidating the ballroom can seem to a non-dancer so they try always to make it a fun learning experience. Manager of the studio, a former competitor himself, is an extremely pleasant person. He's not hiding in an office, behind the closed doors. You can find him sitting right next to the front desk, eyes always on the floor or walking around the room and observing the lessons, giving advices etc. The atmosphere in the studio is one of a family where everyone talks to everyone, everyone helps everyone out. Family bonded by the love of dance. So, if you are a total beginner but dying to learn how to dance or a couple who wants to have their first dance choreographed or you have some dance experience and want to revamp, polish your skills, and want to do it in a very friendly, homey environment, then this is a place for you. And since DWM is the home of DWTS pros Maks and Val Chmerovskiy and Tony Dovolani and troupe members Ted Volynets and Dasha Chesnokova, maybe you get a chance to see them as well in the studio every now and then :) but that's just a bonus. more

As previously mentioned, Dance With Me SoHo is a wonderful studio that's all about professional management, friendly and talented staff, and a great and fun working environment. The Dance With Me Corp studios have been extremely successful in the past couple of years, and I have no doubt in my mind that Dance With Me SoHo will follow in the same footsteps. I strongly encourage everyone to come and check out the new studio. Best of luck! more

Being rhythmically challenged, my girlfriend has been pestering me to take her out dancing. So I heard about this dance studio in Soho from a friend, and I heard it was started by one of the dancers from Dancing with the Stars! So, it was a no-brainer choosing this place. I got dance lessons for me and my girlfriend to do together, and I must say, it was the most fun I've ever had! Not only was I moving like champ, but the instructors were so patient and accommodating. I am definitely going to continue my lessons here, but I just had to write a review to let everyone out there know, that this is the place to pick!! If I can learn, so can you! This place is amazing! more

I had my first dance lessons at Dance With Me in Soho. The one thing that really stood out for me was the courteous, highly professional yet friendly staff. I was extremely skeptical about starting lessons, but again it was the staff that made it unbelievably enjoyable. I even go to their Long Island location on the weekends. I truly cannot get enough of Dance With Me....I highly recommend them to all ages and skill level!!!! Pros: locations in Soho and LI more

I recently attended a dance class at Dance With Me SoHo and had an incredible time! The instructors are amazing and the ambiance is breath taking. This was by far the best experience that I've had at a dance studio in New York City. more

A friend referred me to this place after their grand opening. I'm not one to write reviews but had to give this place some love. Their staff is highly skilled and friendly. They have management that's been in the ballroom dancing competition for over 15years. These guys are no joke. Also, I've been to 4 dance studios around NYC and the ambiance and beauty is incomparable. Cascading chandeliers and a huge space. A must try! Pros: professionalism, beautiful space more
