Dancing With the Stars' Maks in Chicago

Fans of Dancing With the Stars’ MAKS CHMERKOVSKIY had a rare chance to learn the secrets, steps and techniques Maks has taught celebrities during his four seasons on the top-rated ABC-TV hit show.

He has appeared on Seasons 2, 3, 4 and 5 of Dancing With the Stars, where he’s been teamed with celebrity dance partners including Tia Carrere, Willa Ford, Laila Ali, and Spice Girl Melanie Brown.

We recently arranged for Max to visit Chicago and conduct a series of open-to-the public ballroom dance workshops for our client, Chicagoland Fred Astaire Dance Studios, and we invited NBC-5's 24/7 Chicago host Catie Keogh to take to the dance floor.
