Loved this article! The interviews with two of the students, including one who started taking lessons 9 years ago when her son deployed to Iraq, were excellent. People start taking lessons for different reasons, they keep taking them because of the positive impact on their lives. 💯
My daughter and I along with some Forum friends took lessons at the SoHo location when in the City for both @SWAYshow production runs. ❤️ that place, ❤️ the people, ❤️ the quality instruction. So much so, I actually wrote and delivered hand-written thank you notes to our instructor, Steve, and Management- Leeanne and Kosta! I repeat... TWO hand-written notes...in this day and age! The experience was that worthy. Here's my review from our first set of lessons in July: Yelp DanceWithMeUSA SoHo Review.
The @NJLive article noted they've 25 additional studios on the drawing board...💃Hope one is planned for the DC area, ideally Montgomery County! 😍😍😍
In the final episode of "The Making of SWAY 2.0" we see the final show of December 2014! We get a glimpse of reactions from cast, audience, and more...
Nice message for those who attended SWAY, or are otherwise on DWM's email mailing list. (ETA: If you'd like to be on their mailing list, fill out the form here: http://dancewithmeusa.com/sway/) A bunch of the formatting has been lost, sorry:
"Hey Sharon,
A few months ago we planned to do one more SWAY show during the holiday season. One turned into two, two turned in four, and we somehow ended up with eight shows in five days!
It was an amazing experience for the cast and production team, but it would be nothing without YOU!
The energy in the building during the shows, plus all the kind messages online and offline, inspired us to get better with every performance, giving you our absolute best every time.
The unity, teamwork, camaraderie, and love that we all shared is not something that can be articulated in an email. Every single person that was associated with the show gave their absolute best, collectively resulting in something remarkable.
It's hard to describe in words. If you were there, you know what I mean. If you missed it or want to relive it again,
go watch the season finale of "The Makin of SWAY 2.0" right now!
We want to thank YOU, the members of our big Dance With Me family, the audience, our students, and long-distance fans who came from countries such as Norway, England, Sweden, Canada, Puerto Rico, Jamaica and more, for your continuous support and inspiration. The joy and enthusiasm you exude drives us to be great every day. Some of you even came to as many as 5 shows! Just WOW. Thank you!
Thank you to our Dance With Me support team. The same wonderful people who greet you every day made sure that there were no loose ends and that everyone had a pleasurable experience. You know who you are. Thank you!
Thank you to our amazing cast of dancers who sacrificed every night and weekend in the last three months to prepare for this show WHILE being the awesome teachers at our studios or international TV personalities. It wasn't easy but you did it.
Your talent, effort, and dedication did not go unnoticed. Thank you!
Thank you to our visionary choreographers, David Thomas Moore and Joao Tiago Fernandes, who once more blew us away with an incredible show. Their creativity, direction, and choreography through storytelling made this more than just a dance show and unforgettable experience. Thank you!
Thank you to our wonderful stars Meryl, Zendaya, Val, Maks, Tony, Peta, Sharna, Henry, Artem, Serge, and Jenna. Your talent, leadership, energy, and experience helped take this show over the top. Your input and knowledge instilled confidence and inspired each dancer to exceed their personal bests. Thank you!
Thank you to all our amazing sponsors and partners. Without them the show would not be possible... Thank you to Bagel Masters for providing us with delicious and nutritious food throughout the week. You literally gave us the energy needed to perform.
Thank you to Chezzam for everything you did with the production. You helped make the show extraordinary. You helped us tell the SWAY story and added an effect that excited the senses.
Thank you to VALENTIN and Dore Designs for providing us with stunning costumes. You made sure we looked fabulous.
Thank you to your entire teams that helped us with all our wardrobe needs and costume changes. We would not be able to change so quickly and make it back on stage in time without you.
Thank you to our Dance With Me partners, Sasha, Jhanna, Eugene, Maks, Val, and Tony for giving us the platform to exercise our talents. Their vision and philosophy applies to everything we do. Thank you!
As you can see from this short episode, that is a week that we will never forget. Thank you to EVERYONE who made this show possible.
What's next? Perhaps a SWAY 3.0...? I guess you'll have to stay tuned to find out...
Thank you for making SWAY 2.0 an unforgettable experience!
Love and gratitude,
The Dance With Me Family
Dance With Me Studios 466 Broome Street New York, NY 10013 USA "
Q re Maks performances
Hi. You are lucky you got to go to so many Sway shows. Respect your opinion. You saw Maks and Meryl dance and Maks and Peta dance. What were the differences? Haven’t really heard any commentary on this. Believe both danced the rumba. My impression from watching clips is that while Peta is the better dancer technically (and Maks and Peta’s dances looked great), Meryl and Maks just have something extra special that is not explainable. Based on what you saw in person, do you agree about Maks and Meryl’s chemistry on the dance floor? Did your colleagues have the same opinion? Thanks. ****** Indeed, I enjoyed good fortune being able to see so many SWAY shows and hope the pattern continues for subsequent 'editions' of SWAY! I also thank you for your kind words. The performances by both ladies with Maks were outstanding. Not sure about the utility in comparing them. To me, when someone can perform at that level, an audience is in for an excellent experience. Judging by the response, the audiences were thrilled every night with all of the performances.
