You’ve seen them on TV—hips swaying, arms swinging and spins galore—and now three stars of “Dancing With the Stars” have brought the dance floor to Boca Raton with the opening of their newest Dance With Me studio.

Brothers Maks and Val Chmerkovskiy and co-star Tony Dovolani, who have each danced their way to victory on the ABC television series, opened their first Florida studio on Wednesday at the Terrace of the Town Center Mall. It marks the 12th studio in the country, where beginner to advanced students can learn ballroom, Latin, waltz, foxtrot and more. Also, the studios lead wheelchair dance classes.

For those with two left feet? The guys especially want you to try out Dance With Me.

“Anybody that knows how to dance a little bit, they become the life of the party,” said Dovolavi, who has served as a judge at Boca Ballroom Battle.

Just hours before the red ribbon was cut at the studio, Boca mag had the chance to talk with the Chmerkovskiys and Dovolani about their new venture.
