if you love dancing, and didn't know where to start, this is your place. I had been wanting to dance some hip-hop for a while and found the courage to start. I had a fantastic first class with Fabio as a private class to assess where I'm at and what I'm interested in. it was fun and I truly enjoyed it. The process for scheduling was super easy and flexible and there's plenty of options to choose from. Signed up for a group class and so excited to start! read more

Before I stepped into the studio, I did not think much of it. Maybe a dusty mirror, dim lighting, and the echo of disinterested feet. Instead, I was met with a space where personalized instruction meets a vibrant community, igniting the passion of aspiring dancers and casual enthusiasts alike. What I like most about the studio is its smaller class sizes. It's ensures focused attention, allowing instructors to tailor guidance to individual goals and offer understanding encouragement that nurtures every dancer's potential. For those who thrive in intimate settings, this is the perfect haven. Forget the impersonal studio experience. Dance with Me Glen Rock fosters a warm, welcoming atmosphere where competition isn't just about winning, but about collective growth and shared passion. read more

This is not just a dance studio. This is a family. Such a welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff & instructors. You don't even need a partner. Come join the family!! read more

I have not even begun my first dance lesson, but am already so impressed with Elena who is both the manager and one of the dance instructors at the studio. We have been communicating via text messages for months regarding questions I have had about selecting classes and attending with no partner and no prior experience. Elena's follow-through and responsiveness is like none other I've experienced. She takes it upon herself to check in periodically with me, never trying to lure me in with a sales pitch or talk me into a class I don't want to take. Instead, she is as friendly, patient and helpful as she can be which is consistent with what I'm reading in other reviews about the staff at DWM. I'm looking forward to finally starting in July. Thanks Elena for already making me feel welcomed! read more

DWM Glen Rock is a very special place indeed. From the moment you walk in, the folks here create a warm, welcoming environment that really makes you feel like you're part of their family. I began taking lessons here because (1) I've always wanted to learn how to dance, and saw it as an opportunity to improve myself, and a new challenge to finally conquer, (2) I was very impressed with the overall appearance and professionalism of the facility, and (3) it's very conveniently located for me. Oh, and did I mention that it's owned by Maks & Val Chmerkovskiy from Dancing with the Stars? My instructors, Elena and Sasha, are both top-notch. But having seen the other instructors in action, I can say they are ALL superb. I've been working on various Latin social dances (Salsa, Rumba, Bachata), American Smooth (Foxtrot, Tango, Waltz), and even Swing, Jive and Hip-Hop! I started in March 2020, just a few weeks before COVID-19 sadly shut everything down. However, the owners quickly sprang into action and began offering online group lessons through Zoom. I cannot stress how INCREDIBLY helpful the online lessons were. Upon finally returning to the studio in August when they re-opened, I felt much more confident with my steps thanks to the company's virtual presence. They're still offering the online lessons as of October 2020, and yes, I'm still taking them -- along with the in-studio lessons. As I reflect on the past 6 months, it's amazing how far I've progressed. Going from an absolute beginner who knew nothing about dance, to learning various moves and routines that would have been unthinkable not long ago -- there really is nothing like turning a girl, by the way :O) -- is incredible to me. Although it's a lifelong project that most of us will never master, the joy really is in the journey, and not in the destination. I'm truly grateful for the wonderful people at DWM for not only challenging me and keeping my sanity during the COVID lockdown, but for providing the opportunity to learn a new skill that you can carry with you for life. read more

Note: This refers to a visit maybe about a year ago, so things may have changed since then. This is an upscale dance studio in Bergen County, and happens to be really close to where I live (right down 208). I took a handful of lessons here with my then practice partner was a student at the SoHo location. He raved about the studios, and they seemed nice enough to try so I figured I'd give it a shot. The lessons were OK, just nothing I'd write home about. Knowledgeable enough instructors to teach up to the intermediate level quite well. They were a bit pushy on sales after my second lesson there and I didn't bother with any after that. The floor here was more or less like an ice-skating rink. The studio itself is insanely small, but very well decorated. I can't even imagine having to do standard while group classes are in session. The studio itself is beautiful... just wear some sticky shoes for the floor. read more

Dance with Me Glen Rock has gone above and beyond my expectations for a dance studio. I am so happy that I decided to take the chance to try something that I have only dreamed of doing, something that is so far out of my comfort zone. Every single instructor at Dance with me GR has a tremendous amount of patience, skill, and professionalism. I never could have imagined that I would feel so welcome and comfortable doing something I was so unfamiliar with. I encourage anyone who wants to learn to dance to try DWMGR. It has easily been one of the best life decisions I have ever made. Thank you, Dance with Me fam. read more

I've been Jazzercise instructor and franchise owner in Paramus for 17 years and love it. So I think I'm pretty skilled at how to teach a class and motivate my customers. But learning how to ballroom dance with a partner is a whole other thing! And guess what? I. LOVE. IT. I was so nervous walking in to my trial lesson but by the end of it I KNEW this was going to be one of the best things I've done for myself in a long time. The instructors are fabulous. Not only are they accomplished dancers but they're excellent instructors... they really connect with you and figure out how you learn best. Everyone at the studio is friendly, warm, and welcoming... students, instructors and staff. They're a wonderful, fun, enthusiastic and lively bunch. Don't wait for your friends to agree to go with you. Just go. Like Nike says, "Just Do It". read more

We were nervous about the first dance at our wedding and from the initial phone call we were put at ease by Erika, a wonderful instructor and great choreographer. We brought her our song and a ton of anxiety and within weeks she had us dancing and confident. She made it fun and easy and everyone else there was kind and encouraging too. People at our wedding were both surprised and really impressed with our dance. We are very grateful and recommend Dance with Me so highly! read more

I've been coming since it opened and by now feel like family.

All are so friendly and welcoming and know how to bring out the best in everyone. Dancing at DWM always makes me feel happy. "Dance like there's no one looking" -- and I do! Just wish the social parties were twice as long. read more

I first started at Dance with Me Glen Rock in spring of 2014. I had never taken lessons before- I instantly fell in love and was "adopted" into the Dance With Me family! The instructors are all incredibly professional, inspiring, and enthusiastic. They can teach any level, whether you are a beginner looking to just feel comfortable on any dance floor, to an aspiring instructor looking to compete, and everything in between! Not only is Dance With Me Glen Rock a fantastic place to learn individually, they also offer various group classes, kids' classes and social parties - where everyone gets the opportunity to practice what we have learned with other students and all the instructors. I can't write this review without mentioning that this Studio is part of the franchise owned by tony dovolani, and maks and val Chmerkovskiy. Often the opportunity comes up to have private and group lessons and seminars offered by maks, val, tony, or other members of Dancing With the Stars family. Dance With Me Glen Rock really is a family. When you walk in the doors you are met with a warm smile and a welcoming hand...leading you to the dancefloor and transforming you into the dancer you want to be!! read more

I live Dance With Me Glen Rock! read more

I purchased a Groupon 2 years ago here in anticipation of my son's wedding which finally occurred in late September. Unfortunately, the Groupon expired but the manager agreed to honor the full value. My wife and I were greeted by a very friendly staff, completed a brief profile and were now to be instructed by Misha. Everyone around us seemed to be having a great time and were very cordial to us being quite the novices at dancing. We had a blast and feel so much more comfortable dancing and understanding the basic elements of dance. They have open sessions every week so we plan to continue our new hobby. Misha was one of the best instructors that I have encountered as he shared his ideas knowing what we wanted to accomplish in such a brief time. He even called us after the wedding to check on us. Bottom line: fun, professional and friendly service. read more

Very unprofessional, non-polite, and non-courteous management here. They obviously do not know how to treat people. Steer clear.
