Brothers Maksim and Valentin Chmerkovskiy, who go by “Maks & Val,” were born in Ukraine, where ballroom dancing was included in the students’ curriculum. The family came to Brooklyn, New York, when the brothers were children, and where they began their careers in competitive ballroom dancing. From there, the duo went on to “Dancing with the Stars,” which made them household names. They stayed with the show for 14 seasons.
After leaving the program, Maks & Val have been Touring to the delight of their fans. Observers have noted that the brothers have a connection that makes their live performances, where they combine their talent with visual effects, events to be remembered. Maks & Val perform with their wives, Peta Murgatroyd and Jenna Johnson respectively, lifting the program to a new level. Poster printing can be used to create colorful advertising for events like this.
A review of their performance says:
“Maks, Val and PETA [sic] are three of the most amazing people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. The show was breathtaking from start to finish and I left wishing I could watch it over again. They are . . . amazingly talented. Everyone should see them dance live once in their lifetime.”
Maks & Val will appear at the Taft Theater on June 17 at 8.00 pm.
