I fell in love with international Latin style dancing when I saw the movie dance with me. I never had a chance to learn and now I feel like it’s so hard to find this style and the standard style in my local area. I would love to learn more about your journey through competition!
Cheryl, Thank you for sharing. I just started taking ballroom dance lessons in December of 2020. I got into it to lose weight and also to gain my confidence back after having life saving surgery this past July that changed how my abdomen looked. Now that I'm in it, I'm falling more in love with it and am easily getting sucked into the world. I love hearing about how or why people got into dance.
@@CherylBurke Omg you actually responded to a fan. I love you even more now! It was nice to see your brother in law on Dwts but next season would be really cool if you partnered up with your husband! 🤟🏻
I've seen you in Dancing With The Stars but your story about how you got in the ballroom industry is so inspiring. I wanted to be a Broadway star/working actress and also a ballroom dancer, so your story inspired me to take ballroom lessons. Thank you!
This is awesome! My son is 13 and ballroom dancing. I love seeing these sort of behind the scenes or things we can anticipate. None of our family are from this dancing world so we are flying blind and letting his teachers lead us along and we just saw Jonathan a couple of weeks ago and he evaluated my kiddo. Thank you and keep them coming please!!!
You are adorable!! Love hearing your stories!! So interesting! You are so very lucky to have the type of mother you have, she obviously believed the sky was the limit for you! I also admire the way you adore your step Dad.
I did do ballroom dancing for 4 years. I absolutely loved it. I wish I was still dancing. Cheryl, you are a amazing dancer. I could never get enough of ballroom dancing.
This is cool to hear about Cheryl! Glad you had good teachers who laid the foundation for your dance career. I’ve been watching DWTS since season 2. You and Drew Lachey are still my all time favorite couple.
Thanks for making the vids! I always loved dancing 💃🏻 with stars. And the sort of lights a fire 🔥 in me. Not just for dance but in all things worthy having a fire 🔥 about!
This video is great! I love the way you got introduced to Ballroom Dancing! I watch the competitions on T.V. It's funny that you competed against your Mom. You've come a long way, Cheryl! God bless.
Found your stories on TH-cam so excited hearing your experiences and the world of ballroom dancing. Good job sharing them and letting us fans know what you're up to these days.
Thank you🤗I love this... I have loved dance and used to travel alone to see all the pros and went to DWTS the first 10 season. So I appreciate this about you.. 🤗 my husband loved watching you and would vote for you(still does) no matter what partner you have. 😂he’s so funny. Can’t wait for the next part.
Hello Cheryl, you have inspired me for many years with your dances on Dancing with the Stars! You are such a brilliant dancer and your style of dancing is so graceful. It was your passion for dancing that inspired me to got back to the world world and learn new styles of dances all over again. From there I went go to teach a small dance group of young girls at church. I appreciate you for sharing your stories of your journey to dancing.
Such a joy to watch and hear about your journey in dancing. Hope you continue to share your story. I'm also fan of your diamond painting. Its a hobby of mine too. ❤️
Thank you for sharing your story. I’ve been a huge fan of yours ever since you started with DWTS! When you mentioned you grew up in the Bay, I became even more of a fan. I always admire ballroom dancing and when I was a little girl, I used to always walk home and walk by Metronome Dance studio in San Francisco and just stare at all the ballroom dancers and I always wanted to dance just like them. I grew up in San Francisco like yourself. You’re my favorite dancer in DWTS and I admire your creativity and passion for dance. 💜
I love these stories. Some of these names are names I'm familiar with (Jonathan Roberts, Tony Delgado, David Weise) so it's fun to see how intertwined the whole community is.
Really needed to hear your story. Started my ballroom early this year (right before covid lockdowns), and it for sure has been an emotional rollercoaster...even at this moment! I've been fortunate to have been able to join my alma mater's ballroom dance club and meet others in the ballroom community.
I’ve never seen dancing with the stars (and I didn’t even know you were in that show until I read the comments, that’s how little of the show i’ve seen haha) But i’m here because I really really want to start ballroom dancing but i’m kind of scared. I’m turning 17 in four days and I see people say that’s really late! I’m also not exactly as thin as the girls who normally compete ballroom dance and i’ve never danced at all before.. plus I feel like first lessons are super scary! Your video is just making ballroom dance seem even more exciting though! It would be so amazing to compete in ballroom dance and take classes!
Go for it!!! I just started about a month ago (I'm 16) and its so much fun and I'm not thin as other girls either but it's so much fun! And 17 is definitely not too late to start nothing someone's passionate about can be started too late so don't worry! I will admit the first lesson can be scary and intimidating but I'm sure it'll go just fine. Good luck on your dancing journey! (P.s. you should watch dancing with the stars it is so beautiful and it gets me pumped to dance lol)
Go for it!!! I'm 38 and definitely don't have the thin body that dancers have and I just started three months ago. It's a lot of fun and you will get sucked into it. Do it. I got into to so I can lose weight and gain confidence with my body as I had life saving surgery months ago that changed my body image and confidence within myself. It's slowly bringing my confidence back and I'm seeing changes within my body. Go for it!
HI CHERYL ! Im your biggest fan , i only watch dwts if u are in the show , im from the Philippines , i used to go on ballroom dancing with my friends before i move to US (las vegas)since then im not able to dance again , so i just happy when i saw you at dwts.First time saw i thought u are pilipino i am right .i told my husband ,she is a pilipino.and im proud. i wish i could dance again just for fun bec im old now!
I Will Always Adore you! Your DWTS exercise dvds helped me lose over 130 pounds when i was younger. I Always Dreamed to Dance with you! One day I Hope we meet and Can Burn the Dance Floor.
I had no idea you did pro-am! (Although you did early enough that you yourself could turn pro, whereas that is a pipe dream for me.) I met Stephan Krauel at a comp in Hawaii; nicest man on the face of the planet, and his SF competition is on my list of places to compete when COVID is over.
I think i remember seeing your mom dance when i was a kid. I watched ballroom on tv as a kid. I though it was so amazing. Still would love to learn. But i feel i have 2 left feet
This footage was great i love to dance and always wanted to be a dancer, I love watching you on dancing with stars you have been my favorite from the beginning and you still are the best and my favorite.
Cheryl i loved the video. I enjoy watching you dance. I missed the time you was in Japan (hope that's correct). Thank you for your story and i love watching Dancing with the Stars!
This story I need a timeline and a map or an outline with pictures to keep up 🤣🤣🤣 it's fun to watch and see how you got started I am a 10-15 yr Dancing with the Stars fan!! Omgoodness I am in denial about my age and how long I have been watching DWTS🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for sharing a generous chunk of your early life! You are still my favorite DWTS pro. QUESTION: How do you "lovingly" kick someone to the curb? 😆
I can’t help but feel that persistence is a Filipino trait. 😂 As a fellow mestiza, when you talk about your mom, I cant help but laugh and think to myself “Oh, I know EXACTLY what you are talking about.” 🤣
Dear Cheryl, Very interesting, and amazing how Hard all you young dancers worked at attaining your skills. Props to you all. ? about DWTS do you also have to separate from your husband during the season since the married ones do? I find it hard to believe that Peta would agree to separate from her son for that amount of time, but this whole virus thing is so kind of mind blowing anyways. FYI if you used this channel during the season for questions, 10 to 1 your subscriptions would go Way Up. Anyways find this very interesting and entertaining, thank you, and good luck. 💃💃💃🌟🌟🌟
I actually did ballroom for a few years but got bored after a switch to a lackluster teacher and a few "bad" partners. Kinda wish I'd stuck with it though.
I wish I could have gotten into dance! I wanted to dance like Fred Asteir. I wanted to tap, but my parents did see spending money on dance classes for a Nebraska farm boy! Hell they would not get me lesson for guitar either cause I might end up playing in a rock and roll band or something!
such success so early, talented lady !

I enjoyed this very much! You do these very well.
I didn’t enjoy ballet either as a child so I changed to gymnastics. It was a much better outlet for me.
Love all the dance footage your mom took! 💃🏻
