    When done right, ballroom dancers look as if they are gliding across the floor. It is a sexy, seductive and challenging art form that is beautiful to watch. Thanks to Dancing with the Stars and other dance-style shows, ballroom has found acceptance in mainstream America, but it wasn't always that way.

Now, people of all ages are flocking to Gene to learn how to perform this classic dance form. Gene is an accomplished dancer with a wall of championship trophies to his name, but his pride comes not from that, but from the accomplishments of his students. He's such a great teacher, that one of his closest students (known as his brother Alan Bersten) is now one of the pro's on Dancing With the Stars. Tim Murphy sits down with Gene to talk about dance, tight clothes and hard work.
