Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Meryl Davis are reuniting on the dance floor. The pair, who won the Mirror Ball Trophy on "Dancing With the Stars" season 18 will be featured on the upcoming dance extravaganza "SWAY: A Dance Trilogy," on June 5 and 6 at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City.
"I can't stay away," says Chmerkovskiy of his "DWTS" partner. "We love working together. Any opportunity I get to dance with her is welcome."
The Olympic gold-winning ice dancer took part in her first SWAY production back in December but was only able to dance for one night because of her busy schedule. This time, she will be on two shows and the matinee on June 6, according to People.

Chmerkovskiy says that Davis loves to be a part of the show.
"We love having her," said the 35-year old dance pro. "She's just a pleasure."
Though rumors that the two are secretly dating still swirl on the internet two season after they've won the grand prize at the hit ABC dance competition show, Chmerkovskiy insists that they are only friends and that she has become a part of his inner circle.
"We became close, dear friends," he says. "There were romance rumors all over the place, but there always are. It's the nature of the show. When you have single people on there, there are assumptions, assumptions, and assumptions."
Now, Chmerkovskiy is rumored to have gotten back together with Peta Murgatroyd. The pair has not confirmed the rumors as of the moment, and it appears that all three of them get along just fine as Murgatroyd, Chmerkovskiy, and Davis were photographed heading out to lunch at Gracias Madre in Anaheim on Thursday, April 2 by Just Jared.
The pro dancer says that they didn't let any of the positive or negative publicity "undermine what they think of one another."
"She is part of the family," he said of Davis.
