Deaf actress Marlee Matlin's challenge on ABC's "Dancing with the Stars" has inspired teens with hearing loss.
On Friday night a local deaf teen club met at Powell Crosley, Jr. YMCA on Winton Road to learn how to dance.
Instructors hope to use dance as a tool to increase awareness about how many deaf professional dancers there are nationwide.
The teens involved were excited because they not only learned a few ballroom steps, but also learned hip hop and modern dance.

Thank you so much to Rachel James for teaching the teens some great hip hop dances!
