Information on Bachata Dance - the coolest dance form

Dance. Love. Sing. Live.

In this era of technologies who doesn’t love to sing and dance. All around world people love to dance with their partners (or life partner) for those geeks there is one dance form known as “Bachata Dance”

So what is Bachata Dance?

Bachata is style of dance that originated in Dominican Republic, and it is danced widely all over the world but not identically. This is also known as sensual dance form and it is made for partners.

So, to perform this classy dance form you have to take some classes i.e., “Bachata Dance Classes”

Now you would have question in your mind that why to take classes for a dance?

My friend, everything in life doesn’t come easily. Don’t worry i will advice you about Bachata dance.

The real key is to Start. Start Small, Start Now.

Don’t worry too much about getting good or flexing or anything like that from the get go. Learn to love and enjoy the process of learning. Practice your BASICS.

 The BASIC is the key to everything. It’s difficult to find a teacher who can teach the basic properly but any bachata teacher worth his/her weight in gold will be able to teach the basic for days, months, years on end and still reveal something new.

“The simple things are the most extraordinary, and only the wise can see them”- Paulo Coelho

The KEYS TO SUCCESS are as follows (This is for both leads and follows)

·         PRACTICE YOUR FUNDAMENTALS.

·         BASIC STEP. BODY ISOLATIONS. TIMING. ELASTICITY. ETC It don’t matter how good you look if you’re always off time, and a terrible partner to dance with in terms of feel (and if you are either of those things right now, don’t worry! You’ll get better.)

·         TAKE BACHATA CLASSES. Privates are the best bang for buck if you only care about skills, then Group classes. Be careful of “performance teams.”

·         Joining a performance team is great and fun but there is a DIFFERENCE between how good someone looks on stage and how good someone feels when you dance with them. Be wary of this.

·         Understand that most great performers also have their FUNDAMENTALS AND BASICS down pat first. Later on, performing really is just about learning and mastering sequences of choreography. So focus on the basics instead.

·         YOU NEED TO GO OUT AND SOCIAL DANCE. ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE YOU ARE BAD AND YOU’RE NOT READY

So these are some of the advices it is useful if you follow them thoroughly.
