Bachata

You might not recognise the name but you might well have watched and admired this amorous dance which is easily identified by a gentle hip movement on the count of 4 and 8.

Bachata originates from the Dominican Republic and is close to Amanda’s heart. Steeped in folklore, it is a romantic, sensual dance, with partners holding each other close and swaying to the music.

Bachata has become an extremely popular style of Latin dance and you won’t find a better teacher of pure, unadulterated Bachata.

Beginner

This beautiful dance is a slightly calmer alternative to Salsa and our Beginners' Bachata lessons are open to anyone.

Learn Bachata independently or use Bachata lessons as the perfect compliment to your Salsa lessons when you're starting out, because Bachata allows you to master leading and following techniques at a steadier pace. You'll also learn the basic forward back, side 2 side, half turn and return and changing places.

We teach the basics of Bachata by focusing on specific topics for short periods, so your lessons never become repetitive. This means that you can continue to enjoy attending Beginners' Bachata lessons for as long as you want or need to and you'll never be bored or stop learning.

We'll advise you personally when you are ready to move into our Improvers' Bachata class.

Each 4 week course costs just £20.

Improvers

With a well-established understanding of Bachata movement, music and direction you will be taught the difference between the different styles of Bachata and how to move comfortably around the floor using turns and sweeps.

We'll also introduce you to a lot of beautiful smooth footwork to embellish your Bachata.

Amanda's reputation for Bachata means we can gurantee you will learn a higher calibre of Bachata at Todo Latino than anywhere else in the UK.

We look forward to opening an Intermediate Bachata course in the near future. In the mean time we offer Bachata workshops for those wanting to focus on improving further and styling their Bachata.
