Bachata is a very popular dance which originates from the Dominican Republic and traditionally was a dance for lovers.
In the 1970s it was deemed so seedy it was unofficially banned from the radio and television airwaves and could only be found in the bars and brothels in the poorest barrios.
Thus, the music took on the theme of its surroundings and musicians sang of love, fights and poverty.
By the early 1980s, Bachata's popularity could no longer be denied and performers found themselves performing on stage and television.
Today, Bachata is so popular that it is played and danced worldwide; you can find some of the rhythmic elements of the music combined with elements of genres such as Hip Hop, R&B and more.
Before the Spanish, and later the Italians introduced turn patterns into the dance, Bachata revolved around footwork, whether danced solo or in partnership.
A passionate, romantic, and beautiful dance loved by all.
Salsa Bristol is one of the longest-running Salsa and Latin dance schools in the South West region.
Over the 10 years we have been running, we have had students from all walks of life and of all ages (from 18 to 70s!) – besides running our weekly classes, parties, and special events, we have taught at charity events, primary schools (including children and adults with special needs), and even Red Arrows pilots!
Salsa Bristol's founder, Wayne, recognised how daunting it can be to go from a beginners level, to “improvers” – as a result, we were one of the first to bring in “jumpers” lessons to bridge the gap between these dance levels.
This Bachata class is designed for those who want to improve their leading technic and for followers to connect with their partners. This class will be full of fun and creativity for everyone
