BEGINNER/ IMPROVER BACHATA CLASSES:

Level 1 and Level 1.5 (2-3 months / 8-12 weeks) offered twice a week.

The 3 months curriculum introduces you to the fundamentals of bachata with combinations and patterns that you can start using on the dance floor immediately. These levels are focused on the foundations and mainly focus on the traditional style originated in Dominican Republic. Students start with a warm-up that teaches the basic steps and simple turns. You will also learn to get close with your dance partner– no partner is necessary, as everyone rotates in class! While learning the basic step for this dance is easy, this dance is all about hips and attitude! Finally, you will also be exposed to the music, the rhythms and counts for helping you develop strong ear training.

BACHATA INTERMEDIATE CLASSES:

Level 2 – 3 (6 months) offered twice a week
Pre-requisite: Beginner bachata course / Demo class with instructor to evaluate level

In this level you will be able to develop over the patterns you have learned in the previous courses. Students start with a warm-up that teaches spins, footwork, and hip movement. More intricate steps, different hand positions, and specific turn patterns are the focus in partner-work, where students rotate to dance with each other. Emphasis is placed on hip-movement and smooth body movements and transitions, which characterize this dance as the most romantic of the various Latin styles. Furthermore, students will be introduced to the SENSUAL movements – which includes body waves, circular motion, body movements, isolations of body parts, etc.

BACHATA ADVANCE CLASSES:

Level 4 (4 months) offered twice a month.
