Bachata Rueda Course โ€“ Starting Oct 7!
Bachata Rueda is bachata danced in a circle (โ€œruedaโ€ = wheel). A caller calls fun moves and everyone does them together, often swapping partners, itโ€™s social, high-energy, and way less serious than it sounds. If you muck it up, great โ€” just laugh and keep going. Perfect for beginners and seasoned dancers keen for plenty of fun, good tunes, and lots of laughter. All welcome, come have a boogie with us!
It will be 8-week Bachata Rueda course, kicking off this Tuesday
๐Ÿ—“ When: Every Tuesday, 6:30 pm โ†’ ~1 hour
๐Ÿ“ Where: Stoke Indoor Bowling Club, 206 Songer Street, Stoke, Nelson
๐Ÿ’ต Cost - $130 per term, $20 casual
โœจ What youโ€™ll learn & experience:
- Over 30 rueda figures
- Beginner-friendly
- Focus on joy, fun and community
๐ŸŒŸ A note for dance leaders & aspiring bachata leaders
Iโ€™ll be honest โ€” my favourite dance was always Cuban Salsa, and it took me years to start enjoy leading bachata. Now i love it. What changed it for me was Bachata Rueda.
- Dancing in a synchronised group and picking up leading cues instantly from others (mirror neurons at work!)
- Failing made fun, with lots of laughter
- No time to overthink
All of this transformed my leading โ€” making it easier, more confident, and way more enjoyable.
On this course, Iโ€™ll share practical tips to help you lead with confidence and ease, while the rueda format does the rest.
๐Ÿ‘‰ And ladies, if youโ€™ve ever felt called to try leading, thereโ€™s no better place to start than in rueda!
So come join us โ€” itโ€™s going to be fun, playful, and full of dance magic.
