Join us every Thursday evening for a fun night of learning BACHATA, one of the hottest Latin dances worldwide! What is Bachata?
Bachata is a dance originating from the Dominican Republic that embodies connection, footwork, and being inspired by the rhythmic beats of bachata music playing instruments including bongos, guitars, and the guira. Bachata is a fusion dance with elements and influence from Merengue, Son, and Bolero.
Over more than a decade, Bachata music and the dance has evolved not only within the D.R., but also with new moves and styles inspired by various cultures and dances all over the world with much of the modern/sensual style influenced by Spain. There are now 3 styles (among others) of dance that are commonly blended to embrace the full musicality of Bachata Music (Traditional Dominican Style, Modern Style, and Sensual Style).
With Bailemos Bachata Knoxville, you will learn all three of these styles, as we rotate teaching these styles weekly.
