Bachata At Dance Space by Cornel Rodrigues
A Latin American dance from the Dominican Republic that's taken the city (and the dance world) by storm, Bachata is hot, hot, hot! There's good reason this dance form has blown up the way it has. A social dance form, Bachata is danced to an 8-beat count that's sensual, with plenty of hip and foot movements. It's a partnered dance and is perfect for couples. While plenty of places around the city perform the dance, we like Cornel and Rithika's Bachata sensual where you can sign up for classes or workshops if you're planning to learn this form.
