STYLE FEATURE: BACHATA
Passionate, rhythmic, and wonderfully expressive, Bachata originated in the Dominican Republic, evolving from a blend of African, Indigenous, and European influences.
Dominican-style Bachata emphasizes fast footwork and musical interpretation, while modern styles such as Sensual and Urban Bachata focus more on fluid body movement and dramatic styling. Traditionally danced to romantic guitar-driven music, modern Bachata has expanded to include influences from pop, R&B, and electronic sounds — and is now danced around the world.
