About the dance:
Dominican Bachata is a lively fusion of rhythmic bolero and Afro-Antillean genres, such as Son and Merengue. Considered a vernacular cultural expression, it permeates community celebrations and gatherings in the Dominican Republic. With deep lyrics expressing love and passion, the term 'bachata' originally referred to lively gatherings. Traditionally performed by a small group of musicians using guitars and percussion, the dance is characterized by sensual hip movements and a simple eight-step structure. Integral to traditional celebrations, the dance is often learned spontaneously, but there are numerous dedicated academies for its transmission.
