Learning to Dance At Bachata Room™
Bachata Room™ has one goal, to bring Latin social dancing and all of its benefits to people around Boston. We combine intro dance lessons in Bachata, Salsa, and Kizomba style dancing with the rich tradition of Latin social dancing.
What is Latin social dancing?
Social dancing is exactly what it sounds like. You partner up and hit the dance floor for fun and to learn new moves. Our social dances are friendly for beginners and are designed to help you learn the basics and be able to quickly keep up on the dance floor.
In social dancing, the focus isn’t so much on performing as it is learning the moves with your partner, and enjoying good company and good music.
Dance Bachata in Boston
Bachata is a style of Latin dance that originates in the Dominican Republic. It is essentially a three-step dance with roots in Cuban hip motion. If that all sounds like a bunch of jargon to you - don’t worry! Before each social dance, we have a lesson that will teach you the basics.
Bachata has a rich history and has taken on several variants over the years. To learn more about this style, check out this in-depth explanation of Bachata style dancing.
