Come Have Fun Dancing Bachata

Bachata is the rhythm of the moment. Everyone wants to learn and dance it. It’s not necessary to come in pairs, and you can start whenever you want.

The literal meaning of Bachata is “a party, a good time” so come along with us and have a great time learning, meeting new people and having fun!

We have the class divided especially for beginners with a teacher dedicated to explaining the basic steps of Bachata. So don’t worry, you will learn little by little, you will have a lot of fun and maybe you will be a great dancer. That is our commitment!

What are the Bachata lessons like?

Each class has a duration of one hour, and you can attend one or more times a week (whatever suits you best!). Keep in mind that the more lessons you take and the more you practice, the faster you will learn and improve. We offer three levels, according to your experience: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced. Is it your first class? Don’t worry about anything! You can start from scratch at the beginner’s level.

What are the requirements to start taking lessons?

You just have to attend scheduled classes throughout the week. You’ll need to wear any comfortable footwear (avoid flip flops or of the sort).

ABOUT LATIN DANCE NEW ZEALAND

Useful Information

Dance lessons can be in groups or private. Group classes have limited capacity and have one or two teachers leading the class. On the other hand, private classes are between you and the teacher.

You can attend alone or accompanied by a friend, sibling, or partner. It doesn’t matter who you come with, or if you come alone. The important thing is that you dare to start! Our lessons are going to make you feel great.

We work on a rotation system which means that everyone has an opportunity to dance and learn together, or you could also skip rotation and dance with your chosen partner throughout the class.

I never danced and I have two left feet. Will I be able to keep up with the class?

It doesn’t matter if you don’t know how to dance at all, because you came here to learn. We provide a safe and judgment-free environment. After all, we were all at that same start once! So don’t hesitate any longer, our teachers are super patient and you’ll also find people who are just starting!
