Intermediate Bachata Dance

This new offering of Intermediate Bachata by the City of Santa Clarita has proven to be a great success. Be aware that class size is limited. Jonathan, Mike, and Oscar are co-teaching- so a lot of new moves and ideas will be presented.

Participants must already know the Bachata basics in order to attend. There is no way for true beginners and first-timers to fake it.

Co-hosted by the /City of Santa Clarita- you must sign up online through the "Santa Clarita Seasons" website before class.

This dance course reinforces basic steps and introduces more complex patterns for partner dancing.

Bachata has recently evolved into several genres- we do not teach "the sensual style" as this deviates from the traditional purpose of Bachata, which is originally a style for the shy and polite.

This is a partner dance, but for class, no partner is required. We use partner rotation to expand experience and skill techniques, but couples who do not wish to rotate may stay together.

Flat-soled, non-textured-bottomed shoes are helpful. Don't buy dance shoes for this casual style.

Those ready to go and committed should sign up online through the City of Santa Clarita Seasons website. The City will charge a nominal fee of $35 for this 3-week course of instruction.
