Wow thank you for this video. I've been dancing Bachata for years but not in this style. (Dominican). This has always looked the most beautiful to me but I just haven't tried to Learn it. I stumbled on this video and it's great. It's subtle differences in the hip movements and step placement that makes this beautiful Thank you so much, I will now find people to practice this with lol

[@biancarenateelzebroek3479]

I really could use some more explenation instead of just watching. Sometime the steps are nót clear to see and a bit fast...

[@iasoRecords]

Please check out our How to Dance Bachata playlist. There are in depth video breaking down many of these steps.

[@iasoRecords]

[@SheWhoComesAtNight]

If you can do the basic two-step, you can Bachata. Remember to be fluid in the hips. The music will lead you.

[@curious69939]

For the "fast" aspect, if you haven't already done so, you could click on the "Settings" icon ("gear" icon on the bottom right corner of the screen), select "Playback Speed" and reduce the speed to what you're comfortable with.

[@ramotav]

Bianca Elzebroek. Basic bachata is four steps side to side or back and foward. After the 4th step with the same foot start again step 1,2,3,4 and continue on. Look really close to their steps. Also when dancing very importan to stay with the rhythm without loising it or getting back in pace in case you get lost. Listen to the sound of the base or listen to the sound of the bongos(little drums) both instrument also follow four steps which you can follow when dancing bachata.

Could break it down a bit slower first, pero its beautiful! Maybe a one, two, three sin la musica, then put the music on.

Hit that gear/settings symbol at the bottom right of the video and then click play settings. You can adjust speed to .75, .5, or really slow at .25 speed.

[@AdamTaubVideo]

Hi Jay Kay! We also break these steps down a bit slower in individual videos. So for instance we have one for the "Box Step" on the iASO Records channel.

[@roxxsinfiltro6135]

La mejor forma de aprender bachata para los extranjeros que nos encanta es estudiandola..si no..no hay forma de bailarla medianamente decente... Esas huevadas que hacen de dar tantos giros quebrarse todas las tipas como si les estuviera x dar algo no tiene nada que ver con la bachata real.... soy argentina pero amo la bachata me levanto escuchando bachata trabajo escuchando bachata mi día lo paso oyendo bachata.... gracias a Dios q m permitió casarme con un dominicano xq si mi marido hubiese Sido argentino me pone una estampilla en el ocote y me manda para república dominicana jajajajjaja

[@JailSquash]

For number '1. Forward and Back in Place" why are we starting with the right, and going forward, should we not be going backwards, then forwards, I'm trying to learn Dominican Bachata, and appreciate if anyone can explain.

[@AdamTaubVideo]

Hi Mo Hassan, thanks so much for the question. In the Dominican Republic, the foot a dancer will start on can vary. Many times the follow will actually start the dance, and then the lead will pick up their step. But yes, in classes, and as Bachata is taught around the world, generally the lead will start on their left foot, going to the side or back. I often times start with a half basic to the right (A step touch) and then I begin my basic. And this is certainly another common way to start. Perhaps we can cover that in a future video. This is a long way to say that culturally, the way a dance starts can vary. Thanks again for your question.

[@JailSquash]

@@AdamTaubVideo thank you so much for explaining this, what you describing is so amazing :)

[@amd3529]

I see almost everybody counting 1-2- (3 and 4) on the triple step do you know if thats part of the original bachata to ? Or is it just people who can't count a chacha.

[@iasoRecords]

Sounds like you see people dancing 'on 4'. Dancing on 1 is actually less common in DR than other timings.

[@amd3529]

@@iasoRecords i think most of them dance on one because they count in the video. And its the way people dance bachata in Europe. But i'll check it out.

[@bdemenil]

Dance teachers all teach on 1, but regular people in the DR more often dance on other timings. When dancing on 1, the triple step usually falls on 4 + 1. It can be added to a different part of the timing as a footwork, but as a part of a basic step it always replaces the tap, which falls on 4 when dancing on 1.

[@AdamTaubVideo]

The hips move as you step and change weight, gently bending and straightening your knees. You can do it, it comes from transferring weight and as you learn the steps just concentrate on doing it naturally, what feels good and works for you.
