Porque no ablando en castellano los profes ya que hay muchos latinos que los ven gracias

[@johnwhateverson334]

Thanks for teahing people who don't have another way to do so

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

John Whateverson no problem! :D

[@brittany5790]

I’m Dominican, but didn’t grow up dancing. I’ve struggled with getting down the Dominican basics while adding ladies’ styling. I took it back and watched your video. I appreciate seeing Nicole’s hip movement being a result of her footwork and her pushing into the floor/earth/ the “ma’jao” mashing that causes a slight hip flick down-out. Latin is not Kizomba going up down hips and it’s not big, tearing out hip sockets pop-locking either. I feel confident in my taps now. Natural and can focus on regaining confidence in my timing and rhythm! ¡Gracias! ❤️🇩🇴

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

no problem brittany! :D

[@romanleca4969]

focus on the body movement and weight transition. hips will come naturally. without this as basics all the footwork effort is just pointless or looks very silly at best.

[@lisaflane]

I love bachata!!!

[@Authenticsensuality]

Thankyou for the tip of digging into floor for hip movement. That’s helps a lot

[@lexxzus]

The best detailed bachata teaching & training I've seen on the web....🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Island neighbor hear from Haiti. Learning about Haiti/DR history through music, dance, spirituality. My Dominican fam suggested this video. Thank you so much

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

That's awesome! Thanks!

[@Whatnowmaria]

This was so good! I’m Puerto Rican and i never been one who was interested in dancing bachata at all growing up and now that I’m older I’m intimated cause i feel like i have no clue and everyone knows lol. Learning this made me realize as long as I’m confident it makes all the difference. I love it!

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

We are so happy to help 🙏

[@misteriozan]

I love ❤️ this! I’m Dominican and this lesson is exactly how I learned as a child w my family at home parties 🎊!

[@marchudson2762]

Finally a tutorial that teaches Dominican-style Bachata!!! Thank you. Your direction is very easy to follow. Im in ATL but travel to Santo Domingo several times a year.Now I can Bachata with confidence, bro!

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

thank you so much for watching! :D

[@frankiegonzalezsanchez5304]

you really know how to dance bachata. thanks. Regards from Dominican Republic.

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

thank you! :D

[@kepthidden]

I was blessed to have been taught this dance by a DR native at the age of 7! I remember falling in love with bachata the moment I heard "Hoja en blanco" by Monchy y Alexandra.. I'm in my 30's now y sigo enamorada (y bailando). This tutorial was hands down the best one I've come across. Sigan bachateando. With love 🤍🇸🇻

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

Wonderful! Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

Muchas Gracias!

This was amazing. I've learned a lot with you guys. Kisses from Brazil.

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

[@mariellas1271]

Tiki pum pum pa! 🤓 lol love that

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

🙌🏼😄

[@GCVIDEOPOST]

your teaching is great. I love that you film it towards and away from the camera, so I can follow those steps. Makes it easy! Gracias!

[@briarrose5208]

I love Dominican Bachata! I learned basic from my adult ESL students at our end of semester party. They had so much fun teaching their OLD Anglo teacher and I had so much fun dancing with them! Haven’t had a chance to learn more till I saw this cool vid. Thank you so much!❤️

[@TheManChise]

This is great.. just what I was looking for..hopefully the classes are all Dominican style..

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

TheManChise ty!!! We teach all styles :D check out our online course, we have a whole course also just for Dominican style 🎉🕺🏾

[@mannyveloz-i3p]

Bachata…, Dominican blues. Love the DR. My wife and I visit about twice a year. We’ve gotten pretty good at Bachata. Great video!!

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

That's awesome!

[@marthamedina8232]

My favorite Bachata instructors!!! I love Dominican Bachata and I appreciate all the different tips you guys can give us. Thank you so much !!! I love it!!!

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

no problem! thank youuuuuuuu! :D

[@Sheisbresilva]

Wow, thank you both so much for this video! It is so detailed and I really love how you both take your time and explain every step and how to do it correctly. The biggest concern I’ve had when dancing bachata with a partner was always worrying about how I’m supposed to know what step my partner is going to make next and if I have to copy them, I would always get so confused and always end up messing the flow and having to restart the dance, but after watching this video and hearing you guys say that you don’t have to do the exact same foot steps as long as you’re stepping side to side, doing a basic step in place, and following your partner while doing a square is so helpful! Thank you so much! Can’t wait to learn! Your videos definitely make it so much easier!! ❤️🙏🏽

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

So glad you found it helpful Breana! :)

[@notmytruth.thetruth.2711]

My love is Dominican and I so much enjoy the classic Dominican Bachata. So many other “versions” have turned into gymnastics.

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

😄👍

[@l.mahros993]

Yesterday I wish to learn THIS!!! Thank you so much 💋💋💋💋 Here is no teacher for this!!! This is dancing with feelings.,.. Please stay in lovely mood Layla from Germany

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

L. Mahros thank you Layla! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@TxTiger23]

You guys are so smooth and I appreciate how you guys danced the steps for us with music at the end because for gods sake all these other videos are just tutorials with no music and it’s hard to see the full picture of the dance like that. Saludos from Houston ❤️

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

cesar salazar thank you Cesar! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🕺🏾

[@juliaornelas6308]

I really like how you guys are so simple and not trying to show off....you guys are such a great dancer...I wish I can learn how to move my hips like she does😌

[@BachataDanceAcademy]

[@timidtom]

I agree, naturally the quality of the music adds a lot to the all-round lure of learning the dance. Here everything is spot-on.

[@V21IC]

This is a beautiful video! It's basic and advanced at the same time! Perfect! Why? The steps are all basic and easy. However, with the proper execution in sync with the music, it looks so advanced!

This video is amazing! Im normally a salsadanser (and not really fan of how they dance bachata at mix parties- sensual is a very neat word for it :x) But I thought I would check this out during this long quarantine and I find it great! Ive never seen the basic steps on the spot this well explained. I think Im going to get this salsa partner of mine to do this with me so we can have fun little bachata dances together in between salsa. Keep it up :)!
