Marius & Sara Social Bachata

[@gigel008]

I love this video because it shows how much you can do with very little. I feel that most of the times, the demos that dance instructors do at the end of workshops, or even classes, give beginners the wrong ideea that the movement has to be big and flashy. But in reality, a good connection and having fun goes a long way. Also, shout out to Marius Coman - my teacher - dancing in the background! I feel like I'm watching the bachata version The Expendables. 😎

Haha... Good movie reference :P Loved that. Indeed, social dancing is about having fun, enjoying the music, the story, the connection with your partner. I always say "Train Hard for More Fun", so always practice, train as best as you can so that when you dance in social you can actually do whatever you set your mind to.

That was refreshing to watch! I didn't know bachata would still look good if danced slowly like that ❤

[@MariusElenaBachata]

Ohhh yes, yes, yes. It's my favourite way of dancing it. Train hard, but dance soft :D

Glad you liked it!!

Just came back to say thank you Marius for being such an inspiration for me since I started 2 years ago. This video in particular was a reminder that a dance can actually be more enjoyable when slowed. It's surprisingly difficult to retain that knowledge without reminders like this. Tonight I had 3 beautiful and experienced follows compliment me after the dance because I was more focused on slowing down which allowed me to really feel all the different instruments in the music and more precise lead for my partner. Thank you sensei 🙏🏽

😇🥰😭 Last emoji is tears of happiness :D I am happy that what we teach actually makes dancers life better. In a world where everybody is focused on doing the wow stuff, there are to few dancers focusing on how it actually feels :D Thank you for the appreciation, for the comment, and for your story. Keep on practicing and rocking the dance flooor.

i don't know why, but i have strong feel, that this dance is not realy comfortable for Marius. Strange choice of video to publish, as for me.

[@MariusElenaBachata]

Actually it was really nice. I really like dancing like this. I don't like being a "machine gun combos" on the social dance floor😇

[@SJDunker]

@@MariusElenaBachata glad to read that.

[@georgesmith3022]

in the beginning i thought you were sleeping, ok slow but do something

[@rocketjua]

😂😂 let the man enjoy his dance

[@MariusElenaBachata]

Well... I was doing a lot. That's micro body movement. Check her reactions. Why do I have to dance like I am at a competition, it's social. I am old, can't do 100% all dances anymore 😂😂😂😂😂😂
