Many many thanks!

[@zed9zed]

This is fantastic - it's an entire basic course in one video, with examples from both sides. Thanks so much for making this.

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

You’re welcome! We are so happy to have you here with us! 😊

[@mairena2000]

The more I watch this video the more I like it the more I appreciate the moves you teach. Very concise, love the different angles you show, no talking, right to the point. You are simply the BEST

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

Thank you so much for the positive feedback, we really appreciate you!

[@francissantos7448]

Thank you. It's nice to review the basics. Being seniors, we find the forgotten moves novel again.

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

It’s always good to review and train the basics 😊

[@Ramilsky]

One of the best tutorials for Bachata. Thx for all your work!

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

Thank you so much! We are very happy that you like it! 😊

[@MichelMichelMann]

Great tutorial, thanks!

[@YoungKrieger]

This is like the Best Bachata video I've watched on KZbin, thanks for sharing it!

[@acpjr]

This is video is very good. I *love* the exaggerated prep on 3-4 when doing the "change places" and other moves. We beginners must know exactly when to prep.

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

Happy you like it! 😊 yes we try to put a lot of emphasis in the preparation because we feel it is very important to have a smooth and nice dance

[@kearneymichele1022]

Great - clear - realistic - dance video. Love how you do it on the slower side, show different angles, and not a lot of talking......visual works best, at least when doing a video (duh). Great JOB!!

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

Thank you so much Michele, so happy you like it! 😊

[@fayzzzsaechao1755]

Great video! I love how they start out with music and the basics from different perspectives. It doesn't waste time talking and breaking things down so much that the viewer loses interest.

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

Thank you so much! 😊 so happy you like it and thank you so much for the feedback!

[@Leoninmiami]

you two are the best!! really! the multiple angles, the pace, the quality of the music and production. Its the whole package.

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

So happy you like it! 😊

[@anthonykeve8894]

Your tutorial was the first I that caught my attention. The first I watched. And the first to which I subscribed! I’m look forward to studying all your videos. Muchas Gracias!

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

Welcome to our family! 😊

[@paarlsbkvids]

Amazing video. So good to see the basic steps being taught like this. Most people miss this and go straight for the advanced level stuff, missing the basic footwork. Well done, team.

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

Thank you so much! 😊 yes, it is very important to have good basis, otherwise it will be very difficult to improve and do difficult moves in the future. That’s why we always focus on the basics and on having a structured learning process 😊

[@2226robin]

WHAT ! you call this basic step ? my wife and I used only HALF of what we learn here. When we danced at the party all of our friends “dropped their jaw”. 😊

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

@2226robin happy to hear!! 😊

[@zeropain9319]

Just amazing, I can dance all night with just these moves, thank you guys :)))

You are simply gorgeous to watch (great couple) and have great learning lessons, keep it up. 😀❤ I just started with advanced lessons at dancing course. Your subscriber and bachata enthusiast 😊

[@ayadsalim14]

You are SSSSSUUUUUUPPPPPEEEERRRR I searched alot to lern Bachata and your learning is clear and good Thank you

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

Welcome to the family! 😊

[@GC1]

Beautiful and easy steps... You guys make it simpler than anybody... I love bachata but I know very few moves... Now I can practice some alone and surprise my dancing partner, she is very good and I know I am not -yet- to her dancing level! Just a side tip: Dancing Bachata or another dance... Leather shoes are the best, Tennis shoes ok for the demo but your steps would look nicer sliding on the dancing floor 🙂 Cheers! Thank you for sharing!

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

Thank you so much for the feedback! Welcome to the family! 😊

[@faster7116]

Guys, I really liked it! I have no dancing experience, and your easy, soft manner without harsh and complicated movements is very suitable for people like me. I would also like to say that you are a very harmonious and stylish couple.

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

Thank you so much! I’m so happy that you like it and also thank you for the compliment 😊 we welcome you to the Bachata community!

[@santhiyag1650]

Fantastic. You both beautifully covered all the basic moves elegantly. The music you chose is perfect. Can you tell me what the song is? It is a nice song to practice. I really appreciate.

[@Kokoriko-f8j]

Looks so easy, elegant, light

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

Happy you think that! 😊

[@Павел-к2щ7т]

Огромное спасибо! Наконец то я понял как должен выглядеть сам танец!! Раньше я только знал набор связок, а благодаря вашим стараниям, сам танец!)

[@Pasha_Seba]

Плюсую, связки это конечно здорово, но понимания не дает. Все равно что научиться играть на гитаре песню по ютубу- песню ты сыграешь, но понимания музыки как таковой это не даст

[@Dragonaight]

Awesome thank you for this!!!

[@MrRusee44]

Hey Guys, I've just came across this video. Honestly this is the best beginner routine video on KZbin! Few of them are a bit intermediate but this content is huge amount of value! Thank you

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

That’s true, at the end we included some move which are a bit more complicated. We are so happy you like it, thank you for your comment! 😊

[@mrrownel]

I concur fully! I have looked at several beginner videos and this is the most comprehensive and easy to follow. Big thanks!

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

Thank you 🤗

[@dougdavis2325]

I love this. Not a whole lot of filler, straight to the moves. The music could have been synched better at some points, but I love the moves.

[@gailbailey6945]

Thank you Roberto and Magdelena for sharing your skills and teaching us how to execute all of the different turns😍😍😍

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

[@pavelsebastianovich1450]

Thank you for the video, I usually pick up 3-5 moves from KZbin before going on the social dance, today is the day :) will take some starting from #11

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

Wonderful! Let us know how it goes!

[@pavelsebastianovich1450]

@@RobertoyMagdalena It went really well, the move I had problems with is a slide. I'm not sure how to indicate it, out of about 6-7 attempts to do slide with different partners- only once it worked out well, in the rest cases- partner didn't feel it's coming :S How I'm indicating slide? +how I'm indicating #16 Walk Her / Paséala?

[@AugustoTentori]

Thanks for all the great videos. I find it challenging leading into the follow's half turn without them going into the pretzel turn. Any tips?

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

Hey there! It is important that you block her turn and redirect her steps at the right time. To do this you put your hand/arm on her hips and you do a “step-tap-step-tap. If you do it too late she will continue her normal turn and you will end in the pretzel.

[@AugustoTentori]

Thanks so much for the response. I'll give it a shot!

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

Let us know how it goes :)

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

That’s awesome! Hope you keep enjoying our content! 😊

[@panagiotismavridis1922]

Very nice. I would say the level is towards improvers/intermediate. Just that there were not very very complicated moves. however, it is nice because even with these moves you can make a dance so much more beautiful.

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

Thanks a lot for the feedback! 😊 We are happy you like it

[@TertiaryChrome]

Very elegant moves, although some of them could qualify as intermediate. I've started to learn bachata this year, and I noticed it's quite tricky to inform a dancing partner about the feet moves you want to execute. Stil, this is very good learning material, many thanks !

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

True! Some moves are not for complete beginners, more an improver level. Keep practicing and focusing in the preparation and also the tension and frame that you both have 😊

[@alexanderappel8779]

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

Happy you like it!! Takes a while, but practice makes progress! 😊

[@BlackyRay_Patrick]

@@RobertoyMagdalena that's not what I have meant. You did put those Figures so well together. If you think about many dancing schools teaching you one Figure per lesson and having that maybe only ones a week. This would take really long.

[@RobertoyMagdalena]

That’s true! It’s very important to have a very good course structure to make sure the students make good progress!
