Natalie Topalidou

Natalie is a professional Bachata and Bachazouk dancer from Cyprus with over 19 years in dance and 13 years of bachata experience. Her journey began long before bachata — she trained and taught belly dance, with a rich background in modern dance, ballet, rhythmic gymnastics, and traditional folk styles, shaping her into a highly versatile and expressive artist.

Her love for bachata was born from connection — the silent communication between leader and follower, the trust, the shared energy. As she explored deeper into the dance, she fell in love with its fusion styles, particularly Bachazouk. Drawn to its musical richness, elasticity, and flowing technique, she found a style that aligned perfectly with her obsession for body isolations, sensual movement, and expressive storytelling through motion.

Today, Natalie is:

A certified instructor under Sara Panero (Lady Style), Daniel & Desirée (Partnerwork L1-L3), ALC Dance Academy (Kizomba), and Masa & Polina (Bachazouk).
