🎉BachaMe VII - Back to the Roots 🎶

Too many dancers today know how to lead waves, headrolls, and sensual moves...
But when a traditional bachata song starts playing - they freeze. They can’t feel the groove. They don’t know what to do.

That’s what Back to the Roots is all about.
This festival is here to fill the gaps - and help dancers grow.

We’re not turning this into a 100% traditional bachata music event - not at all.
But we believe every dancer should feel confident and connected when any bachata is played - especially the ones from where it all began.

We’ll focus on:
💃🏽 Footwork and movement that connects to the music
🎶 Feeling the rhythm and understanding the roots
🕺 Exploring the Dominican foundation of bachata
🌱 Building confidence to enjoy and express yourself in every style

✨ Open to all levels: whether you're just starting or have years of experience

What makes this festival special?
Unlike big events where you barely see the artists, this one is intimate and personal.
There are only 50 full passes available - that’s it.

You’ll get real feedback in workshops, and sometimes you’ll even dance with the artists. They rotate. They connect. They don’t just perform - they dance with you.

8 workshops, 2 parties, and real connection - with space for all styles, and a focus on becoming a complete bachata dancer.
