Bachata Magic

A grounding and other exercises, quite useful for practice.
Otherwise, difficult to tell how to transfer the conscious approach to social dancing with random dance partners.

​I purchased a party pass for this event, and as a dancer, there are three non-negotiable requirements for a festival: a quality dance floor, proper ventilation/climate control, and a high level of social dancing.
​Unfortunately, the lack of air conditioning and ventilation was a complete dealbreaker. Whether the system was poorly designed or simply not switched on, the air was stagnant. After only two dances, I was completely drenched—my back, my hair, and my dress were soaked. It felt like trying to dance in a sauna, which is frankly unacceptable for an event of this caliber.
​I have attended over 50 festivals, and this was easily one of the worst experiences I’ve had. When you can’t breathe and can’t physically stay on the floor due to the heat, the festival has failed its attendees. I certainly won’t be returning, and I will be advising my dance community to steer clear as well. To be honest, I would have had a much better—and more affordable—night out at a local salsa or bachata club.

Bachata Magic was really a magical moment!! It was my first time there but definitely not my last :) The cozy and intimate atmosphere was really nice, we could really connect with people and create some new friendships <3 The line up was absolutely incredible! What an honor to meet Korke und Judith and to learn real Bachata from Dominican artists! thank you very much for 3 days of learning and much much fun <3 <3

Es hat mir sehr gefallen, es war sehr schön.
