Reviews for Bachata 1

Very, very fun course with a quick pace without being overwhelming. Heike and Nicolas showed us a lot of fun figures and the very often and quick partner changes keep the atmosphere lighthearted. Big recommendation!

Starting with no previous dancing experience and showing up without a partner, I was quite hesitant at the beginning. However, Alex and Eveline created a nice environment right away and made the learning process fun and rewarding. With its slower rhythm, Bachata 1 lets you get the basics fast and start dancing quickly, enjoying the classes from day 1 and building up to more complex moves.

One of the best TQ classes I have taken so far. The pacing was great, the instructions were clear, and great energy all around.

I really liked the course. Many thanks! I liked how we started and the figures of choice. It was perfect for beginners and people with some Salsa dancing experience. The course was fun!

Anna and Ruben were very funny and knowledgeable. They had a good rhythm, so that most people could catch the steps but they didn

The room is very well suited and the figures were taught in a nice way. We even went out with the teachers and some participants - that was so much fun and really useful.

What a lovely course by Anna and Ruben. Bachata 4 has quite a high level with focus on funny moves and technique, which is great! Lovely figures, music, fellow dancers and teachers, who gave lots of help and let us practice. I loved it :D
