Unscary Saturdays | Dominican Bachata

Created by Siobhan Davies Studios

Join this introduction to Dominican Bachata, in a welcoming and generous space. - This event will be BSL interpreted.

Going to a dance class can be scary! Unscary Saturdays are inclusive classes open to all ages and abilities, from professional dancers to untrained enthusiastic movers. The aim is to dismantle the unhelpful pressures and sense of intimidation that can often be felt in dance spaces.

This is a chance to try out dance styles that you’ve always wanted to give a go but felt too scared OR that you did long ago but feel out of practice with now. Come with a keenness to explore movement and an openness to try stuff. Children 12 years and under must be accompanied by a participating adult.

This workshop will be an introduction to Dominican Bachata, led by one of the leading Bachata teachers in the U.K. Gabriel Bravo Rivera, a specialist in traditional Bachata from Dominican Republic, he believes in continually learning from others to keep improving

Expect progressive footwork, partner work and plenty of fun in a supportive environment for a good challenge.

Please wear comfortable clothing and suitable footwear.
