“We connect, dance, and perform Bachata”

Elevate Your Dance Journey

Sharing our love of Bachata, we connect dancers in Athens, GA who love, dance and/or perform bachata. We help our our fellow bachateros and bachateras build their confidence and performance skills through weekly team training.

Our group goal is to grow the bachata scene in town by offering bachata classes, team training, special workshops with distinguished dance instructors around the US. Additionally, we encourage dancers to improve their social dance skills by connecting with dancers in the surrounding area including Atlanta, Nashville, and Asheville (NC) and by attending socials , weekenders, festivals in these area.

This year (2026) we will be attending Salsa/Bachata festivals in Asheville, NC and Atlanta where we also have the honor and privilege to perform for our fellow dancers. We can’t wait to see you there!!
