This Bachata improvisation, right after our class on Como los 90s by Kewin Cosmos, feels deeply symbolic to me.
Eight years ago, after only six months of learning Bachata in Malta, I went to a social in Barcelona. That night, I spent a large part of the evening simply observing the dancers. So many of them were incredible, but one couple in particular caught my attention.
They were dancing beautifully, truly connected to the rhythm, interpreting the music and marking every accent. Everything looked so fluid, so synchronised and so harmonious. I was completely mesmerised.
As I watched them, I remember thinking, “Are they really dancing the same dance I’m learning in Malta?”
That moment awakened two powerful feelings in me.
First, I realised that I wasn’t being taught the right foundations and that I wasn’t on the right path.
But it also sparked something much bigger inside me. “One day, when I’m ready, I need to open a school where people learn properly, where we don’t simply teach steps, but help dancers truly understand the music, connect with themselves and express who they are.”
Dancing to this song again brought me back to the dream I had eight years ago, to build a space where people could reconnect with themselves, feel free to express who they truly are and connect with others through dance.
It was a truly special moment, a reminder of where this journey began, of everything we have built together since then, and of everything that still remains to be created, developed and enjoyed. 💙
