What is Sensual Bachata?

"Sensual Bachata is a modern, expressive dance style from Spain that emphasizes body waves, connection, and smooth transitions. It focuses on circular movements and isolations, creating a flowing and romantic dialogue between dance partners while maintaining the authentic timing of traditional Dominican Bachata."

Kevin

Director & Senior Dance Instructor

"Originally from Ireland's west coast. I began dancing with a focus on Breakdance and Freestyle. I later joined my university's breakdance crew & even taught it for years, continuing through my master's in Scotland. My love for Salsa & Bachata began during travels in South America in 2016. After returning to Ireland, i trained at DSA & quickly rose through the ranks. With a sharp eye for detail, high energy, and a fun teaching style, I'm now a Senior Dance instructor & Director of DSA."
