Who is this bootcamp for?
This bootcamp is perfect for complete beginners and intermediate dancers who want to sharpen their basics or learn new techniques.
Do I need a partner?
No partner is required! We rotate partners throughout the class so everyone gets the chance to practice. Usually 30 to 40 dancers join each class and you’ll switch throughout the bootcamp.
How many calories will I burn?
A 4-hour bachata session typically burns 300–700+ calories, depending on your pace and movement. That’s anywhere from 1200 to 2400 calories — plus whatever you burn during any social dancing AFTER the bootcamp!
What should I wear?
Wear comfortable clothing you can move in, such as workout attire or casual dancewear. Avoid oversized or tight, restrictive clothing.
What shoes should I bring?
Soft, comfortable shoes or dance shoes with smooth soles are ideal. Avoid rubber-bottom shoes as they make turns harder. Don’t worry — as long as you’re comfortable, you’ll be fine.
Is previous dance experience required?
Not at all! Even if you’ve never danced before, our instructors will guide you step-by-step. If you have danced, you’ll continue practicing and refining your skills by adding styling techniques — plus you’ll meet a lot of great people!
