Build Skills You Can Take to the Social Floor
Level 1 gives you time to build on your introduction. Practice consistently and become more familiar with the music, your movement, and dancing with different partners.
Rhythm & Movement
Work on Bachata timing, basic footwork, turns, body movement, and beginner styling.
Connection & Confidence
Explore partner connection, social dance etiquette, and combinations you can practice outside class.
DF Dance Studio is in South Salt Lake. Alongside classes, our Salsa and Bachata social nights offer opportunities to meet other dancers and keep practicing.
Before You Start
I have never danced Bachata. Where should I begin?
Start with Intro to Latin Dancing or the Beginner Bachata Bootcamp. Both introduce foundational skills before weekly Level 1 classes. Compare the starter options.
Do I need a partner?
No. You can come on your own. Partner rotation gives you opportunities to practice with different people.
What do leader and follower mean?
These are partner-dance roles. The leader initiates movement ideas through connection; the follower responds and contributes to the dance. If you are unsure which role to choose, ask the studio for guidance.
Do I need a membership for my first class?
No. You can purchase a $25 Intro Drop-In or a $60 Beginner Bachata Bootcamp. Memberships are also available if you want to continue attending classes.
What should I wear?
Wear comfortable clothes and shoes that let you move and turn without too much grip. See the new student guide for more information.
What comes after Intro or Bootcamp?
Continue with Bachata Level 1 and build your timing, connection, and confidence through regular practice.

Start with the basics, meet other dancers, and give yourself something new to look forward to.
