Bachata Family Meeting

Bachata Family Meeting — Halle, March 2026

20–22 March 2026 | Tanzstudio Bella Soso, Halle (Saale), Germany

Open to all levels

---

Some festivals are big. Some festivals are good. This one is both — and it still feels like home.

Bachata Family Meeting is a full weekend dedicated to bachata, connection, and the kind of warm atmosphere that makes you want to come back every year. Whether you're just finding your feet on the dance floor or you've been dancing for years, you'll feel right at place here.

What's Included

• 🎓 8 hours of classes across the weekend

• 🕺 6-hour bootcamp with Osman & Jovana — technique, connection, musicality, and smoothness

• 💃 2-hour workshop with Oscar & Raquel — the roots of Sensual Bachata: technique and combinations

• 🧘 2-hour body & mobility workshop — because great dancers take care of their bodies

• 🎉 12 hours of social dancing — spread across three evenings with great DJs, coffee, cake, and snacks

• 💕 Awareness Team present throughout the event

The Vibe

This is not a festival where you get lost in the crowd. Smaller workshop groups, name tags at the bootcamp, shared food, and a genuinely welcoming community make it easy to connect — with the music, the movement, and the people around you.

We're bringing the "social" back to social dancing.

All are welcome, as long as everyone is treated with respect (see the Awareness Guide).
