- www.sequencedanceuk.com Shannah and Phil dance through the Ria Bachata to music.
This 2019 dance was not entered on the inventive circuit, but is the creation of Marianne Teconi (AISTD) to offer a fun, easy to pick up, introduction to the Bachata rhythm. The Bachata originated in the Dominican Republic and has a similar feel to the Salsa, but with slightly slower, more fluid music.
Marianne sent me the following information regarding the background of the dance
"Ria Bachata has been given it's name in memory of a dear friend who lost her battle with cancer on Friday 29th November 2019. Because she loved dancing bachata so much, I thought it would be fitting to name the Bachata sequence dance in her memory. Before she passed, I videoed my class dancing it, showed her, she loved it and tears rolled down her face. She was so touched that a dance was going to be named after her. Ria ran the classes with her husband at Nice 'n' Easy Dance Studios in Bournemouth, where I taught it and where everyone is now enjoying dancing the routine. Those of us who knew and loved Ria will always remember her every time we dance Ria Bachata. I hope everyone enjoys dancing it at their dance evenings and parties and that it brings lots of smiles to everyone - because that is what she would want"
We hope you enjoy giving this new sequence rhythm a try - and welcome any feedback you may have.

This Sequence dance Ria Bachata, is a creation from Marianne Teconi, Salsa and Latin Teacher from Bournemouth Dorset.
Marianne choreographed Ria Bachata in memory of the late Ria Mirzaria who sadly passed away a few weeks ago.
Ria and her partner Peter hosted many fun social dance evenings which were well attended at the Nice & Easy dance studios in Boscombe Bournemouth.
Ria`s warm welcome to all newcomers and regulars will never be forgotten. Also Ria had a good understanding of the sort of music people liked, and together with Peter's input, with his easy way of teaching new Sequence dances at the beginning of the evenings it was a winning combination.
God bless Ria RIP

It's called SOLO BACHATA, by Victor Victor on the The Ultimate Latin Album 5 Bang Bang :)
@@sequencedanceuk Thanks very much - it is a beautiful song
Hi, the music I use (I choreographed the routine) is ‘Senorita’ by Camila Cabello. It wasn’t allowed to be used in the video for RUclips because of copyright issues but everyone loved dancing the routine to it so please try it to that track! Thank you for your interest❤️
