History of Bachata

The History of Bachata is clearly explained in Access Ballroom's post. Check it out when you get the chance. It is very interesting and makes you look at it in a different light.

here is a bit of info from it.

Bachata Sensual was created in Cádiz, Spain by Korke Escalona and Judith Cordero. Korke learned the basics of bachata in 1998. But with no more information than the basic step (four steps to the side), he started developing his own dance style by using moves from different dances.
