​​
TRES GOLPES CLASSES
​​

Learn Dominican bachata
from the ground up


We help you feel more comfortable dancing by better understanding the music, expressing yourself more freely, and building stronger connections to yourself, your partner, and the culture behind the dance.
 

​​
CULTURE THROUGH TRADITION

Many people want to dance but feel stuck memorizing steps, overthinking the music, or wondering what to do next.

 

Dominican bachata grew out of everyday life: kitchens, patios, family gatherings, neighborhood parties, and the music people grew up around. Our classes bring that feeling into the studio through practice, play, and structure, so dancing starts to feel more natural over time.


HOW CLASSES WORK
 

Wednesdays build the foundation. Thursdays expand it.

THE MONTHLY CYCLE

 

Each month follows a four-week cycle that explores bachata's roots, evolution, and place in today's dance culture.
