Bachata, Ladies Style
Teacher Dasha
Hi everyone!
I’m Dasha and I’ve been dancing since I turned 4. As a professional ballroom dancer in the past, I’m very passionate about Latin dance. And I was very excited in 2008 when I discovered bachata. I had an excellent opportunity to learn this dance from world stars such as Ataca and Alemana, Daniel and Desiree, Gatica, Alex Ruis, Ronald and Alba, and other well-known Spanish bachata couples. Bachata is the number one social dance that you can learn. By knowing some basic steps and movements, you open your path to dance parties, interesting people, and new opportunities. The most enjoyable thing about social dances is that there are no age limits or strict requirements, and it’s all about the love of dancing.
I love integrating different movements from several dances into basic bachata with Cuban spice. The only teacher in Hong Kong who won the footwork competition, run by Ataca and Alemana in 2013. Once you try it, you won’t stop dancing.

Majoring in Hip-hop.

In 2010, when I was confused about my life, dancing made me see the dawn, let me see that there is something in life called a dream, and let me learn what perseverance is. I also tried different kinds of dances constantly, and experienced the diversity of each dance, which opened up my different perspective on life.
As a teacher, it is dance that brings me the hope of life, so I always have a vision in my heart, hoping that I can bring the best teaching to students, so that students can experience the content in the simplest and clearest way, and learn how to stick to it and experience a sense of accomplishment.

作為一名舞者，我經常聽到人們對於舞蹈天賦的討論，人總想要得到“自己有天賦”的肯定答復，才敢真正踏上征程。但我覺得天賦就是熱愛。能踏在舞房地板上持續練習、持續克服挫敗感、持續感到快樂的人就是有舞蹈天賦的人。
我希望將舞蹈永遠進行下去，並將我對舞蹈的理解與熱情分享給別人，盡我所能告訴每一個熱愛舞蹈的人“你已經是有天賦的那位了”，現在開始就是最佳的時機。
K-pop Teacher Kia
Hello, my name is Jingxuan Xu, you can call me Kia,
I have been in contact with dance since I was 4 years old, I have tried ballet, Latin and so on, until I finally became a street dancer, I specialize in jazz and urban, I was the second runner-up of the National Dance Championships of the China University Street Dance Championships in 2019, and the third runner-up of the Dance Vision Dance Championships in 2021.
All these experiences have made me who I am now. Many people’s first impression of me is that I’m very introverted and shy, but whenever the music starts and I get into a dancing state, I’m really “a different person”, and I’m very thankful for the changes that dance has brought to me, and I’m also thankful for all the people I’ve met because of dance. I always emphasize in class that we should look at ourselves, and then you will gradually find that the energy brought by dance can actually exist in every scene of your life, and then you will become more and more self-confident and brave, which is the process of letting yourself spiral upward and slowly become better. Favorite quote for everyone, I hope you will always love dancing.
“Dancing itself should be a constant process of sensing your body and trying to accept and like yourself.”
