Meet Taoufik: One of Netherlands’ biggest bachata talents, that started dancing in Eindhoven! A dancer who never expected to fall in love with Bachata, before it became his biggest passion!💃🕺
No more than 2.5 years ago, he had no idea what Bachata was. In fact, after watching a few videos, he was a 100% sure he’d never try it! But thanks to a colleague who managed to convince him, he gave a try-out class a shot and instantly fell in love with the dance. From that moment, Bachata was more than just a hobby; it became a passion and even a future goal.
Now, he invests heavily in refining his style and technique, always keeping the joy alive! The most important thing for him while dancing is to have lots of fun, while focusing on the connection with his dancepartner, the music, the technique of his own body movements and his leading.
Get ready to learn from his amazing energy at his Bachata Sensual workshop at BailaLuz Festival! Who’s excited?! 👀🔥 Favorite song: Adrenalina by DJ Husky & Charles Luis 🔥
Originally a kizombera of the Slovenian scene, she only seriously switched to salsa when she moved to Amsterdam 7 years ago and realized there was so much more to learn – something that drives her to this day. 💪🏽🔥
For her, dancing is a lovely balance between two opposites: learning how to control every single part of your body in every moment, and at the same time being able to just let go, turn off your brain and enjoy the moment.
Soon after she started teaching at 21 she realized there was nothing in life that excited her as much as sharing what she had learned so far. She loves to utilize her day job in kinesiology while dancing, focusing on the physical mechanics of the dancing itself. 👉🏼Something you can definitely expect to see in her Lady’s Styling workshop – focusing on really understanding why we move the way we move and not just trying to remember a combination.
Get ready to learn from Kristina in her salsa lady styling workshop at BailaLuz Festival! 💅🏽🥰
Favorite song: Así es la mujer, Victor Manuelle🎵
This DJ will bring the salsa and bachata tunes alive on BailaLuz, and he is no less than LIMBO LATINO, a well appreciated face in the Dutch SBK scene! He will be playing in the big downstairs room, alternating salsa and bachata music until the end of the evening. We are super happy to welcome this great DJ to our festival! ✨🔥
