About this event

Bachata Escape is a 10-day bachata retreat across the Dominican Republic, from February 6 to 16, 2027, designed to experience dance, culture, and adventure in a small group. Throughout the trip, the itinerary goes through Santo Domingo, Jarabacoa, Cabarete, Santiago, and Samaná, combining authentic Dominican bachata classes with local experiences. The retreat starts in Santo Domingo, with accommodation on Calle Arzobispo Meriño in Ciudad Colonial. The exact property and arrival details should be confirmed with the organizers.

During these days, the program includes more than 12 hours of bachata classes with Dominican instructors, plus workshops and opportunities to dance in social settings. There are also concerts and parties with live music, along with excursions to explore beaches, rivers, and natural spots, and cultural tours in key places connected to the origins of bachata. The experience is designed for those who want to learn and dance with locals, go beyond typical tourism, and connect with everyday life in the country.

The package includes accommodation with daily breakfast, private transportation for the included activities, and on-site support during the retreat. Everyone, from curious beginners to experienced dancers, is welcome; the main thing is to bring an open mind and a desire to share. Hosts Fraimy and Nadine lead the retreat.
