Happy Dancer I had started learning Bachata at a school near me which closed for about 6 months so in frustration I went online and found BDAO, it was the best thing I’ve ever done for my dancing. The course is so clear and well put together, you not only learn the dance moves but even more importantly how to mix the moves together which makes your time on the dance floor so much more relaxing and fun. I now have a smile on my face while dancing.

Wonderful Teachers! Nicole and Demetrio are wonderful teachers. They truly care about and are dedicated to their student’s dance growth. They clearly explain what may at first seem like complex dance moves and patterns. They have created an inclusive and welcoming environment where they are eager to share all of their knowledge. I highly recommend learning from them to build or strengthen your foundational understanding of bachata.

Master teachers with a killer syllabus What I like most about Demitrio and Nicole is that they've compiled a syllabus that any master teacher would be proud of. It progresses logically as it layers the more complex figures on top of the basics, which a lot of instructors aren't that good at. Many great dancers leave a lot to be desired when it comes to teaching. But this team breaks things down beautifully. They take the time to explain when a demonstration alone can't suffice. Finally, the combination of the modern sensual style with the traditional is exactly what I was looking for.

Clarity, accuracy and practical explanation We learned with your courses the PROPER ACCURATE way of executing the cross body lead, the loops, the angling of the body. Higher intermediate moves are still explained in such accurate and clear way that we never got lost. We are much more confident and loving your practical tips. You made our dance so much more fun.

One of the best online courses (of any… One of the best online courses (of any subject!) I have ever taken. It’s both thorough and concise in teaching bachata moves, concepts, and the finer details so I never felt overwhelmed as someone completely new to dancing. The best part of this course is how the content is ordered is structured; each video teaches you the fundamentals you necessary to progress to the learn the next skill, and distills the fundamentals into combinations that you can use when you’re out dancing. The bonus music playlist alone is almost worth the entire cost. As a complete beginner to dance, doing this course helped me go from zero to social dancing. Highly recommended!
