Bachata Shoes

It’s one thing to say it, but quite another to have lived it. Here at Burju Shoes, all of our shoes meet the critical and keen eye of Burju Perez, the company owner and a former international competitive salsa dancer and choreographer, who endured the same kind of pain and struggles that dancers continue to experience. As such, Burju is determined to change this negative trend by creating womens dance shoes that can be worn both on and off the dance floor to the market, and so that means that comfort is the number one priority for our customers.

How Bachata shoes help you dance

Bachata dance originated in the Dominican Republic and while there are traditions to it the dance has changed as it spread across the globe and continues to evolve as new dancers incorporate modern dance moves and styles into it. Movement of the hips is key to the whole dance and gives it a certain identity and energy. A three-step with Cuban hip motion that is followed by a tap and a hip movement on the fourth beat make up the basics of the dance. As such, with emphasis on the hip movement, it makes sense that dancers bend their knees slightly to make this motion more fluid and effortless. Wearing a pair of bachata shoes can help your legs be in the correct bent position while stabalizing your heel at the same time. Our dance boots are incredibly popular for this style of street Latin and we have a myriad of options to choose from.

While most will perceive Bachata dance as a sensual dance it was actually originated to convey feelings between two people. Again, the key to this is in the hips and if you are dancing the Bachata with your partner, or loved one, the more frequent and smooth the movement of the hips is the greater are your feelings for them. So, if you’re not too fond of using words to tell someone what you feel, you could try to let your body do the talking!
