The 2026 bachata lineup at the Dance Casa continues to expand with the next announcement that means a lot tous.
We are delighted to have Eliza Kariieva on board, a globally acclaimed bachata teacher, a professional dancer, and a choreographer from Ukraine. 💃✨
Moreover, it is very symbolic as the dance house came to life in Ukraine in the first place. This union feels like a very strong full, circle moment.
