I found a new love to dance with sensual bachata. It's really different from typical club dancing because there are steps and moves to learn, and it takes at least a year to become decent. There is a significant investment of time, money, and energy. It might be difficult to navigate these social dancing communities if you truly want to "socialize" because there are frequently cliques or individuals who only attend to dance. I'm wanting to hook up or just casually date as I improve and consider becoming a coach or compete. Has anyone had success in a community like this before? I wholly accept and practice bachata social dance etiquette on where to touch and where not to touch, but I also don't want to be confused by ladies who are flirting or not on the dance floor. For those in the scene, what were your experiences? Should you engage in open casual dating here?
