Can you dance bachata to non-bachata versions of songs? Does it change anything?
Post Body

I'm a big fan of some of the latin artists who happen to do a lot of mainstream pop stuff with a latin flavour along with their actual latin songs, such as Enrique Iglesias or Marc Anthony. My question is, is it possible to dance bachata sensual to non-bachata versions of latin songs, and if so, does it change how do you anything? Or do you just do the same counts? I'm thinking of things like this:

Enrique and Whitney

Thanks for any help.

EDIT: I mean bachata sensual mainly, as that's what I prefer and practise the most.

Thanks, Dean! Don't worry, I'll be sticking to the likes of Enrique and Marc for this - not a merengue in sight (or sound!).

Thanks for this, I did think that most pop songs being 4 beats meant it would lend itself to bachata, good to have that confirmed. And don't worry, I have many disguises with which to evade the long arm of the bachata law 😁

Ah I'm not in the DR, I'm in the UK, but if I ever make it to the DR, I'll keep that in mind. One of our instructors posted a video of them dancing in the DR just a couple of weeks ago and I could see a slight difference in the way they were doing it compared to how I'm learning.

Thanks! That's one of the things I was wondering, whether I can still do the normal counts or if it would have to be all body movements etc.
