I had a really good lesson yesterday and it just got me to thinking about what some of my favourite or most memorable bachata moments have been and was wondering what everyone else's are, whether it's an event, a good lesson, getting to dance with or see someone you've always aspired to etc.

My top moment so far was definitely the Roma Sensual Symposium I went to last year. I'd never been to a congress before and was a bit worried about the level being too high but I needn't have worried at all, it was absolutely fine in that regard and the whole event was just fantastic. So many lessons to take part in, and I discovered a couple of new bachata dance couples that I now follow, since I enjoyed their lessons so much. Plus, the fact that it was in Rome just added to how good it was. It's a fair distance from the main part of the city so I spent a few days sight seeing then took part in the festival and loved it!

Another great memory is something that happens each year here in London and it's the bachata boat parties on the Thames in the summer. 5 hours on a boat going down the Thames dancing bachata the whole time is just such good fun. There was also one in November as well when it was dark, so seeing London all lit up while dancing was another very memorable night.

Would love to hear yours.
