Is there any difference between Bachata and salsa?
Yes! Let’s see the difference. Salsa includes 3 steps (2 fast steps and a slow one, the so-called “pause”). There are different variations of the dance, according to the beat on which beat to start the movements. The options are two — starting on the “one” (this is the traditional and popular performance style in Los Angeles) or on the “two” as it is in New York. In other words, your first salsa step can start on the first beat — the strong one, or on the second beat. Other than that, the steps in both performance styles are similar.

When performing the Bachata, the knees are almost stuck together to create a movement from the hips.
The Bachata dance allows can easily be performed in different types of distance between dancing partners: a distant grip (in the salsa), a medium to a moderate or even close contact. The most preferred grip is the close one, because of the specific nature of the dance (it is not a coincidence that the Bachata is called the “dance of love”).
The musical rhythm of the salsa is 4/4, resembling the one of the meringue dance. The Bachata has a more syncopated rhythm, also known as “clave”. The latest, modern Bachata contains different styles, so it’s not a twist of fate to find a mix of salsa, electric sounds and also other suitable types of latin sounds. Among the most popular Bachata artists we can mention Luis Vargas, Aventura, Prince Royce, Juan Luis Guerra and Xtreme.
