Spanish students, who performed the dance they learned at the Spanish Club Dinner this year.\u00a0 This performance was only one of many throughout the night.<\/p>\n<p>Bachata is a style of dance that originated in the Dominican Republic and is now danced all over the world.\u00a0 It is an eight-beat dance like the salsa.\u00a0 The basics are three steps with a Cuban hip motion followed by a tap which can include a hip movement.\u00a0 The knees are slightly bent to allow for better hip motion.\u00a0 Most of the dancer&#8217;s movement is generally in the lower body.<\/p>\n<figure><a
