An Angel at Last

I had so much fun performing with Tony Lara’s team at the bachata festival! The theme of the choreo and music is “Angels” and we looked very angelic indeed in our white costumes.
I was especially smiley because it was my “coming back” performance. After fracturing a bone (fell off a horse in January) I couldn’t do it at the Sydney Salsa Congress and I felt more than happy to have a chance to show months of training on stage.
Performing for me is a metaphysical experience, it’s a connection with major illuminating forces, with the Universe, with mainstream of life; Dressed as an Angel! Even More! Although I have to tell you: those bachata angels are a bit naughty. My mom called and asked only one thing after seeing the video in Facebook:
- Are Angels supposed to be sexy?
To my fellow Angel Dancers: she thought we were very sexy, yuuuhuuu! After all it is bachata.
So I was there smiling my teeth out to the public. But being there doesn’t give you the sensation of the whole group. I know my partner and I were ok, no mistakes, smiling to each other, he even remembered to look at me at the bachatango step, so all was good, but when I saw the video, the whole group dancing, all six couples, I went: WOW!
It is not a hard routine, it doesn’t have acrobatics and many hard-funky steps. It is soft, and beautiful, and sexy, and lovely and we looked clean and oh so nice! It was such a surprise, because it was the first video I saw of the whole group and impressed me, I was proud and happy to be part of it.
Congratulations my Angels!
We rocked! I mean we Bachated!
