Master Classes
Reserved for certified dancers. One master class on each festival day.
Certification guarantees the level, and the methodology of the class.
Master classes for certified dancers
Across the festival weekend, Bachata Geneva Festival runs a series of master classes reserved for certified dancers. These are not your regular workshops. They are built for dancers who have already earned a recognized certification and want to keep pushing.
Each master class is led by its own artists and open to holders of the matching certification. That is what guarantees a sound methodology and a class that develops the way it should: a clear structure, a real progression, and a room where everyone shares the same foundation.
Certifications are recognized via Kadens, our official partner. Claim yours there, and access to the master class unlocks automatically.
Why certification matters
It is what keeps the room sharp and the class moving forward.
A guaranteed methodology
Every class follows a sound methodology, with a clear structure and a real progression from start to finish.
A room at your level
Everyone in the room is certified, so the class can move at the right pace and go deeper into the work, with no need to stop and reset the basics.
Recognized via Kadens
Your certification is recognized through Kadens, our official partner. Once it is, access to the master class ticket unlocks automatically.
Three master classes, one each day
One master class on each festival day, same time and same room. Each class runs with 15 to 30 couples.
