Bachata Under the Stars
This is our FREE community event held at Chisholm Creek. Surrounded by more than 20 restaurants, people ate and then enjoyed a night of fun latin dancing under the stars. The family-friendly event is starting to become a popular regular event on our calendar.
Raza/BailaOKC Festival
This was our first collaboration with RAZA Dance studio in Arkansas. Instructors came in from Texas, Arkansas, Kansas, New York and the Dominican Republic to enjoy a weekend full of dance workshops and social dancing. We can't wait to continue and grow this dance festival.
Calderon Dance Festival
A festival celebrating the life of Shannon Calderon and her vision of building an accessible community that creates diverse and equitable opportunities in dance. BailaOKC was honored to be included as the bachata instructors for the festival.
Pinto Picasso Concert
BailaOKC and Bachamor came together to bring bachata sensation singer Pinto Picasso to Oklahoma for the first time ever. He performed all of his past and current hit songs, which was followed by an amazing dance social at Resonant Head in Oklahoma City. Pinto's voice sounded better in person!
BailaOKC Festival
The first full festival of it's kind to come to Oklahoma City was a success. Headliners from Dallas, New York, and Mexico came to teach dance workshops, along with several regional instructors as well. There was also a pre-party social and a Saturday night social. During the social bachata superstar Dani J performed live in concert.
Dani J Concert
Easily the highlight of the festival was Dani J performing live in concert. It was his first time in Oklahoma, and really enjoyed our city and the people. The upbeat hits were followed by Dani J sitting at a keyboard for a more intimate version of some of his ballads. After, Dani J spent most of the night dancing at the social with everyone.
Halloween Grand Opening
For our grand opening weekend, we invited San Diego's most popular dance instructors from Majesty in Motion to come to OKC for the first time. They taught salsa and bachata workshops during the day, and we held a very fun Halloween costume contest social.
Summer Weekender
For our very first event, we invited 4-time world champion dancer Bryant Ayala to come to OKC to teach some salsa and bachata workshops. Afterwards, Bryant danced the night away at the latin dance social. We were able to partner with several local dance studios to bring the event to life.
