Bachata is a genre of Latin dance and music that originated in the Dominican Republic, characterized by a distinctive four-count basic step with a hip movement on the fourth beat, danced in close partner hold. Social dancers and dance instructors practice it in Latin dance communities worldwide, often alongside salsa and merengue at social dance events. It has evolved into multiple styles, including traditional Dominican bachata and modern sensual bachata.
