Performance Teams
Train with us and perform ConRi-style Bachata at the Melbourne Bachata Festival, choreographed and coached by Cornel & Rithika. Everyone signs up individually — no partner needed, we'll pair you up.
How it works
Priced per person
It's $535 per person for each team you join (with a festival pass; +$50 without). Priced per person, not per couple — everyone signs up individually, even for the Couples Team. No partner? We'll pair you up.
Training & style
Routines are ConRi-style Bachata — a fusion of Bachata, Hip Hop and Salsa. Choreographed by Rithika (Ladies) and Cornel & Rithika (Couples). Your price includes training with Cornel & Rithika in Melbourne ahead of the national team performance.
