Gratitude, emotions, and an unforgettable dance adventure in the heart of Belgium (ENG) 🇺🇸

Gratitude

Let’s start with the most important part: Carl, we are incredibly grateful to you! Thank you for inviting us once again to your amazing festival — I Love Bachata Leuven. We truly appreciate your belief in us and the opportunities you provide for our growth. Looking back, we can say it was a truly rewarding collaboration — both for us and for you. We can’t wait for the next edition in April 2026! ❤️

Before the Festival

The excitement was building even before the festival kicked off. This was our second time here, and this year, we found ourselves high up in the lineup — right alongside Melvin & Gatica, Angel & Almudena, and Juan & Sara. Oh, and did you know that Angel is the younger brother of Luis (Luis & Andrea)? We’ve known for a while, but it still excites us! Angel & Almudena — we wish you the best of luck on your journey! ❤️

Before It All Began

Initially, we were scheduled for 3 hours of classes: Masterclass, Advanced, and Open. At Carl’s request, we happily added two more hours — one to cover for Felipe & Thiago, and another to boost the Friday night pre-party workshops. Every extra opportunity to teach, connect, and dance is pure joy for us! ❤️

Friday — Travel & First Workshops

We flew in around noon, still feeling a bit tired from the day before. But spirits were high — especially thanks to Nicki’s delicious homemade sandwiches. 😋 We landed in Brussels around 7:30 PM, quick hotel check-in, and by 9:00 PM we were already starting our first workshops. The atmosphere was amazing, and Mojo (@mojoprod) captured our demo to “No Vas a Encontrar”.

Friday — White Party

After a quick nap and a delicious carbonara, we headed to the White Party. We danced for hours — the music, the vibe, and strawberry mojitos kept us on the dancefloor all night long!

White Party – pure dance & joy!

Saturday — Workshops and a Private Lesson

We woke up (thanks to McNuggets, sometimes you just need it! 😅) and taught two powerful sessions. Once again Mojo captured our demo — this time to “Millonario” and “Rosas”. Later, we had a private lesson with lovely Liana — thank you for trusting us! ❤️

Saturday — Chill and Party Time

The evening was perfect: some of the best pizza & carbonara ever, and another amazing night full of dance, conversations, and laughter.

Sunday — Last Workshops and Heading Home

Sunday came too fast! We barely made it to our final Masterclass and Open workshops — full of energy, full of amazing people asking questions and training. After that, we headed straight to the airport and safely back to Krakow.

Last workshops — tired but happy!

Conclusion

Exhausted but over the moon. Another fantastic festival. More friends, more passion, more memories. Carl — thank you for everything. See you again in 2026! ❤️ And by the way… 4 out of 5 demos: 10/10 — new content coming soon on Instagram! 🎥 Stay tuned!

I Love Bachata Leuven — We love you! <3
