Is Bachata losing its essence?

In Part 3 of this conversation with Antonio Laguna, we talk about one of the most controversial topics in the dance scene: Jack & Jill competitions and the shift from connection to performance.

We break down:
• Why Bachata is becoming more performative
• The role of validation, ego and social media
• How competition changes the energy of socials
• Why many dancers feel disconnected
• What the dance scene actually needs

This episode goes beyond dance — it’s about human behavior, ego and connection.
