BachaTre

BachaTre BachaTre is a combination of two words: Bachata & Tampere. Simply put, we're located in Tampere, Finland, and we love Bachata! DJ Pecadora).

More than that though, our aim is to share our love of Bachata with everyone in Tampere and beyond. The "Tre" in BachaTre also means three, referring to the members of our group: Matti Valtonen (a.k.a. DJ Machata), Petri Nieminen (a.k.a. DJ Pies Locos) and Petra Cal (a.k.a. Together, these 3 crazy "Bachaholics" are constantly involved in various Bachata events locally and abroad. We organize, tea

ch, DJ, or simply participate in such events. The most popular event we organize is the weekly Bachata party in Tampere, Finland. It's every Monday night from 8pm till midnight at Bistro 10+ Club, Hämeenkatu 10. This weekly party is for dancers of Bachata and other Latin dances alike. In addition to Bachata, we play Salsa, Merengue, Kizomba, Cha Cha, Reggaeton with some other random surprises too. Finally, and most importantly, we'd like to acknowledge an additional unofficial member of BachaTre: it's all the people who participate in our events. Without them, we would be nothing. Seeing everyone come to our lessons and join our parties week after week makes everything we do all worth while. It's such a joy to be able to share our passion and to have everyone enjoy and have fun.

Hello BachaTre community,

Oliver Paredes has posted on his Facebook wall, “I am just wondering where Bachatre will put their head now after those news.”

We are not exactly sure what he means by his statement. The wording suggests that maybe Bachatre should be ashamed about this new case reported in the news? In any case, we will use this opportunity to make our own statement.

On the 12th of March 2013, we made an announcement that BachaTre would no longer host the Monday night parties. At the time, we had no idea of what was coming but we did feel that our efforts to create a healthy and safe Latin dance environment were in vain. We felt that we lacked the support of the general Latin dance community in Tampere and we therefore felt powerless to prevent any undesirable behavior at our parties.

It’s possible, even likely, that the victims and the accused have attended our Monday night parties. However, we are not the only ones organizing Latin dance parties in Tampere. If the victims and the accused have attended our parties then it is very likely that they have attended other Latin dance parties in Tampere or elsewhere in Finland (or even abroad).

So why is Oliver mentioning us specifically? Is it because we tried to create a safe environment and failed? Is this something that we, as BachaTre, should feel ashamed of? We don’t think so. Is it not better to try and fail rather than not try at all? We believe we can hold our heads high knowing that at least we tried our best.

We may not be hosting Monday night parties anymore but we will continue to give our support to anyone who wants to promote a clean and safe Latin dance environment.

Sincerely,
BachaTre

BachaTre would like to thank everyone for the amazing year!

I think we can replace the word Salsa with Bachata or just Latin dancing. It's about the family we have and the great feeling dancing brings to us. It's not about looks, size or skills - it's about having fun together

Lovely Amy Mills and her amazing energy!
