Bachata classes in Sofia at a glance
We found 8 schools in Sofia that teach Bachata. Right now only Ritmo Dance Studio (4.9 ★, 208 Google reviews) has a rating in our data; for the other schools we have not collected a Google rating yet, so their score is marked "not yet available" rather than guessed. The full list is on Bachata Sofia: the best dance schools 2027.
Below is what four schools say on their own websites. Group start dates are as published in November 2026 and will pass, so use them as a guide to how each school works and confirm the current group with the school.
Pambos Dancing Center (Los Pambos)
Pambos Dancing Center is one of the schools people look up by name. We have not collected a Google rating for it yet, so we cannot give a star rating or review count, and we do not publish invented reviews. What its website (in Bulgarian) says:
- Adult Latin dances: salsa, bachata and kizomba, plus adult Greek dances and programmes for children, teenagers and women.
- The season opened on 5 October 2026, and a new adult beginner Bachata group in Sofia starts on 9 November 2026.
- Published prices in euro: a single visit costs 10; 8 visits cost 50; 16 visits cost 90 (adults).
- Main instructors named on the site: Pambos Agapiou and Elisaveta Hristova, with Elina Doychinova as instructor.
- The weekly timetable is on a separate page of the site. The page does not mention a trial class; the single-visit price is the closest option.
Its profile, with the data we hold, a link to the website and Audience Award voting, is at Pambos Dancing Center · Bachata Sofia · reviews and rating. To read reviews, open the Google Maps link on that page: ratings and comments there come from students, not from us.
Ritmo Dance Studio, PaLante and Latin Force
- Ritmo Dance Studio: address on its site is ul. Yordan Yosifov 8B, Studentski grad, with a second beginner location at NDK. Salsa & Bachata group 1 (absolute beginners) starts on 19 October 2026 on Mondays and Wednesdays at 18:30; group 2 (beginners) starts on 10 November 2026 on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 21:30; the NDK beginner group started on 15 September 2026 on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 18:30. Prices are on a separate page of the site.
- PaLante: Rakovski 78, in the centre, 50 metres from the Opera according to its site. The beginners class runs every Tuesday and Thursday from 18:20, and the listed content covers solo steps and three combinations; a separate advanced Bachata class on Tuesdays is listed too. The site is available in English and Bulgarian.
- Latin Force Dance Studio: three locations (Tsar Samuil 50 in the centre, Tsarigradsko shose 101 in Pliska and Osogovo 2 at Mall Sofia). The site lists 15 Bachata groups among 30+ styles, a discount of up to 25 % for visits with cards, and a timetable that is updated on its own schedule page.
How we prepared this guide
In November 2026 we read the websites of Pambos Dancing Center, Ritmo Dance Studio, PaLante and Latin Force, and used the October 2026 Google data from our list. We have no Google rating for Pambos, PaLante, Latin Force, Paletro, Dance Station or Salsa Diva yet, and we have not read the sites of the last three, so we say nothing about them beyond their listing. Nothing here is invented. Run one of these schools and something is wrong or missing? Enter your school for free or write to us.
How to choose a Bachata class in Sofia
Three things matter most when you compare schools, and the websites we read differ on each:
- Start date: beginner groups open on fixed dates (for example 9 November at Pambos, 10 November at Ritmo). Join at the start, not in the middle of a course.
- Location: Sofia schools use several districts (Studentski grad, centre, Pliska, a mall). Check the neighbourhood and how you will get there in the evening.
- Price model: Pambos publishes visit packs (1, 8 or 16 visits); other schools put prices on a separate page or do not publish them. Compare the price per class, not the pack size.
- Language: the schools' sites are in Bulgarian (PaLante also in English). If you do not speak Bulgarian, ask by message whether the class is held in English before you book.
If it is your first time, our guides Bachata für Anfänger (German) and Bachata Grundschritt explain the basic step, and the Eastern Europe ranking shows all cities.
