Yorkseed Dancing & Connection Night: Bachata Workshop, Web Summit Lisbon
This event is part of Yorkseed Passport Series: Web Summit Lisbon 2025 Edition
The Art of Partnership — On and Off the Dance Floor
In business, as in dance, success depends on reading your partner, finding your rhythm, and moving together toward a shared vision. Join us for an unforgettable evening where founders and innovators trade pitch decks for dance steps and discover the surprising parallels between bachata and building ventures.
This beginner-friendly workshop offers Web Summit attendees a unique opportunity to step away from the conference floor and into a different kind of partnership — one guided by music, movement, and authentic human connection. Whether you're a solo founder, leading a team, or navigating investor relationships, the fundamentals of leading and following translate directly to the dynamics that make or break business partnerships.
What to Expect:
Led by Nóra and Miguel, two passionate instructors who understand that the best partnerships blend complementary strengths, you'll discover:
The fundamentals of bachata — a conversation without words
How to lead with clarity and follow with trust (essential skills in any boardroom)
Basic patterns you can confidently use the same evening
The joy of genuine connection through movement
Your Instructors:
Hungarian-born Nóra found her voice through movement — from ballroom to contemporary ballet — before surrendering to the soulful call of bachata sensual. Her background in communication and strategic leadership brings unique insight to the art of connection.
Miguel grew up immersed in the vibrant dance culture of Venezuela and Madeira, where his mother's legacy as a dance teacher shaped his destiny. His journey through salsa led him to bachata, where technical precision meets passionate expression.
