A Salsa Bachata and Kizomba Podcast for all things empowerment in SBK latin dancing! TED Podcast is a space for different voices in our dance scene to be celebrated and have conversations that matter in order to promote more understanding, accountability and responsibility in our dance scene through the value we share with listeners. Creating safer spaces, building confidence, setting boundaries, respecting culture, whether you dance salsa, bachata, kizomba or all three, on this podcast we hear from dancers with all sorts of backgrounds and interests - teachers, organisers, DJs and social dancers alike - every dancer has a story to tell, be it through events, lessons, teaching, organising, socials, friendships, dating, support, abuse, power. Whether you have been dancing for 20 minutes or 20 years, we all deserve to dance on our own terms, and shine our own light.
