About us

BachataMe – An online platform, a digital library, and an empowering community

Founded in 2025 by Yasmin Casaca, BachataMe exists to empower bachateros to reach their full potential, build confidence, and dare to dream beyond limits. At the same time, we want to develop the bachata world into a more positive, healthy, respectful, and inclusive community. Because when we grow through dance, society grows too.

BachataMe is created for dancers who want more than just steps, it’s a space where passion meets progress, and autenticity.

We bring together inspiration, knowledge, and community to support bachateros at every stage of their journey – from beginners finding their first confidence on the dance floor, to experienced dancers looking for new challenges and growth.

At BachataMe, you’ll find:

A supportive community that lifts each other up
Resources that inspire both technical and personal growth
Opportunities to connect, collaborate, and be seen
A place where dance becomes more than movement – it becomes confidence, health, and joy

BachataMe is still growing – the website is now informative, but new features and updates are constantly on the way.

The founder

I am Yasmin Casaca – A swedish entrepreneur, movement enthusiast, and passionate community builder.

With over 20 years of experience in martial arts, acrobatics, dance, and coaching, I’ve built businesses, created training concept, and coached both individuals and companies. I’ve been teaching since the age of 14 – and I know what it takes to lead, inspire, and build something that lasts.

Almost broke my back
At the age of 21, I almost broke my spine in an acrobatics accident. Since then, I’ve been living with herniated discs, sciatica, osteoarthritis – and later injured my neck with similar issues. Because of this, I had to give up several sports and career paths that once defined me.

Several surgeries was always on the table, but eventually I instead found incredible treatments – including laser therapy in Sweden (check our promo codes) – that have allowed me to make a comeback with the dance and more.

Inspire others
I believe my skills and drive, combined with my passion for inspiring others, allow me to turn visions into reality – both for myself and those around me. I remind myself to always stay humble, yet I’m a determined go-getter who challenges limiting beliefs and helps others see what’s truly possible.

Since I started dancing bachata, it has become my world; I dance intensly, both in Sweden and abroad. I’m also an every-other-week mom to my son – which makes me, in practice, an every-other-week dancer. The weeks I don’t have him, I pour my heart into bachata.

My mission
Bachata has given me even more confidence, freedom and joy – and now my mission is to build a community where every dancer can unlock their full potential.

Dance is just the beginning. You are the continuation.

Why I Created BachataMe

I created BachataMe to gather what I had always wished for as a dancer:
Inspiration. Knowledge. Community. Growth. All in one place.

This isn’t about being the best bachata dancer or the ultimate expert – it’s about creating a platform where dancers can grow together. By bringing in dancers, coaches, and experts, BachataMe build something bigger than ourselves. A place where passion meets progress, and where dance becomes a tool for confidence, connection, and joy.

I’ve spoken with countless dancers – on social dance floors, at international festivals, and here in Sweden. Many have opened up and shared with me what they love, what they struggle with, and what they feel is missing in today’s dance community and events.

They have spoken, and I have listened.

BachataMe is the platform that dancers like us have been waiting for – a space where we can grow, connect, and be inspired, while also filling the gaps that so many of us have felt.
