Bachata Dip Videos:
Here are various Bachata Dips - feel free to take a look and see if any resonates with you; you don't need to worry about the moves happening prior to the dip (unless it works for you to use them to lead into the dip); focus on what they're doing with the dip footwork, body positions, etc.
