LA BOMBA PRODUCTIONS AUSTRALIA - HISTORY 
 
The concept of La Bomba was concieved one lazy sunny day by Chilean/ Australian promoter Natalie Stansfield while walking along the malecon in Havana, Cuba, July 1997. On returning to Adelaide in 1998, Natalie commenced her unique and entertaining Latino music radio show LA BOMBA on Radio Adelaide 101.5 FM. The aim of La Bomba  
 
was always to give exposure and support local Latino artists. 
 
As Natalie became aquainted with Adelaide's vast wealth of talented local Latin American musicians she commenced organising events. Natalie's extensive experience in community radio, marketing, journalism and multicultural youth project work laid the perfect foundations for the skills needed to run a dynamic business like LA BOMBA PRODUCTIONS AUSTRALIA. Natalie's first project was a resounding success organising the LATIN ALL STARS show featuring 6 Latin groups playing salsa, Latin hip hop, Andean funk, boleros and rumba. The concert was recorded and the Latin All Stars CD was released for promotional purposes. Natalie's biggest achievement to date has been the creation and evolution of the national TROPICANA latino groove FESTIVAL incorporating the national salsa dance competition.

Street Latin Dance Classes 
La Bomba's talented crew of Latin dance instructors are dedicated to providing a true Latino dance experience. 
Latin dance classes are popping up all over the place, but La Bomba teaches the authentic STREET style of Latin dance. La Bomba teaches you to dance the way Latino people dance at fiesta's and carnivals throughout Latin America and the Caribbean. It's a suave style of social dance that incorpoprates freestyle hip movements and foot work and is loads of fun with or with out a partner, unlike the formal technical styles of Latin Ballroom. 
La Bomba's instructors hail from Colombia, Cuba, Chile, Brazil, Peru, El Salvador, Uruguay and Australia. 
 
They are professional and friendly dancers that were born with a Latino spirit that they want to share with everyone. La Bomba are South Australia's largest Latin dance school and we specialise in Salsa, Samba, Merengue and Reggaeton. We teach 13 classes a week and have instructed around Australia and in Asia since 1999.
