Let’s review some of the most popular music genres among Quinceañeras:
Pop: This genre is always trending and it often includes our favorite artists both from past decades as Madonna or modern generations like Katy Perry. Pop music is a very good choice as a genre for your surprise dance.
It is very versatile and gives you a wide range for your choreography.

Hip Hop: Hip hop is not such thing as a simple dance although choreographies look spectacular. If you decide on this kind of genre you will have to rehearse hard but the result will be fantastic.

Reggaeton: It is very popular today and your friends would love to watch a reggaeton dance but your parents may not like some of the steps since they are very provocative. Check with them before choosing this genre. Pitbull, Daddy Yankee and Chino y Nacho are representing reggaeton artists.

Musical or movie: If you’re a fan of movies and musicals this idea is great for you. Also if your party is themed a specific time as the 20s or 60s you can include music from Grease, Gatsby or Chicago. If you want something more modern choosing something from High School Musical or Glee is another great alternative.

Salsa, Bachata or Merengue: As good Latinas as we are it seems we carry these rhythms in blood and at the first moment, music sounds our body starts to dance. Many Quinceañeras choose to make a mix of these Latin rhythms and thus give a taste of each to their guests and set up the party atmosphere.

If you can not decide for a specific genre and if you like more than one, ask a DJ or a choreographer to help you put together a medley that includes a bit of everything.
Once you have chosen the genre you want for your surprise dance hire the services of a choreographer to help you prepare your dance. Now the only thing you need is to rehearse, rehearse and rehearse!
