Ballroom Dance Tip #4

-Cha-Cha-Cha-

The Cha-cha-cha is one of the International Latin dances originating in 1953 by Cuban composer Enrique Jorrin.

Music:  The music of the Cha-cha-cha is energetic with a steady beat.

The above shows a more classic sampling of Chachacha music

This video shows a sampling of more modern Chachacha music

Dance:  Steps are generally kept compact danced with minimum rise and fall.  

Remember, in Cha cha cha, the steps start on 2, NOT 1.  

Tomorrow I will go over the last of the International Latin dances, the Samba.

Grab your partner and hit the dance floor.  Let's dance!
