Cha-Cha is a happy,
carefree, cheeky, party-time dance. It is
normally thought of as part of
Latin-American
dance courses.
Music signature is 4/4 - that means 4 counts per bar
of music, with the fourth beat split in two to give
this dance its characteristic "2, 3, 4&1" rhythm.
Another way of counting cha-cha is "step, step, cha
cha cha". Keeping your steps compact and under your
body is a must.
