Cha Cha Cha

Cha Cha Cha is an offshoot of the Mambo. In the slow Mambo tempo, there was a distinct sound in the music that people began dancing to, calling the step the "Triple" Mambo. Today it is a stylish partner dance of its own, with grounded attitude and accented movements connected to the rhythm itself. The dance consists of three quick steps (the “cha-cha-cha”) and two slow steps on the “2-3”: breaking (=stepping forward) on “2”, with the Cha-Cha steps falling on the “Gong Gong” (“4 &”).

If you have been dancing other styles, and have a strong foundation of timing and leading/following skills, this course will have you dancing Cha Cha Cha very quickly indeed.

I would like to enrol now!
 
The name “Cha Cha Cha” comes from the sound made by the shoes of the dancers on the floor.

Music
If you enjoy the soulful licks of Carlos Santana’s guitar mixed with the hypnotic percussion of the tumbao (pronounced “toom-baw”), then you will love the raw flavour of a real Cha Cha Cha by Edwin Bonilla, Little Johnny Rivero and Tito Puentes.

"Having had lessons in Latin Dance at four other dance studios before coming to Smooth Latin Groove, I can honestly say that I believe the way Ian structures the lessons and the friendly environment that he creates is second to none. Not only do you learn in a friendly and fun atmosphere but he structures the lesson so that you can learn the correct foundation moves first and then everything else flows on in logical sequence. Even the absolute beginner can pick up the steps while also catering for those who pick up the moves more quickly. You guys do a great job!!"
