Beginners Cha-Cha — Group Class

Originating in Cuba during the 1950s, the cha-cha dance was created by composer Enrique Jorrin. The cha-cha is known for many of the elements that bring it to life including: the compact steps, hip and pelvic movements, and the basic “cha-cha-cha” that consists of two quick steps followed by a slower “cha-cha-cha” rhythm.

What to Wear

• Comfy clothing, nothing tight that may restrict movement and flexibility.
• Shoes you’re comfortable in. If you cannot walk in heels then you cannot dance in heels, so pick a flat or appropriate heel. We recommend The Dancer In You if you are looking for practice shoes. Please Note: proper ballroom shoes have a suede sole that should not be worn outside.
