Choreographer's note: I have always wanted an easy cha cha to teach to my
beginner classes as a way of introducing them to a cha cha step. So finally,
with Karens input, I have come up with a what I hope is a manageable dance.
The cha cha steps will most probably be modified by those who dance it, to
small shuffle steps, but that's ok. We all tend to do that anyway for the
comfort and travel of the dance. While I picked the "Neon Moon" music to
dance to, the steps will lend themselves to any genre of 32 Count music,
fast or slow, so have some fun with this and feel free to let me know how
you enjoyed it.
