Get ready to learn the Cha Cha at Sunday July 6th's Ballroom Fusion Night! Though it started in the 1950's, Cha Cha today is danced to a wide selection of modern pop hits. Cha Cha is an easy-to-learn alternative (and stepping stone) to West-Coast Swing, and can be danced to much of the same modern music. Special guest instructor, Juan Uribe from Dance Forever studio, leads the 6pm Cha Cha lesson; Swing Time's Sam leads the 7pm Cha Cha/Swing Fusion lesson. (full details below)

Cha Cha Lesson — July 6th's beginning lesson
covers the Cha Cha, an extremely useful dance for dancing to modern music.
Cha Cha/Swing Fusion Lesson — July 6th's intermediate lesson
is Cha Cha vs Swing. In this fusion of Cha Cha & Swing Dancing, we'll cover some intermediate-level Cha Cha,
then use moves from the Cha Cha to widen everyone's swing dancing repertoire. (You can apply this new material
to a variety of swing dances, including East-Coast Swing, West-Coast Swing, Lindy Hop, and Charleston.)
We'll cover musical/timing/footwork similarities & differences.
Finally, we'll use concepts from swing dancing to invent a fancy new move in the Cha Cha!
Dance Lessons — Free with Admission!
