Cha Cha became popular dance around 1954. It evolved from Mambo when dancers started to syncopate steps and sometimes was called "Triple Mambo". Triple step or Chasse is characteristic for Cha Cha Cha and usually it means simple steps: to side, close, to side. Would you like to see easy way to learn Cha?

I love your videos! They are so easy to understand! I searched for this because I need to dance as a school requirement, but now I am starting to get really interested with dancing :)
I'm really glad you are interested in dancing. Wish you to enjoy learning and practicing!
Hello Professor Egils. Greetings from Brazil. My name is José Carlos Lima. Tomorrow I'm going to start learning this routine with my partner. I have no words to say thank you for you huge generosity in teaching your knowledge, for free, to all of us around the world. I started learn dance almost 3 years and I never danced in my life. I must tell you that I'm not young but I just don't care. I decided that this is what I'm gonna do and keep on learning for the rest of my life. By the way I am a professional musician: Violinist, Singer and play eletric and classic guitar and music teacher. I must say that your rhythm and musicality is very good. It makes me think you have a music formation. Any way, if you will need help in any subject you do not understand in any style of music, I will be more than happy in helping you. Thanks a lot for your classes.
+zecalimazeca, thanks for appreciating our dance tutorials. Unfortunately I don't play any music instruments, but I still love listening to music and of course dace to it. Wish all of us enjoy both music 🎶 and dance 💃 movements!
Good practice for me and my friend,Thank you.
Always welcome
Hi Egils your dance instruction in this video is excellent for the complete novice. It would greatly improve my learning to dance if the other tutorials were delivered at the same pace and with similar instruction about the when to turn and move etc. I find the 1234 count difficult to follow, I have viewed your instruction video about the step and music beat but I am lost as to when I should turn and move in different directions. The other cha cha videos are much faster compared to the instruction on this video. A full cha cha dance routine with this style of instruction would be most welcome by many and not just myself, I am sure. That said, I found your videos to be the best on-line tutorials by far, but beyond the first cha cha basic cha cha video the other a little fast for the complete beginner.
Hi, Frank, thanks for your feedback and appreciation. I will put your idea to my future plans for Cha dance routines and figures. Best regards, Egils
Not as detailed as Salsa which I'm having trouble learning. Probably try Latin Cha Cha very soon. If your single guys, women love a man who can dance!
There is so much to learn in regards to the terminology alone! But truly so many other pro's who need to teach amateurs like on DWTS or in dance studios could benefit by observing your teaching methods. You have a very calm way of teaching. When we amateurs are learning it is so important to get the very basic arm movements and basic foot placement right before we can even begin to learn the steps. In my humble opinion I see people who learn a dance but don't have those basic shoulder, arm, hand ect. placements and it looks...well...incomplete. Well done!
+Edith Paul thanks, I'm very pleased to hear that you like my teaching style and methods. I think that ballroom and latin dancing technically is difficult enough and therefore we need as clear and easy description and demonstration of movements as possible. Thanks for your appreciation! Egils

Hey Egils!
Thank you very much for the video!
I have one question that troubles me lately and hope you could help---in Cha Cha basic side step/side close side, the count 4 (the first side step) is it one bent knee and one straight knee or 2 straight knees? I saw videos that side steps are 2 straight legs and also videos that show only count 1 is two straight legs. I'm very confused. Are they just style differences?
Thank you! I enjoyed this immensely 🤩🥳 I will try to do my basic with more love ❤️
I also use this to teach my students, thanks for this Sir Egris, easy to understand and learn. gratitude and admiration rom Philippines, More power!
Thanks Daniel for appreciating this video. Wish you to enjoy teaching your students!

Thanks again Egils. We pushed back the carpet and worked through most of this video last night (watched it 50 times!). Hoping to get the whole routine down by this evening. Getting the hip movement correct is my main problem. Great vid. Thanks again. Cheers Dom

Have a nice day, teacher. I'm practicing cha cha cha from your video now.
Great! Enjoy your Cha Cha practice.
Egils, when you trained for Latin competition, what exercises did you use to get yourself up to perform at the tempo speed of Cha Cha and not loose form, technique or style?
+Dancer2016 Adobe Sound & Music Tutorials, I suggest to dance in practice whole routine in different speeds of music. But before competition just warming up and dance competition without thinking, just feeling movement.
Egils Smagris , Waltz
Music keeps skipping. Bad edit
Question: What did you do to get your body-legs-feet to move with the tempo of Cha Cha without loosing timing and co-ordination?
If I slow the Cha tempo down a bit, I can keep up, but when I get to the standard tempo for Cha, I loose timing with the tempo and find it hard to keep up. The difficulty is moving into the forward check step and back and the back check step and forward (steps 2 & 3) during the basic figure. I tend to end up loosing speed at those steps.
Is it because step 2 is not a full weight step?
+Dancer2016 Adobe Sound & Music Tutorials, thanks for very good question. When we change time by playing faster music, we also have to change amount of movement otherwise we struggle to be in music. And this includes lesser weight transfer in checks. You are right on count 2 especially in check forward there isn't full weight transfer. Egils
Thank-you. That information made a big difference and yes, now I can stay with the beat and actually work the sequence with more musicality and flow. I also watched a few other videos of world renowned Latin dancers as "Michael Wentink" and "Max Kozhevnikov" (2 of my favourites, love their technique and style), and watching them shows the same thing you said.
