Footsteps Dancing

This morning we had Footsteps Dancing and we learnt the 'Cha Cha'.
It was a very simple dance to learn and was broken into 4 parts to learn. The Cha Cha is a partner dance and I was dancing with Harneet. The 4 parts we learnt it in were

  1. Basic Step - the girl steps back with their right foot and the boy steps forward and then back to the centre and you go, cha, cha, cha towards the front. Then you do it again but with the opposite foot and direction. Repeat once.
  2. Open Step - you release one hand to face the back and step with your middle foot and then go back to holding both hands and cha, cha, cha. Then do the same the other way. Repeat once.
  3. Cross Step - similar to basic step but you cross your feet (confusing to explain) and you do the cha, cha, cha. 
  4. Turn Step - open step but on the last step you spin and then do the cha, cha, cha.

I enjoyed doing this dance because it is to a beat and it is really simple. This would be my favourite dance we have done.
