Dance cha cha cha

Do the cha cha!
Cha cha - is one of the most popular latino dances. Cha cha moves are very similar to rumba moves, with one single difference - cha-cha-cha! This rhythm, so easy to remember, is obtained by division of the 4-th part of time. That why the dance has such name.
At the beginning the cha cha cha dance was a sort of rumba and mumbo, but in 1948 Enrike Horrin combined two latino dances in montuno. In this way a new, fascinating dance appeared. Horin's composition "Anganadora", what means "Delusion" was writed in 1953 and become very popular soon.
Dancers waited for the continuation of composition. A lot of performers began to play easy cha cha cha melody, and after short time almost every musician could perform cha-cha-cha.

A kind of break...
Acrobatics - "comes" in break with a lot of acrobats and gymnasts. The coolest acrobatics moves look like very difficult break downs - all these somersaults and others.
Capuero - this ancient art is partially breakdance foundator. Capuero moves are widely used by b-boys, for example: BOTY'98 and BOTY'99. One of the most impressionant moves: swip without arm lean.
Ties - each b-boy or b-girl, who learned the basic break moves thinks:"What's next?" If you feel yourself cool, then it's time to learn not only break moves, but also the ties between them. Ties represents the unconfundable style of every breakdancer. The ties assure breakdance beauty and its difficulty.
In fact, a tie is a change between two break moves, without speed and performance beauty loss. The more ties you have the more coole you are. Some of them aren't difficult, another requires time, like a power move.
