On behalf of Expert Village my name is Susan and this is Alex, we’re here at Yuca Lounge with Salsa Mia and today we’re going to teach you the basics of Cha-Cha-Cha. Okay so now what we’re going to work is an outside turn for the girl. In this turn girls you’re going to have to use your shoulders a lot okay. Ladies remember when you turn never turn with your feet; you must use your shoulders to turn just like a toy top. The legs are going to go follow the length your shoulder gives you. So what we’re going to do is 2, 3, Cha-Cha-Cha, 2, 3, Cha-Cha-Cha, turn 2, Cha-Cha-Cha, 2, 3, Cha-Cha-Cha, 2, 3, Cha-Cha-Cha, 2, 3, Cha-Cha-Cha. So girls, what you’re doing you’re going to be doing an inside turn so you’re turning counter clockwise okay. So it’s 2, 3, Cha-Cha-Cha, 2, 3, Cha-Cha-Cha, turn 2, Cha-Cha-Cha. So girls when you take the two step make sure you use your left shoulder a lot so you can have enough memento to turn.
