Cha-Cha-Cha often abbreviated to Cha Cha, yet another form of dance you will see danced at Salsa parties. The Cha Cha Cha stems from Cuban origins and gets its name from the triple step sound made on the floor by dancers.

Once again, whilst dancers may get the occasional class in Cha Cha Cha, we are the only dance company which runs an 8 week progressive course. Come and join in and learn just what fun can be had dancing Cha Cha!
Please do not get confused with Ballroom Cha Cha Cha. Whereas Ballroom Cha Cha music is energetic and has a steady beat, Latin Cha Cha music is more sensual and can include complex polyrhythms.
Many Salsa dancers can find the hardest step to learn to dance Cha Cha is the first step. Unless you are used to dancing On2 ‘leaders’ always start with their left foot and ‘followers’ always with their right foot. With Cha Cha, it is the other way around, although ‘leaders’ may wish to start with their left foot by using it to transfer weight.
That said, the count for Latin Cha Cha is two, three, chachacha (on counts 4&5), six, seven, chachacha (on counts 8&1). REPEAT: two three chachacha ...
Nevertheless, many social dancers count "one, two, cha-cha-cha" and may find it difficult to make the adjustment to the correct timing of the dance.
Salsa Bristol is one of the longest-running Salsa and Latin dance schools in the South West region.
Over the 10 years we have been running, we have had students from all walks of life and of all ages (from 18 to 70s!) – besides running our weekly classes, parties, and special events, we have taught at charity events, primary schools (including children and adults with special needs), and even Red Arrows pilots!
Salsa Bristol's founder, Wayne, recognised how daunting it can be to go from a beginners level, to “improvers” – as a result, we were one of the first to bring in “jumpers” lessons to bridge the gap between these dance levels.
We have new courses for absolute beginners starting regularly.
Edwards Dance Studio can create your First Dance for your special day, whether you want to learn a specific dance or you have a piece of music that you wish to use. We can advise what dance styles will fit your music & choreograph a routine for your big day.
Latin classes are offered by Bristol Dance Co. Whether you are a beginner looking to take your first steps on the dancefloor, or if you are already dancing and you would like to improve your technique, Bristol Dance Company is here to help.
Ballroom Dancing consists of the Waltz, Slow Foxtrot, Quickstep, Tango and Viennese Waltz. In addition to these authentic rhythms, slow and quick rhythm dancing is also popular.
