Cha-Cha
Energetic, playful, fun, developed from Cuban "triple mambo". Salsa clubs around town occasionally throw in a few cha-chas and people really get creative with this very popular dance. Originally known as the Cha-Cha-Cha the dance became popular about 1954 known as the slow Mambo tempo, there was a distinct sound in the music that people began dancing to, calling the step the "Triple" Mambo. Eventually it evolved into a separate dance, known today as the Cha Cha.

Rumba
Romantic, sensual, slow tempo, passionate, developed from Cuban music (son). Rumba is one of the definitive dances in competitions since in this dance the dancers must not only have clean technique and a strong connection in their partnership, but they must reach deep to find the passionate emotion required to compliment the music.
