Cha Cha
The dance teacher Pierre Lavelle from the United Kingdom, a founder of the
Latin American Faculty of the ISTD, visited Cuba in 1952 to discover mambo (some say, rumba)
danced with the triple step in place of the slow one. He brought this dance idea to Europe
and eventually created what is known now as ballroom Cha-cha-cha.

well as open, cross-over, parallel, and fifth position
